Currently one lane of traffic is open between Whitney and Stanger Roads. During investigation works for the permanent design it was noted that the open lane was at risk of failure due to scour and erosion. A temporary solution using rock to buttress the open face was developed and works were completed last week. Further works are ongoing to repair damaged temporary pavement along Stony Chute Road.

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.
