Gympie Regional Council construction crews began improvements this week to one of Gympie CBD’s most used sections of road.
River Road, from Jaycee Way to Gladstone Street, will be given a facelift by way of new asphalt, kerb and channel, concrete medians, pavement, LED street lighting and affected resident’s driveways.
The work is budgeted at $510,000 and funded by Gympie Regional Council’s capital works program.
The region’s road network is vital infrastructure and contributes tremendously to how residents and visitors experience our part of the world.
This project will provide a safer driving experience for our road users.
This work is being carried out under traffic-controlled conditions to ensure the safety of road users and pedestrians.
Council staff have liaised with businesses and residents and arranged for alternative parking and property access.
