The Angels Beach Drive and Bangalow Road Lane Improvement project is progressing well, with works currently underway to extend Sheather Street and connect it with Angels Beach Drive.
Intersection widening works are also continuing on Bangalow Road between Kerr Street and the roundabout, where two-way traffic is being maintained.
Ballina Shire Council's contractors will soon commence intersection widening works on Bangalow Road, between Moon Street and the Angels Beach Drive/Bangalow Road roundabout. This section of Bangalow Road will be temporarily closed while these works are underway.
From Monday 4 April to June 2022 (weather and site conditions permitting), the following traffic changes will be in place:
To Ballina CBD from Angels Beach Drive
Right turn at the roundabout and left onto Kerr Street. Access to Ballina Central Shopping Centre will remain unchanged.
To Ballina CBD from Tamarind Drive
Right turn at Kerr Street.
To North Ballina/Airport from Bangalow Road towards Tamarind Drive
Detour via Fox and Kerr Streets.
To Lennox Head
Detour via Fox and Kerr Streets, or use The Coast Road via East Ballina.
Access to the Kentwell Community Centre via the Moon Street entrance only.
Traffic will still be able to turn left in and right out of Moon Street during these works.
To alleviate congestion please allow extra travel time and avoid nonessential travel during peak morning and afternoon periods. Speed limits will be reduced to 40kmph in construction zones and temporary pedestrian and cyclist detours will be in place around work zones.
Council thanks the community for their patience and understanding during this essential upgrade.
