Northern toll plaza precinct upgrade - Sydney Harbour Bridge precinct

Project overview

The experience of being on the deck of the Sydney Harbour Bridge is now more accessible with lifts to the bridge’s walkway now operational. On average, more than 2000 cyclist trips are taken across the Sydney Harbour Bridge Cycleway every weekday. That makes the Sydney Harbour Bridge Cycleway the busiest link in the Metro Sydney Bike Network. Transport for NSW is progressing plans to upgrade access to the Sydney Harbour Bridge cycleway. Roads and Maritime uses innovative technology to monitor the condition of various parts of the bridge, help schedule maintenance and inspect difficult to reach areas of the Harbour Bridge. Roads and Maritime Services maintains all steelwork on the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Protecting the intricate web of steelwork from corrosion is the most important factor in conserving the structure. Transport for NSW will undertake remediation works on the slopes of the off ramp from the Bradfield Highway between Sunday 12 July and Thursday 8 October 2020. We are proposing to replace the arch maintenance units that crews use to perform routine inspections, repair work and painting on the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The new units will provide better and safer access so we can preserve this iconic structure well into the future. As part of the commitment to maintain the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Roads and Matitime conducts ongoing maintenance to ensure that this national icon is preserved for years to come. Transport for NSW is improving the northern toll plaza precinct. The improvement work includes removing the unused toll booths and toll office from the northern end of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Transport for NSW has a coordinated approach to the continuous improvement and maintenance of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
