Investigator Ave On The Road To Completion

Stage one of Gympie Regional Council’s largest ever in house construction project is well underway and on schedule with approximately one kilometre of drainage, landscaping and road seal in progress.

Stage One, works are on schedule for completion by the end of this month (May).

Council construction crews have worked through a number of challenges including the recent spate of wet weather and restrictions around social distancing related to COVID-19.

The $3.6 million, Investigator Avenue road widening project, begun in January 2020 and includes the widening of the road to 10 metres, construction of concrete kerbing, a 1.5-metre-wide concrete footpath, stormwater pits and underground pipes, rebuilding the affected driveways, planting new street trees and turf and installing LED streetlights to light the new footpath between Nautilus Drive and Queen Elizabeth Drive, Cooloola Cove.

The project is fifty percent funded by the Queensland Government through the Transport Infrastructure Development Scheme (TIDS) program.
