Southern Downs, Old Stanthorpe Rd Upgrade

Durack was awarded the contract to upgrade and widen Old Stanthorpe Road for Southern Downs Regional Council.

The scope of work included removing unsafe crests by excavation and widening existing road pavement widths. Tree clearing was also required to form new wider batters and drains and a 2 coat bitumen seal was applied to the new road pavement surface. Various precast box culvert structures were installed at major drainage paths under half/half contra traffic flow.

All works were completed under single lane traffic flow using temporary traffic signals.
