Delays ease on Hilton Tce

Asphalt poured on Hilton Terrace

Traffic delays on Hilton Terrace should soon be over with asphalt works on track for completion this week.

Project Coordinator Cody Johnston said Council appreciated motorists’ patience while work was under way.

Complicated sections of asphalt work were done at night on Wednesday and Thursday last week, but some work had to be done during the day.

“Night works are significantly more costly for ratepayers, and the noise heavily impacts surrounding residents when the work continues all through the night,” he said.

“Hilton Terrace residents have been incredibly patient during the past few months while work has been happening right outside their homes.”

“This week and next week, contractors will be finalising new traffic islands and linemarking, planting street trees and laying turf.

“Our contractors worked as fast as they could to lay asphalt the full length of Hilton Terrace between the roundabout and the bowls club on Tuesday.

“The contractors put in a massive effort Tuesday and Wednesday to complete the asphalt between the roundabout and the bridge.”

The $3M Hilton Terrace upgrade project includes new on-road cycle lanes, construction of a roundabout at the Ernest Street intersection, and completion of the shared path from Noosa Lakes Resort to Tait Duke Community Cottage.
