Overview
The $20.34m project aims to improve safety on a 5km stretch of the Bruce Highway between Childers and Apple Tree Creek.
The focus is to enhance the highway intersections located at Old Creek Road (south), Chews Road, and Gentle Annie Road. Additionally, there will be an upgrade to the intersection at Apple Tree Creek’s Pleash Street and Bruce Highway, where north-bound traffic will have limited access to turning right. Wide centre lines will also be incorporated on the highway to provide added distance between vehicle lanes. Some alteration to speed limits will also be implemented.
