Transport for NSW (TfNSW) has advised drivers of oversize and overmass vehicles on the New England Highway that they may have to park up for an hour on Monday, July 18.

Motorists are advised of changed overnight traffic conditions on New England Highway to carry out maintenance work between Burtons Lane and Koolbury Flats Row north of Muswellbrook.

TfNSW will carry out the work, which includes removing an overhead structure that houses point-to-point speed cameras.

TfNSW said oversize and over mass vehicles could be impacted and may need to park for one hour between 9:30pm and 10:30pm while the gantry is being removed.

The work is part of early enabling work for the New England Highway bypass of Muswellbrook.

Work will be carried out from 7pm on Monday, July 18 to 5am on Tuesday, July 19.  The work is expected to be completed in one shift, weather permitting.

Temporary single lane closures, traffic control and a reduced speed limit of 40km/h will be in place, which may affect travel times.

Motorists are advised to drive to the conditions and follow the directions of signs and traffic control.
