They didn't close Five Islands Road. They closed Springhill Road from
Cringila intersection with Five Islands Road north to I think Masters Road.
It was opened again by 1 pm when I was able to get back to Springhill
Plant, it was only closed for 2 or 3 hours at most. I did see some trains
running but someone else may have more info on what was affected, if
anything.
