From 2 September, Council will begin a project to reconstruct an area of Brinktop Road, Richmond – approximately 1.5 kilometres east of the Prossers Road junction (see image below).
The location was identified as part of the Australian Government’s Black Spot Grant Program, which includes funding for Black Spots across the state of Tasmania. The works aim to reduce the likelihood of car accidents and increase road safety by improving visibility and traffic flow on the tight bend on Brinktop Road.
The planned works will start the week beginning 2 September 2024 and it is anticipated the works will take 12 weeks to complete (weather dependent). During the construction period, one lane will be closed during work hours (8am-5pm) and open to two lanes of traffic at the end of each working day.
Temporary traffic management will be in place throughout the work period. Please keep to speed limits and follow the direction of signs and traffic controllers to keep workers and community safe.
