You are invited to have a look through the below list of large projects to see what we're currently working on:

Council thanks our community for your cooperation and for driving carefully through road works sites.

Council Crews and external contractors are continuing on approved Jan 24 works and have commenced works on March 2025 Recovery Program on the affected unsealed and sealed roads. The areas that will be affected are Emu Vale, Killarney, Leyburn, Connelly Dam, Maryvale, North Branch, Girraween, Hendon (Middle St) & Warwick (Parker St). 

Council will commence approved unsealed road flood damage works on Condamine River Road (PDF 1.7MB) from Wednesday, 22 October 2025, with completion expected by 20 December 2025, weather permitting. 

We aim to update this data on a monthly basis.  Last updated on 15 October 2025.

The condition of our gravel roads can change quickly, particularly after heavy rainfall.  As you would understand, we need to wait for the unsealed road to be dry enough for our heavy machinery to work on.

This work is also weather dependent so the program may be adjusted to accommodate the ever-changing weather conditions.
