Gulf Developmental Road - State Controlled Road

The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) is continuing works at Little River Bridge and Routh Creek Bridge located on the Gulf Developmental Road (GDR) between Mt Surprise and Croydon. These works are part of regular bridge maintenance program.

For the safety of workers and road users, changed traffic conditions will be in place under the direction of traffic controllers or traffic signals at both these bridges and may include the following:

Routh Creek Bridge

• Works are progressing and will be completed in late 2020, weather permitting. Work crews will operate between 7 am and 5 pm Monday to Saturday. 
• The bridge is reduced to single lane with a speed reduced to 40km/h 24-hours – No temporary closures until further notice.

Variable Message Boards (VMS) will be in place on the approaches to the bridges, a week prior to the concrete works starting. Motorists should plan their journey according.
