Repentance Creek Road Closure

Lismore City Council is continuing works to repair roads following significant flood and consequent landslide damage. Urgent work is required to reconstruct an embankment and replace a pipe on Repentance Creek Road at Turkey Creek adjacent 171 Repentance Creek Road. Unfortunately, due to safety for road users, the road must be fully closed during a portion of the works period.

What do the works involve?

• Remove old damaged concrete pipe and replace with larger capacity pipes and headwalls.
• Reconstruct embankment with rock fill
• Construct drainage chute to discharge water away from embankment

When will the works start?

• 25/05/2022 – Stop/Go traffic control between 6:30am – 6:00pm Monday to Sunday
• 30/05/2022 – Expect full 24-hour road closure until 13/06/2022 (please monitor electronic signage onsite, and Community Updates tab below for most up to date information)
• 13/06/2022 – Stop/Go traffic control between 6:30am – 6:00pm Monday to Sunday
• All closures will allow for pedestrian access through the work site

These works may be subject to delays due to weather events. If there is a requirement to change these hours, updates will be listed below in 'Community Updates'.

What are the traffic adjustments?

A detour will be available through Federal for motorists to remain on the sealed road network. A VMS board will be stationed at the junction of Eureka Road and Repentance Creek Road, and at Dunoon Road to notify road users of the detour. Information will be listed on northernrivers.myroadinfo.com.
