Weekend closures: Tinonee Road Wingham

MidCoast Council

A section of Tinonee Road will be closed to traffic on two weekends in March for improvement works.

An upgrade to a 735-metre section of Tinonee Road immediately east of the Bight Bridge began in early February and is progressing well.

MidCoast Council will completely close the road to traffic providing the weather is fine, between 7am and 4pm on:

Saturday 19 March and Sunday 20 March

Saturday 26 March and Sunday 27 March.

Road users will need to take a different route using Wingham Road via Taree or Gloucester Road and The Bucketts Way.

Road signs about the closure are in place. Council will advise property owners adjoining the roadworks prior to the closure dates.

Improvements include making the road wider, improving road drainage and replacing road signage. Flood level markers will be installed and the flood gauge is being relocated and rehoused.

These works will improve road safety and provide better property access for residents.

Funding for the work comes from MidCoast Council’s road improvement program.
