DRIVERS on the Ipswich Motorway could face delays over the next week as construction crews carry out road upgrades.

A long stretch of the Ipswich-bound lanes on the motorway was closed for 19 hours last weekend so underground drainage works could be installed beneath the road.

This week, the eastbound Brisbane lanes will be closed during certain hours at Redbank to remove a bridge and to install drainage works and gantries.

Regional director for Metropolitan Region, Miles Vass, said the works were essential to protect the millions of dollars worth of work already undertaken on Ipswich Motorway upgrades.

Last weekend the westbound lanes of the motorway were closed between 5pm on Saturday to midday on Sunday.

During these works all Ipswich and Logan Motorway traffic heading Ipswich-bound was diverted at the Goodna/Redbank exits at Gailes, along the Brisbane Road service road.

Motorists re-entered the motorway via the Goodna on-ramp near William Street.

Major works will also be undertaken this week between Redbank and Wacol, including removal of the existing Law Street pedestrian bridge at Redbank.

Traffic on the Ipswich Motorway heading to Brisbane will be diverted off the motorway at Brisbane Road, Redbank, during the following times:

From 7pm on Friday, May 14, to 5am on Saturday, May 15.

From 5pm on Saturday, May 15, to midday on Sunday, May 16.

From 7pm on Sunday, May 16, to 5am on Monday, May 17.

Brisbane-bound traffic will be diverted via Brisbane Road at Redbank through to Brisbane Terrace at Goodna.
