SECTIONS of five gravel roads will be sealed after Tablelands Regional Council awarded a $728,000 tender to BNT Civil Contractors to complete the works.
The project includes the construction and sealing of sections of five existing gravel roads
Hemmings Lane, Upper Barron (260m long)
Hough Road, Kairi (100m long extension of existing seal)
Mapee Road, Tolga (464m long from end of existing seal to existing floodway)
Pinnacle Pocket Road, East Barron (670m long)
Shead Road, Kairi (386m long between Yadjin Road and Cotic Road).
Mapee Road will have a sealed width of 6.5m on an 8m wide pavement while the other four roads will each have a sealed width of 4.5m on a 5.5m wide pavement.
Another tender for the widening and sealing of parts of Brooks Road, Mungalli, was also awarded to BNT Civic Contractors, but the project will be scaled down given that the tender came in $290,000 higher than the $590,000 allocated for the job.
