Nagambie-Locksley Road upgrade resumes

Wednesday, 21 November, 2018

Upgrade works on the Nagambie-Locksley Road have recommenced this week, following a significant delays due to weather conditions, the need to relocate Telstra Services at the site and the revision of the original project plan.

Group Manager Community Assets, Jeff Saker said some wet weather at the time created some delays and culvert works revealed a lack of existing crushed rock pavement in parts of the road.

“As a result of this finding, the design needed to be revised to strengthen the road, with an increase in the depth of pavement to better carry heavy traffic,” Mr Saker explained.

“The new design has been completed and we have now resumed works.”

“I’d like to thank the community for their ongoing patience during this delay and look forward to delivering on this project which we hope to complete in early 2019, subject to weather conditions,” Mr Saker said.
