The Department of Transport and Main Roads would like to advise that geotechnical inspections for Mount Spec Road will commence this Monday 30 March 2020 until Thursday 9 April 2020.
Geotechnical inspections will occur from the gates at the bottom of the range through to the start of Paluma Village.
Monday 30 March 2020 to Thursday 9 April 2020
Work Hours: 7.00am to 4.30pm, Monday to Sunday
Weather conditions permitting
During the inspections, road users are advised of changed traffic conditions including single lane closures, speed reductions, roadwork signage and on site traffic controllers to safely guide motorists through the inspection area and keep workers safe. Please slow down when travelling through the inspection area – road safety is your responsibility too.
Mount Spec Road will be reduced to single lane width through the inspection area. To minimise disruption, the inspections have been planned in stages with advanced warning signs to notify road users of these changes, however some delays may still be experienced. On occasion, full lane closures will be required throughout the works where there will be no access between the Bruce Highway and Paluma via Mount Spec Road. The wait time during these full road closures can be up to 15 minutes, please factor this additional travel time into your journey.
Should you have any questions, please contact the Customer and Stakeholder Management Team on 1800 625 648.
