Council road construction crews are working on five major projects this month, and road maintenance crews are working on another 15.<\/p>\n

Roads portfolio chair Cr Gavin Jones told Wednesday’s Council meeting construction crews recently completed works on Ellesmere Road, and had widened and sealed a 300m section of Kearneys Road near Kumbia.<\/p>\n

Ellesmere Road will later get a full width bitumen seal as part of Council’s reseal program, he said.<\/p>\n

This month, construction crews are working on:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Widening and sealing Crumpton Road in Blackbutt, where earthworks have been completed and the first seal is expected within two weeks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
    • Widening and sealing Franks Road in Blackbutt, where the first seal has been applied and the final seal is expected in October<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        \n
      • Pavement rehabilitation on the southern side of Kingaroy Town Hall’s access lane, which is now 60 per cent complete and should be finished next month<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
          \n
        • Widening a concrete footpath in Fitzroy Street, Nanango where the first section between Flemings Garage and Price Busters has been completed, and the balance is expected to be finished in a few weeks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
            \n
          • Shoulder widening on a 1.2km stretch of Corndale Road at Memerambi, east of Couchman’s Road, where the first 450m of bitumen seal has been completed, and the rest is expected to be sealed by December<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Meanwhile, maintenance crews are carrying out grading on McGillvray Road, Rocky Creek Road and Reeve Road at South Nanango; McIllhaton Road at Booie; Tessmanns Road North and Schellbachs Road in Kingaroy; and Stonelands Road and Kilrush Road at Stonelands. <\/strong><\/p>\n

            The crews are also carrying out pavement repair on First Avenue in Kingaroy; pavement rehabilitation on Silverleaf Road at Silverleaf; Cyclone Debbie restoration works on Bookless Road at Haly Creek, and Ellesmere Road and Tucker Road at Ellesmere; culvert renewal on Stonelands Road; and work on Byee Road’s shoulders.<\/p>\n

            During the past month the crews had carried out gravel resheeting on Tarong Railway Road; shoulder resheeting and pavement repair on Mt Stanley Road and Runnymede Road, Nanango; gravel resheeting on Ironpot Road and Kumbia-Chahpingah Road; and pavement rehabilitation on Silverleaf Road.<\/p>\n

            Cr Jones said three other projects have been submitted to the 2017 Resilient Infrastructure (Betterment) Fund for funding.<\/p>\n

            They are Manar Road, Johnstons Road and Broad Creek Road.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
