Gowrie Junction works
As part of work on the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing, the western end of Ganzer Road and the southern end of Ganzer Morris Road at Gowrie Junction will be permanently realigned.
This involves constructing:
- a new 1.4km section of Ganzer Road
- a new 900m section of Ganzer Morris Road
- a signalised intersection on Gowrie Junction Road and the new Ganzer Road
- a four-lane bridge, taking the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing over Gowrie Junction Road.
Building Ganzer Road and Gowrie Junction Road
To accommodate the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing and improve conditions for road users, an approximately 1.4km long section of Ganzer Road will be permanently realigned. The new section of Ganzer Road will connect to Gowrie Junction Road at a signalised intersection.
Once constructed, traffic will be switched onto the new road to allow works on the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing alignment to commence. This is to maintain traffic access through the area during construction.
A 900m section of Ganzer Morris Road will be constructed to the north of the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing alignment. The existing Ganzer Morris Road will not be upgraded as part of project works.
A four-lane bridge will be constructed taking the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing over Gowrie Junction Road. There will be no direct connection from the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing to Gowrie Junction Road.
Construction updates
Construction of the new Ganzer Road and bridge over Gowrie Junction Road commenced in late 2016 and is expected to take approximately six months to complete.
Construction of the new section of Ganzer Morris Road commenced in early 2017. Local residents and businesses will be kept updated about construction time frames.

Jeff Rayner batters look good from up here
Its still hard to believe it's happening. Biggest change I've seen in my life.
It's actually happening! I saw bits of it last July when visiting Toowoomba, mainly around the airport end of town (really can't remember). So very overdue, but happy that the City of Toowoomba will be able to get some relief from through heavy traffic.

I keep seeing roadworks/earthworks but really don't yet have a clear idea of how this works. But it will be great!
