are restricted:

All other traffic movements are possible; however, there may be delays as capacity through the area is reduced. Southbound traffic heading along The Strand will be most affected with only one southbound lane open.
The work forms part of the major changes being made to the road layout of the area including The Strand/Ronayne Street, The Strand/Parnell Rise and Stanley Street/Beach Road intersections.
Grafton Road/Stanley Street intersection: Until the end of September, major services work is being undertaken at the Grafton Road/Stanley Street intersection everyday between 7am and 7pm.
All traffic movements, including access to the motorway are being maintained throughout the work. There may however be some delays as major changes are being made to lane markings.
The changes are required to allow for work on sewer and
storm-water lines to be undertaken.
Motorists are asked
to use alternative routes where possible.
Pedestrians should take care and be aware of restrictions to footpaths and changes to intersections.
Temporary cones and barriers are in place throughout work areas.
Transit thanks all road users and residents for their co-operation.
