FAQs

How will the upgrade improve safety and traffic flow?

The construction of the roundabout will reduce the speed of traffic as road users enter the intersection, decreasing the likelihood of accidents and increasing safety.

Why is Council not installing traffic lights?

Traffic assessments have found that a roundabout is the best solution for this location for the required traffic volumes and to maintain traffic flow.

How long will construction take?

It is expected that it will take three weeks to complete the works, with some additional short-term works continuing without interruptions to traffic following that.

Will there be any disruptions to traffic?

When the intersection of Boundary Road and Troups Road South/Davis Road is closed there will be a detour route via Dohertys Road, Hopkins Road and Mount Cottrell Road, however, there are additional roads available to avoid the intersection. We encourage commuters to plan ahead.

When will the works occur?

Works will be conducted from 7am to 5pm Monday to Friday, in addition there may be Saturday or night works to complete certain stages of the works.

Disruptions will include noise, dust and trucks entering and exiting the site.

What about the rest of Boundary Road?
