Bass Highway - East of Meander Valley ramp

We are strengthening bridges and roads around Tasmania to make sure they stay safe and efficient for heavy vehicles and the broader community.

About the project

We have identified a section of the Bass Highway that requires repair and strengthening works.

The site will cover 1km of the Bass Highway, east of Meander Valley ramp.

Once the design is finalised, we will reach out to members of the community who are directly affected.

Timing

Work is due to begin in early 2024.
