NOTIFICATION OF WORKS ALONG GRAVEL PIT ROAD

Council has commenced the Culvert Replacement Program across the region and has identified a section of Gravel Pit Road as a key priority area within this Program.

The estimated $275,000 culvert renewal project on Gravel Pit Road has been fully funded by the Cassowary Coast Regional Council and will include the replacement of one aged culvert crossover to ensure our road infrastructure remains viable well into the future. Benefits include improved drainage flow, improved road safety, and improved infrastructure life expectancy of up to 100 years.

The project delivery will commence on Tuesday 14th May 2024, weather permitting. The works are expected to take three to four weeks to construct, weather and site conditions permitting.

Please be informed there will be multiple temporary water cut-off scheduled during this works period. The water main will be temporarily shut off to facilitate watermain relocation aspect of this culvert renewal. A 24 hour notice period will be given prior to the water being shut off to all affected landowners. All water shut offs will last a maximum of 4 hours.
Traffic conditions will be maintained during construction under traffic control with minor delays expected. Council asks residents to plan their journey accordingly and apologises for any inconvenience experienced during construction.
