Resurfacing Works – Redland Bay Road, Thornlands

Pavement repair and resurfacing works – Cleveland Redland Bay Road, Thornlands

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) advises that pavement repair and resurfacing works will take place in both directions on Cleveland Redland Bay Road between Thornlands Road and South Street, Thornlands.

These works are being undertaken as part of TMR’s maintenance program to improve the road surface and enhance road safety for all road users.

Work activities

• Removal and replacement of asphalt.
• Reinstatement of temporary line marking
• Final line marking.

Timing

• Works are scheduled to start mid June 2024 and are expected to take approximately one week to complete, weather and construction conditions permitting.
• Typical construction hours will be from 7pm to 5am, Sunday to Friday. Night works are required for road user safety and to avoid what would otherwise be extensive traffic queuing and disruption to the road network. While the majority of the works will be undertaken at night, some Saturday or other out of hours works may be required.
• Final line marking works to improve the reflectivity and longevity of the road line marking will be applied approximately six weeks after the completion of road resurfacing to allow for adequate curing.

Expected impacts

• Temporary changed traffic conditions: Road shoulder and lane closures, roadworks speed limit reductions and short-term traffic disruptions. Please allow extra time when planning your travel and follow the directions of roadside signage and traffic controllers.
• Temporary construction noise: Nearby residents and businesses may experience a short term increase in noise, dust, and odour during the works. Reversing beepers and flashing lights will be used on vehicles for safety.

On completion, TMR officers will continue to review the site for up to three months. During this time TMR will assess the work undertaken for longevity and quality. In some cases, TMR may need to request further work at the location to rectify any defects.

Every effort will be made to minimise impacts on the local community and surrounds.

TMR appreciates your patience and cooperation while these important works are carried out.
