Project update July 2024

Major works are complete!

The City of Onkaparinga is pleased to announce that the major works for the road reconstruction and safety improvements on Old Coach Road, Maslin Beach have successfully been completed.

Some minor works to services infrastructure are scheduled to be delivered in the coming weeks, dependant on weather and contractor availability. Traffic management controls will be in place while these works are undertaken, however the road will remain open to traffic.

We appreciate your patience and understanding.


Background

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.

You can view the concept plan for more detail.

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.
