Sydney crane arm cleared almost a week on

A MAJOR inner Sydney traffic route is finally back in action, after a crane arm that caught fire and collapsed onto a major road last week was removed.

The Transport Management centre says a crane jib that collapsed on Tuesday was finally removed on Sunday afternoon after days of work by clean-up crews.

Hundreds of people were evacuated from the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) construction site and surrounding buildings during the emergency, which closed Broadway and caused traffic chaos.

Traffic finally returned to normal on Broadway between Wattle Street and Jones Street in Ultimo, with three lanes available for traffic in each direction.

The speed limit has returned to 50km/h and Abercrombie Street has also reopened at Cleveland Street.

But Wattle Street will remain closed between Broadway and Thomas Street for the next few days while engineers continue to stabilise parts of the building site that were damaged when the crane fell.

Citybound drivers are still able to use the left turn lane from Broadway into Wattle Street.

WorkCover, emergency services and developer Lend Lease have launched investigations into the fire and the collapse of the 65-metre crane's boom.
