New England Highway realignment

bit of extra compaction, eh

Rare pic of all machinery the right way up! Haha

Great photo.

Needs a merging lane, it was very short sighted of you, to expect traffic to just jump on at 100km

Have to be up there with the most ridiculous idea to make u turn bay with no merging lane at all. would have been easier to just have a exit where the highway pretty much runs parallel to postmans ridge road and have the off ramp onto Murphy’s creek road

Have Nexus driven on the loop road that brings you back onto the Eastbound lanes of the Warrego Hwy to access Postmans Ridge Road?? With all the land available and no merge lane built... this is an accident waiting to happen!!

Why would anyone make you go back onto a busy highway to get to murphys creek

My partner drives down there every day, I do at least twice a week, go get this white elephant done and completed, we are getting fed up with the lane closures, differing speeds etc, it's annoying, frustrating and confusing and someone please explain to me why you all had to mess up the entry on to Postman's Ridge Rd so badly, what a freaking cock up. Maybe it will be ready in another 3 years or more, what a joke

A Uturn similar to the one being built for the Spa close to Postmans Ridge Rd would have made sense.

Bully-hay Hay

Nexus have finished down in Helidon spa it’s now worked by the state government

The biggest waste of time and money that u-turn. Should’ve been left the way it was.

Happy Easter guys

R U talking about the Warrego lanes ????????

When is it going to be fully open only 45 years since it was proposed

Nexus Both these u-turn bay are very dangerously designed with no thought involved. The west to east has no slipp lane making it very dangerous for any vehicle to join the highway heading east, particularly in a loaded truck. As for the one currently under construction, what idiot decided to waste money putting this here with limited visibility of traffic coming over the rise at 100km/hr when there is already a u-turn facility in Helidon 1.5km further away and a lot safer. Everyone agrees with what I have said. Are you people really this dumb and stupid. Both these facilities are dangerous and unsafe. It is only a matter of time before a serious accident/fatality happens particularly with the eastern one.????

Any date for the complete opening of the road.

I am a bit of a thrillseeker but am not stupid enough to attempt a u-turn in front of 100kph (plus) traffic approaching over the brow of a hill. We now have three crossroads within 150 metres at this hill crest. A brain scan on the moron that designed this mess would reveal nothing.

Queensland government sure knows how to make money disappear

This is the biggest fkup!!!! And adds SO much more to going to Murphys Creek from the East, unless you know the back way!! Not going to tell you that NEXUS!!!! Or u will stuff that up as well..and how about making a traffic island on Murphys Creek road, for the left turn to head east??and , or continue straight ahead on Murphys Creek road if you are heading to Postmans Ridge???? Going to be a doozy accident there one day.

There should of been an on ramp eastbound onto the SRC for people wishing to access the SRC from the Withcott area, instead the access will be via this u-turn facility as well.

Like watching paint dry

One over pass for all connecting roads would of made more sense. Helendale Road intersection is a major accident waiting to happen!! Huge worry!😟

Lana Buckland ahhhhhh

One day it will be all open ONE day

And of course some brain drain moron decided to place U turning vehicles just over the brow of a hill. Recipe for disaster right there.
