Recent geotechnical investigations have detected evidence of slope instability within the parkland adjacent to Sobraon Street. This is due to the loose sandy material and the steep topography of the site.
Council has been closely monitoring the slope for movement and maintained a single lane closure to minimise further movement.

The design is nearing completion with construction scheduled to commence in late June.

This project is jointly funded under the Federal Government’s Local Roads and Community Infrastructure (LRCI) Program and the Queensland State Government COVID Works for Queensland Program.
