Permanent Traffic Changes To River Street

If you are a frequent user of the River Street boat ramp, enjoy purchasing your fresh riverside seafood or like to take a stroll along the Bluewater Trail near the river mouth, you will need to be aware of a new traffic update along your journey.

River Street, between Carlyle and Lawson streets, has permanently changed to a one-way traffic flow in a westerly direction.

The change took place last Sunday (August 21) as part of the new Riverside Development.

Traffic control will be in place between Carlyle and Burns streets from this time and will remain while upgrade works to River Street are completed.

As part of these works, all on-street parking will be converted to angle parking along the levee wall.

Mackay Regional Council asks motorists to follow all site signage in the area.
