Ballina Shire Council is pleased to announce The Coast Road, Lennox Head, has reopened following essential maintenance and reconstruction works.
The project, which began in November, involved reconstructing a key section of The Coast Road between Pat Morton Lookout and the North Creek Road/Byron Bay Road roundabout.
With the works now complete, both lanes of traffic have reopened, ensuring smoother and safer travel for all road users.
Final line marking is scheduled for January 2025. These minor works will not require any road closures and will be completed under traffic control.
This project was funded by the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program and involved a full pavement reconstruction with new pavement and bitumen resurfacing.
Council would like to thank the community for their support and patience while we completed this essential maintenance. We are committed to delivering a safe and reliable road network for our community.
These works are separate to the damaged road shoulder on the southbound lane near Pat Morton Lookout. This landslip site will be repaired under natural disaster funding recently approved by the State Government. The project is in the initial design phase and construction is not anticipated until later in 2025.
