\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\nAs part of the Selfs Point Sewer Transformation, TasWater will be closing the city-end of the Intercity Cycleway next week to remove several large trees alongside for the new pipeline.<\/p>\n
The closure will be between the Tasman Bridge and Regatta Grounds car park from Monday 16 to Friday 20 March, between 9 am and 4 pm. The cycleway will be open outside those times.<\/p>\n
While people going to and from the north can detour from Bay Street via Letitia and \u00a0Argyle\/Campbell streets, it\u2019s trickier for people coming over the Bridge, especially as the ferry doesn\u2019t run during the day as an alternative.<\/p>\n
The closure pretty much rules out road bikes on the bridge if you\u2019re heading south unless you want to brave riding on the Tasman Highway.<\/p>\n
\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
The detour for the bridge involves crossing the slip lane off the highway that connects to the Domain Highway, and onto a rough gravel path that runs alongside the Queens Domain and connects into gravel paths.<\/p>\n
Some of the gravel paths are difficult to ride, especially the transitions at Lower Domain Road and Davies Avenue, so you may have to get off and walk in places.<\/p>\n
Taswater has apologised for the inconvenience to riders.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe understand the Intercity Cycleway is a valued community facility, and we appreciate your patience as we deliver this important infrastructure upgrade for Hobart\u2019s future.\u201d<\/p>\n
The dates and times of the closure may be changed if weather conditions require it.<\/p>\n
