Brooks Road and Junction Road Upgrades

Tablelands Regional Council (TRC) received funding to provide essential upgrades to existing sections of Brooks and Junction Roads at Mungali.  These roads service local farms and also provide access to a dairy and the Mungali Falls; both of which are popular tourist destinations.

Each section of this project required curve widening (to 7.0m full width), that was unique and needed to be individually assessed and designed to avoid constraints such as property boundaries, steep batters, vegetation, drainage issues and potentially utility services.

Black & More provided civil engineering design documentation for the detailed design phase of the project and RPEQ certified drawings and quantity schedule suitable for tendering and construction.
