Lot 12 Bayshore Drive – Roundabout Construction

• Project value$2.4 million
• Project schedulePreliminary works underway ahead of roundabout construction which will start mid-to-late January
• Completion Date05 September 2025

Preliminary works are underway ahead of construction of a new roundabout on Bayshore Drive, Byron Bay (at the intersection of the access road to the new TAFE and the IGA Shopping complex at Sunrise, in the Byron Arts and Industry Estate.)

This includes building a slip lane on Lot 12 Bayshore Drive to ensure two lanes of traffic remain open for the majority of the roundabout construction, as well as installation of water, sewer and NBN services.

The preliminary works will be completed by mid-to-late January. 

During this time, there will be no traffic impacts on Bayshore Drive, except for the installation of water/sewer infrastructure which will take place over two nights.

Construction of the roundabout will start after completion of the slip lane.

This project is part of the development of a 5.8 hectare Council-owned block of land known as Lot 12 Bayshore Drive.

Work includes

• Roundabout
• Foot paths and replacement of existing footpaths
• Garden beds
• Replacing broken kerbs and gutters
• Lighting
• Water and sewer infrastructure for new development.

What to expect

• Work times – Monday to Friday between 7am and 5pm.
• Noise – Machinery noise including drilling and vacuum excavation.
• Restricted access/temporary closures – Traffic control, electronic message boards and signage will be in place throughout the project to keep the community informed and manage access (including deliveries). Note: during the final stage of the project, expected in August/September 2025, traffic access may need to be reduced to one lane.
