Kenilworth Road Cambroon to get only minor “First Aid”
Anyone who as travelled on the section of roadway between Conondale and the Mary River, judging by the state of the roadway would have to believe that we live in some fourth world country. After receiving your many emails and phone calls, again, about the terrible conditions on the MalenyKenilworth Road between Lees Road and Booloumba Creek Road, the Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) just advised me that they are going to do shoulder-grading of the single-lane sections to make the road safer for drivers. The Department of Transport and Main Roads, who is responsible for the maintenance of this section of roadway advises that the design work for the full sealing and widening is still scheduled to take place in 2023. This promise has been made on a number of occasions, however has not to date come to fruition.
roads in such a poor condition thus creating dangerous situations. The grading in this instance is just another rst aid solution, especially considering the heavy ow of traf c that uses this roadway. The roadway shouldn’t have been left to get as bad as it has. To continue with shoulder-gradings does nothing for the safety of this section of roadway and a complete sealing is years overdue and is also a continuing cost to have to continually grade shoulders.

The minor works in this instance are due to commence on the 22nd November 2021 and will continue between 6am and 6pm Monday to Friday for approximately two weeks, weather permitting. This section of roadway is a major thoroughfare through the Sunshine Coast hinterland and also carries a heavy amount of tourist traf c and many of those drivers are not experienced in driving on
