Lord Baden Powell Drive upgrade nearing completion

12 December 2023

Works to upgrade the western end of Lord Baden Powell Drive are progressing well, with the road expected to re-open to traffic prior to Christmas with reduced speed limits in place.

In recent weeks the final asphalt seals have been applied to the road surface and line marking has taken place.

Monday 18 December remains the target date to reopen the road to traffic, however the timing will depend on the completion of some vital road safety compliance work to ensure the road meets Australian standards.

This includes installation of guard rails, vehicle signage and pedestrian signage.

Once the required safety measures are complete the road can be reopened, however residents are reminded that the site is still a worksite, and a reduced speed limit will be in place until late January when the pedestrian paths are complete.
