Riverbank Road - Pavement Overlay (Nov 2022)

Single lane traffic control will be in place as Council completes stabilisation pavement overlay works to Riverbank Road. The works will apply to a section of Riverbank Road, to be completed over three weeks. Works are expected to start late November 2022 subject to weather, contractor, and material availability.

Funding has now been secured through Transport for NSW. This funding is allocated to repair damage sustained during the February 2022 natural disaster only. The following section has been identified based on pre and post February 2022 assessments. Additional works for Riverbank Road will continue to be assessed and reviewed.

Works will include:

• Road surface: Improve the surface of the road in places.
• Signs and line marking: Line marking and guideposts.
• Vegetation management: Manage roadside vegetation to remove obstacles, improve sight distances, and clearances for signage.
• Drainage maintenance: Re-excavate open drains and remove flood sediment as required. Minor drainage works will be completed prior to pavement works commencing.
• Driveway adjustment: Adjust access to driveways affected by the wider road footprint as required.

Road users are advised to follow signage and expect delays as these works are completed.
