There will be digital messaging board installed on-site prior, informing road users of the commencement date. Native vegetation exclusion zones and tree protection measures will be established and maintained for the duration of the works.

The completed project will provide a number of benefits to the community.

  • Reconstruction of the pavement will address the existing poor condition and ongoing deterioration of the surface providing improved safety for road users
  • New road safety barriers in accordance with current safety standards will ensure a continuance of road safety
  • New line marking including audio tactile edge lane markings (rumble strips) will assist in countering road run-off accidents
  • Improved road shoulder treatments will provide vehicles travelling along the road a safer area to pull over in an emergency.

Access to driveways and properties located on this section of Exford Road will be maintained. Emergency vehicles will always be given escorted access through the works. Works will be programmed to minimise impacts for road users; however, we acknowledge there will be inconvenience to road users during construction.
