The first five roads to be restored under Lismore City Council's Landslip Restoration Package have now commenced, as Council embarks on a multi-year process to reconnect communities and villages impacted by the 2022 natural disasters.
These initial priority sites are:
- Stony Chute Road, Stony Chute (near Zouch Road)
- Cawongla Road, Larnook (near Martin Road)
- Oakey Creek Road, Georgica (near McLennan Road)
- Terania Creek Road, Terania Creek (near Lawler Road)
- Wyrallah Road / Emily Street, Wyrallah (near Bridge Street)
Up to 60 damages will be repaired through to late 2027 under the package, which is jointly funded by the Commonwealth and NSW Governments under the Disaster Recovery Funding Arrangements.
CMC Hull JV – a joint venture between CMC Group and JF Hull Holdings – has been selected as the construction contractor to deliver works on Council's behalf. To support the effort, CMC Hull JV has established a site office and storage yard on Blue Knob Road in Blue Knob, north of Nimbin.
Motorists may notice increased heavy vehicle movement, noise and dust as work is undertaken, and are asked to please observe traffic controls including 'stop-go' directions from ground personnel and all traffic lights in operation.
Forward schedules for landslip restoration works are now available via Lismore City Council's new Project Pipeline, www.lismore.nsw.gov.au/Building-and-planning/Flood-Restoration-Portfolio/FR-Landslip-Restoration-Package
Lismore City Council thanks residents and visitors for their support as it works to rebuild and reconnect our roads and communities as soon as possible.
