Cairns Regional Council wishes to advise that a permanent overnight road closure of Lake Morris Road will be introduced from next Tuesday night (6 April).
Access will be restricted for motorists each night, between the hours of 8pm and 8am, in an effort to reduce the instances of hooning disturbances and other antisocial behaviours.
All hours road access will be possible for cyclists and pedestrians. However, caution is advised as authorised vehicles may operate at all times on the road above the gate.
The access gate, which has been constructed below Campbell's Lookout, will allow vehicles to exit to the Cairns Western Arterial Road, however the gate will prevent unauthorised uphill vehicle access during the closure times.
CCTV surveillance will be operational and warning signs in place detailing the closure times.
Unauthorised vehicles found on the road between 8pm and 8am may be fined.
