Let us help one another during this tough stretch.
Update of Green Island Road Upgrades
Traffic and Parking
A full road closure at the intersection of Main South Road and Church Street will be required for the construction of the new roundabout from approximately early-August to early-October 2022.
The road closure is shown on the below map. The majority of Main South Road will remain open and we encourage all vehicles to use detours either over the motorway or via Abbotsford.
Access to the businesses and residents properties on the northern side of the roundabout will be via the temporary driveway at Harraways, as detailed in the photo.
Roundabout
The majority of works have been completed on the northern side of the roundabout. Once the conditions clear, the footpath and driveways will be asphalted and the temporary fencing removed.
The final section of kerb and channel, footpath and landscaping is currently under construction.
Upon completion of the above works, the road will be closed and the full depth reconstruction of the pavement will commence. This remains on track for the beginning of August.
Raised Crossings
Construction on the southern side of the raised table located opposite Green Island Memorial Park is well underway. Traffic lights are in place and traffic is alternating flow (operation 24hrs per day).
Progress has been slowed due to the wet weather. However, we are hoping to have the works completed and traffic management removed by the end of Monday the 25th of July
Project Overview
The works remain progressing well and the full road closure for the intersection improvements is set to occur in early-August, ahead of schedule. A link to a video outlining a project overview of the Green Island Road Safety Improvements.
