About the project

We are planning to upgrade the junctions of the Bass Highway with Preolenna Road and Ewingtons Road in Flowerdale.

This upgrade will include installation of dedicated turning lanes for vehicles entering Preolenna Road and Ewingtons Road from the Bass Highway.

The upgrade will also improve the alignment of the Preolenna Road junction with the Bass Highway.

The traffic islands at the intersection of Preolenna Road will also be removed.

This project forms part of a larger project to upgrade multiple junctions along the Bass Highway from Wynyard to Marrawah, ensuring road users reach their destinations more safely and efficiently.

Timing

The project is currently in the detailed design phase, with construction expected to begin in late 2025.
