Road Conditions: Carnarvon Highway (Injune-Rolleston) - Dawson River Bridge Upgrade

Information from Department of Transport and Main Roads

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) is upgrading the Dawson River bridge on the Carnarvon Highway (Injune - Rolleston), approximately 61.86km north of Injune.

Work being undertaken includes:

  • Widening the existing Dawson River bridge
  • Reconstruction and realignment of the bridge approaches, including culvert extensions
  • Installation of new bridge rail and guardrail.

Works will be carried out between 6am and 6pm up to ten days a fortnight and are expected to be completed in late June 2024, weather and conditions permitting.

TMR will try to minimise traffic delays as much as possible by using single lane closures, traffic control and speed restrictions. Motorists should slow down, drive carefully and follow the instructions of traffic controllers and construction signage and allow up to an additional 15 minutes, for their journey.

Works may restrict wide-load vehicle access and permit holders should check the TMR Conditions of Operation Database before travelling.
