The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) advises there are road works occurring on the Baffle Creek Bridge located between Injune and Rolleston on the Carnarvon Highway.

Further restrictions are now in place to provide TMR's contractor RoadTek an increased safe working environment to continue maintenance on Baffle Creek Bridge.  

Effective immediately, all vehicle combinations with a ground contact width and/or loaded width greater than 3.0m are not permitted to travel through the site. 

Eligible vehicles can access the alternate route via Leichhardt Highway, provided a copy of the approved variation letter is used in conjunction with your current permit.

If you do not have a current permit you are required to apply via the NHVR GO for the alternative route. 

Vehicles exceeding the mass envelopes contained within the variation letter must apply for a permit through the NHVR Portal for further assessment. 

Check your route before you start your journey.

TMR are continuously monitoring, assessing and reviewing our roads, bridges and culverts across Queensland. Conditions can change quickly, particularly due to weather. Restrictions are implemented to maintain ongoing safety for all road users.

It is your responsibility to make sure you're using up-to-date information when you assess the suitability of your route.

You must check the Conditions of Operation Database before you start your journey.
