Bike Riders are advised to temporarily avoid the westbound lane on Cooyong street leading to the intersection with Northbourne Ave.
The on-road cycle lane has been obstructed by construction work and as yet there is no protection for cyclists using the area.
The construction site beside this section of road will be in progress for two years, so it is vital to come up with a traffic management plan that will keep riders safe.
Pedal Power has been in contact with the ACT Government -Traffic Management and Safety team - and they have advised they are working on a traffic management solution that will be appropriate for bike riders AND motorists.
Until this new measure is implemented, please try to avoid using the intersection.
