Changed traffic conditions and night work for Woolgoolga to Ballina upgrade

Motorists are advised of changed traffic conditions and night work on the Pacific Highway from Monday 8 to Sunday 14 July 2019 for the Woolgoolga to Ballina upgrade.

There will be no roadwork carried out on the Pacific Highway between Kew and the Queensland border from 6am Friday 12 to 6am Monday 15 July 2019 due to the high traffic volumes expected for the Queensland school holidays.

From Monday (July 8 2019) there will be four days of work on the Pacific Highway between Pimlico and West Ballina to carry out line marking and paving work. Motorists can expect traffic control and a reduced speed limit of 40km/h between 6am and 6pm.

Also from Monday (July 8 2019), there will be four nights of work on the Pacific Highway at Coolgardie for asphalting. Motorists can expect short stoppages and traffic control between 6pm and 6am.

There will also be two nights of work from Monday (July 8 2019), further south on the Pacific Highway between Devils Pulpit and New Italy, for asphalting and line marking. Motorists can expect lane closures and a reduced speed limit between 6pm and 6am.

Traffic on the Pacific Highway will be moved east onto a new section of road at Mororo, one lane in each direction. This temporary traffic change will maintain capacity on the road network while we continue to safely build the upgrade.

Additional changes to local roads

From Monday (July 8 2019), there will be five days of paving work on Eight Mile Lane at Glenugie. Motorists can expect a reduced speed limit of 40km/h and traffic control between 7am and 6pm.

Motorists are advised to drive to the conditions, and follow the direction of signs and traffic control. Transport for NSW thanks motorists for their patience during this time.
