These 44 Black Spot projects include intersection upgrades, safer pedestrian facilities, road widening and signage and lighting infrastructure that improves safety for all road users.
The projects were recommended by the Queensland Black Spot Consultative Panel, which comprises local stakeholders to ensure nominations of the highest priority and importance to the local community are recommended for approval.
