Barry Road users in Hanging Rock will have noticed machinery in action as works commence to remediate the damaged road. The road suffered a major road failure caused by a land slip during the heavy rains that soaked the region in late 2021.
Due to the highly complex nature of the work, geotechnical professionals and specialist designers have been engaged for the road repair, with efforts made to reduce the risk of a similar event happening again.
Early works for the repair have begun to prepare the site, with extensive repair works to begin in 2024. Motorists should expect major/minor delays while construction is taking place, and are reminded to obey road work signage.
