Level crossing upgrade: Mid-Western Highway, Caragabal, NSW – 12 to 14 September 2026

Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) is upgrading the level crossing at Mid-Western Highway, Caragabal, to improve safety for road and rail users.

This work is scheduled from 6:00am to 6:00pm, Saturday 12 September to Monday 14 September 2026, weather permitting. We will be working during the day only.

This upgrade will install boom gates and replace the flashing lights and bells to reduce the risk of collisions and near misses.

The project already delivered a new dedicated pedestrian crossing adjacent to Caragabal Public School.

This pedestrian crossing is currently passive. Until the new signals and boom gates are installed, please:

• Look. Listen. Think.
• Pay attention to the existing bells and warning lights.
• Take extra care when crossing

This upgrade is jointly funded by the Australian Government’s Regional Level Crossing Upgrade Fund (RLCUF), the NSW Government’s Level Crossing Improvement Program (LCIP) and ARTC. View the full program of NSW upgrades here.
