Update on Roadworks –

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) would like to provide an update regarding the Mt Spec slope stabilisation night works.

The contractor’s availability has been delayed due to heavy rainfall in Kuranda.

As a result, night works on Mt Spec Road will now commence on Wednesday, 3 July, and will be extended until Friday, 4 October.

Night works including full temporary road closure will occur from:

Wednesday 3 July to Friday 4 October  

With a working roster of 10 days on 4 days off between 6pm – 6am

Friday night road closure will occur 7pm and reopen 6am Saturday.

Please find attached updated Notice of Works including a calendar with scheduled works specific to Mt Spec Road. Please note these may be subject to change due to weather conditions, contractor availability and construction progress.

Mount Spec Road in its entirety will be closed during the night works, with provision for Queensland Emergency Services and parents who will be required to retrieve sick students only.

The night works will take place based on 10 working days and 4 days-off (10:4) roster for the duration of the slope stabilisation project.  Each Friday night of the work schedule, the road will be closed at 7pm and reopen 6am Saturday morning.

If you require further information about these works, please contact the Northern District Customer and Stakeholder Management team using the below contact details. We thank you for your understanding.

Kind regards
