FNQ: Tully - Mission Beach Road, Carmoo

Source: Department of Transport and Main Roads

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) will be undertaking safety improvements on Tully – Mission Beach Road, Carmoo.

The works will include stabilisation of the existing road to improve pavement strength. Minor widening of the road will also be carried out to allow updated line marking and improved delineation. These works will improve the overall functionality and safety of this section on Tully – Mission Beach Road.

Crews will be onsite between 6 am and 6 pm from Tuesday 23 September 2025. Works are expected to be completed in three months, weather and construction conditions permitting.

For the safety of road users and maintenance crews, changed traffic conditions will be in place including temporary speed limit reductions, and single lane operation under coordination of traffic controllers and/or traffic signals while the works are carried out. 

Intermittent full closures of the road will be required at times to carry out the works.  Road users can expect delays of up to 15-minute periods during the full closures and users should plan their journeys accordingly.

Nearby residents may experience noise associated with the works, such as the sound of trucks, light machinery and vibrations. The contractor will take all reasonable and practicable actions to minimise impacts.

Variable Message Signs (VMS) will be in place on the approaches to the work site to ensure motorists are aware of the changed traffic conditions. Changes in dates due to poor weather will be posted on the VMS.
