New signage on the Western Distributor installed in May 2005 for the Cross City Tunnel (covered). May 2005.

More new signage a little further east on the Western Distributor. The right-most arrow is for the bus-only crossover to the Druitt Street viaduct. May 2005.

Looking west where the Druitt Street Viaduct meets the main westbound carriageway. The red-coloured ramp on the right is the eastbound bus crossover. May 2005.

Alpha-numeric signage installed in early June 2005 on the Bathurst Street viaduct eastbound. June 2005.

Dangerous Goods etc. signage on the Bathurst Street viaduct. Unsure how the lane arrangements will work out in this location, but i suspect the existing bus lane may become a Bathust St ONLY lane and the two existing general traffic lanes thus becoming CCT ONLY. May 2005.

The western portal (Bathurst St entrance) of the CCT. May 2005

Harbour Street, looking south from Bathurst St during construction of the Harbour Street portal of the CCT. July 2003.

Signage on Bourke Street in Woolloomoloo showing that the Eastern Distributor entrance ramp will be closed for 2 years from Jan 2003. Im not quite sure why the ramp hasnt yet reopened, 30 months after it closed. When it does reopen, traffic from William Street will be able to enter the ED, merging with CCT traffic before merging again with the ED traffic. July 2003.

Directional signage on William Street acknowledging the closure. The "Alternative Route" is quite ridiculous actually, it takes you all the way to the other side of Kings Cross Tunnel, makes you do a u-turn and sends you all the way back to College Street. From there Metroad 1 southbound is reached via Oxford, Flinders and South Dowling Streets. April 2004.

Looking east into the Kings Cross Tunnel with construction of the CCT portals underway. July 2003.

Similar view, this time with the tunnel nearing completion. May 2005.

Looking east at the new eastbound ramp from Ward Ave into the right lanes of Bayswater Road. This ramp was designed so traffic from Kings Cross can access Paddington and the Cross City Tunnel without weaving across four lanes of traffic. May 2005.

Looking east along Bayswater Road, the construction on the left is for the eastbound CCT lanes to join eb Bayswater Rd. July 2003.

Similar view but much closer to completion. May 2005.

Looking east down Craigend Street. July 2003.

Same view, this time with the CCT approaches nearly completed. May 2005.

Gantry sign westbound on Craigend Street approaching the tunnel mouth. May 2005.

ID signs, with strange looking font and corners that have been rounded too much, McLaughlan Ave, Rushcutters Bay. June 2005.

The CCT will be the signposted route to Darling Harbour and City North (although there is no signage at the western end telling you how to get to Darling Harbour) according to this little sign on New South Head Road. June 2005.
