5.13 PACIFIC HIGHWAY UPGRADE
The Pacific Highway upgrade project is currently under construction to the
west of Ewingsdale, travelling south through to west of Ballina. This
potentially has significant impacts to the transmission line project works due
to the alteration of existing road networks and traffic conditions and large
construction areas that may impact access to the transmission line to be
upgraded. Near Ballina, the transmission line is to be upgraded in several
locations in the immediate vicinity of the Pacific Highway project area. Coordination
with the RTA and relevant contractors will be essential when in
these locations to ensure the progression of the project is not hampered.
5.14 ALSTONVILLE BYPASS
The Alstonville Bypass is 6.2km of roadway between Alstonville and
Wollongbar. The bypass will commence at Sneaths Road Wollongbar and will
rejoin the Bruxner Highway at the Tropical Fruit Research Station at Perrys
Hill, east of Alstonville. Construction activities commenced in mid 2009 and
are continuing at present. The construction activities have the potential to
interact with the electricity upgrade project in the areas between Wardell
Road and Teven Road (See Figure 5.7). On-going consultation with the RTA
and relevant contractors prior to and throughout the project construction
works is recommended.
