    COMPLETED WORKS

    Pavement Investigations

    During July, Council completed pavement investigations involving drilling operations on the following roads:

    • Rock Valley / Cawongla Road
    • Crofton Road


    Cawongla Road

    During July, flood remediation drainage works were completed on Cawongla Road.


    CURRENT WORKS

    Nimbin Road

    Roadworks have commenced on two landslip sites on Nimbin Road that have been identified as significantly impacted by the February 2022 natural disaster. Funding was secured through the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangement (DRFA). This funding is allocated to repair damage sustained during the February 2022 natural disaster only.

    Works have already commenced at both sites, with Site 1 is approximately 1 km from Nimbin and Site 2 is approximately 4 kms from Nimbin. The works are currently on program at Site 1 with bulk earthworks now completed and 80 piles out of 240 are now installed. In the following weeks, concrete works are due to commence. At Site 2, there is an approximately 2 weeks delay due to the requirement to construct additional erosion protection to stop the soil washing away in heavy rain. The gabion erosion protection will be completed this week and pile installation will commence in 2 weeks’ time.

    The works are expected to occur over 9 months from mid-May 2023 subject to weather, contractor, and material availability. This will involve piling and retaining wall construction works to allow repair of the landslips, reconstruction of pavement, reinstatement of road and guardrail barriers along with installing signs, guideposts, and line marking. Traffic control lights remain in place and existing single lane traffic control will remain in place during the works period. Council would like to thank the residents of the region for their patience during this time.


    Pavement Investigations

    Council staff are continuing to perform pavement investigations involving drilling operations on the following roads:

    • Blue Knob Road
    • Jiggi Road

    Council plans to undertake roadworks on sections of Jiggi Road.

    This planned work is proudly funded by both the New South Wales (NSW) and the Australian Governments.

    Where are the roadworks?

    The roadworks will apply to numerous sections on Jiggi Road between Nimbin Road and Mountain Top Road.

    Why do the roadworks?

    The roadwork will improve road conditions and associated safety, and funding has been allocated due to the February and March 2022 flooding events.

    What do the roadworks involve?

    The roadwork is to improve road safety through the following:

    • Road surface: Improve the surface of the road in places. Road to be raised approximately 150mm.

    • 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.

    • Driveway adjustment: Adjust access to driveways affected by the wider road footprint as required.

    These works will be completed under single lane traffic control.

    When do the roadworks start?

    Works will be undertaken between August 2022 and February 2023. Once works commence, they should take approximately 5-6 months to complete (weather permitting).
