The section of Glenella-Richmond Road between Mackay-Habana Road and Holts Road is now open to traffic, after labour and material shortages created a lengthy delay in the completion of the project.
The project was due for completion in December 2021, but after the project duration was extended to February, the contractors delivered within the extended timeframe.
The country road is a pivotal piece of infrastructure for Northern Beaches and Habana residents, as it bypasses part of the often-congested main thoroughfare to the Northern Beaches suburbs.
Within 24 hours of announcing the re-opening of the road on Facebook, Mackay Regional Council’s post had attracted more than 450 comments, showing how closely this project has been followed by residents.
A Council spokesperson said “There are still some minor works left to complete, so please drive to the conditions and obey all signage in the area.
“A big thank you to the community for their patience and understanding during this project.”
