We are upgrading the section of Old Coach Road between and including Oleander Road and Tuit Road, Maslin Beach.


Old Coach Road open while works continue

We are pleased to advise the first layer of the road pavement reconstruction work on Old Coach Road, Maslin Beach has successfully been completed. The road is again open to northbound and southbound traffic, however traffic restrictions will still be in place for on-going shoulder treatment works, which are expected to be completed by late-June 2024.

Further road closures will be required in this section of road for the final road pavement layer and advanced notification will be provided prior to the closures.

We apologise for any inconvenience this has caused and appreciate your patience while these critical construction works continue.

Construction timing

The Old Coach Road repairs were planned over 3 years ago due to its poor condition, predating the state government’s

announcement about the Main South Road works.

Serving as a detour during these works intensified the urgency for council’s Old Coach Road repairs once Main South Road reopened.

We're in frequent communication with Fleurieu Connections Alliance (FCA) and the Department for Infrastructure and Transport (DIT) to minimise disruptions and keep the community informed.

Construction is scheduled to be completed late June 2024.

Scope of works

The scope of works include:

  • reconstruction of the road between Oleander Road and Tuit Road
  • installation of stormwater infrastructure
  • minor road widening in nominated locations
  • vehicle safety improvements including line marking, indented bus bays and guardrails.
