Highway surfacing works
DECK surfacing works are to start on the South Mossman River Bridge on the Captain Cook Highway.
A Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) said the works were part of their regular bridge maintenance program to ensure the continued safety and reliability of bridges on the state-controlled road network.
Crews will be on site between 6am and 6pm from Monday, April 28 to Wednesday, May 14, weather and construction conditions permitting, excluding public holidays and Sundays.
“For the safety of road users and maintenance crews, changed traffic conditions will be in place including temporary speed limit reductions and single lane operation under coordination of traffic controllers and/or traffic signals while the works are carried out,” the spokesman said.
“Nearby properties may experience noise associated with the works, such as the sound of trucks, light machinery and vibrations while the work is carried out.
“Intermittent full closures of the road will be required at times to carry out the works. Road users can expect delays of up to 15-minute periods during the full closures.
“Road users should plan their journeys accordingly.”
