28th June 2022 - Project Wrap Up

During the 28 February natural disaster, Boomerang Creek at Dunoon Road over-topped the embankment causing significant damage on the downstream side.

Restoration of this section of the road was prioritised with emergency funding after the initial assessments by geotechnical engineers deemed the remaining embankment unsafe.

Transport for NSW works crew, under Council supervision, carefully reconstructed the embankment by using rock. It was a difficult project to manage due to environmental restraints, extended periods of wet weather and associated delays due to saturated pavement material.

We would like to thank the community for its patience with a long detour in place for the majority of the works.
