Motorists are now enjoying four lanes on Mitchell Freeway northbound from Hutton Street to Cedric Street.
In addition to the new lane, upgrades also included:
- Installed concrete barriers
- Added a double exit lane to Cedric Street
- Upgraded street lighting
- Modified the CCTV camera locations and Vehicle Detection Stations
- Constructed three new emergency stopping bays
Freeway landscaping
With the project now complete, there is limited space beside the freeway which is not suitable for replanting. As a result, we are focusing revegetation efforts alongside the southbound widening works from Cedric Street to Vincent Street.
This replanting will occur once the southbound construction works are complete and will be timed to coincide with the first rains to increase survival rates.
