Commencement of works

Stage one is complete.

Earthworks and drainage for the new inbound lanes (between Gonzales and Woolner Road) were completed in August 2011.

As part of these works, the material was left to settle under tarpaulins. It has since been identified that the material needs longer to rest to allow for maximum possible settlement of the road embankment which is built on marine mud.

Stage two

Duplication works commencing in June 2013 are expected to be completed by end of 2013.
