The NexusTSRC website image gallery has been updated to December 2018 so you can see our construction progress over the last two and a half years.

We have also created a new album to keep you up to date on Embankment 24 (Ballard area) and we will update these monthly, until the entire road is complete this year.

Seeing the Viaduct from a train is amazing - you truly appreciate the engineering and size of it this way.

Pretty amazing. Will be fantastic. Can’t wait.

Nexus TSRC any photos of the area that’s responsible for the hold up in opening?

Sally Dowson I think Daddy would like these xx

Time to build passenger rail the same way

And the new crossing is far too steep for conventional rail.

Would like to see LED lighting like some bridges here in Brisbane.

Will this viaduct have wind protection?

Happy New Year!

2019 is gearing up to be an exciting year for Nexus and the Toowoomba community with the entire TSRC on track for completion midway through this year.

The following footage was taken at the opening of the TSRC – Cranley to Athol section in December 2018. We look forward to sharing progress updates on the TSRC eastern section with you over the next few months. ... See MoreSee Less

Do you have a community opening planned for the eastern section. Thinking a lot would love an opportunity to walk the viaduct.

Gee mege billions spent to increase the number of traffic lights in the region.... FAIL...

Robert Smith this is the bit we drove down

From all the team at Nexus, we wish you a merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year.

We’re grateful to all of our stakeholders, especially local residents, for your patience since preparation for the TSRC began in late 2015 and especially since construction began in April 2016.

Your enduring support for this great new road project is reflected in the results of our regular surveys conducted for us by an independent auditor. You have made the team’s job easier in so many ways and we wish you well in your travels on all 43km of the TSRC when the whole road opens in mid-2019.

A reminder that Broadspectrum has commenced operation and maintenance services for the opened section of the TSRC (Cranley to Athol section). Motorists who wish to report issues on this section of road can contact QLDTraffic via the 13 19 40 phone service.

If you require information on the eastern section of the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing during the Christmas period, please call the Community Relations team on 1800 198 878 or email info@nexusTSRC.com.au ... See MoreSee Less

Great job One question will there be an opportunity for groups to walk, drive in special interest vehicles etc before the opening? It’s such a monumental event for our area

Such and iconic photo! people will be coming from all over the country just to drive on this road, particularly this from west to east under the NE Highway bridge and on to the beautiful Viaduct....what a view!

It been great working with you guys for the last 32 months have a wonderful xmas and happy new year. See you next year 2019

WOW, looks very impressive, driving over the top - Toowoomba to Highfields, I often wondered what it looked like down below!!!

Geoffrey Smart ( esk)!

I luv your work. Think u should be building all roads in oz.

Well done to Nexus, I think it is fantastic that you have achieved such great milestones to date with all the challenges you have faced. Enjoy Christmas 🎄 and have a safe New Year. 🙂

Great work Nexus

You guys have done a marvellous job!

You people have done a wonderful job😊

I come from Wales and I have been watching the build of the Nexus TSRC from the start and all I have to say is a very good job has been done by all, I just can't wait to return to the Toowoomba Region one day and go one this fine road, I would just like to say Merry Christmas and a happy New Year to everyone at Nexus TSRC 🇭🇲️🙂🇭🇲️🙂🇭🇲️🙂🇭🇲️🙂🇭🇲️🙂🇭🇲️

Such a shame that the people in the Lockyer Valley are still plagued with road works and constant inconvenience just for Toowoomba to have a bypass. No flood mitigation in place in the Valley and we were the ones that flooded in 2011 and 2013 - shame on Nexus.

Merry Christmas to all of the Nexus team thanx 4 your great work n updates have a happy and wonderful Christmas n a happy new year. See you all in 2019

Why on earth didn't you just put an off ramp from the bypass road onto Postmans Ridge road? That big circle back onto the highway east bound with no slip lane is dangerous!

Is it a toll road?

Great work - and Christmas greetings to the Nexus team!

Josh Klein

Well done to all, I’m impressed. 👍
