Road Work Programs

Narrabri Shire Council 's road work programs are a guide only, as Council continually assesses roads and prioritises activities.

The timing of works is subject to emerging priorities and weather events.

Lake Circuit Road Construction

Narrabri Shire Council wishes to notify businesses and residents that construction and traffic control works on Lake Circuit Road, Yarrie Lake, will commence in late October 2024. Work will be carried out between 7.00am and 5.00pm from Monday to Saturday and is expected to be completed in six months, weather permitting.

Changed traffic conditions including intermittent stop/slow, detours to Yarrie Lake and reduced speed limits will be in place during and/or after work hours. Motorists should allow extra travel time.

Motorists are further advised to drive to the conditions and follow the direction of traffic controllers and signage. Council thanks motorists for their patience during this time.

If you have any queries regarding this matter, please contact Council on (02) 67996866 or email council@narrabri.nsw.gov.au.

Road users are reminded that:

  • They may be liable for any damage that they cause to a road that is closed to their vehicle type.
  • Travelling on roads covered with water is extremely dangerous and should be avoided.
  • Road conditions can change without warning and drivers should travel with caution.
  • Unsealed roads damage very easily when they are wet and only essential journeys should be undertaken until these roads dry out.
  • Repairs to damaged roads are not usually possible until the roads and gravel stockpiles begin to dry out.
  • Council prioritises repairs, with high traffic roads usually receiving attention first.
