The Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) proposes to upgrade and realign 26 km of the Bruce Highway (requiring construction of 30 km of new highway and tie-in works), including a bypass to the east of Gympie, Queensland. This project, titled the Bruce Highway Cooroy to Curra (Section D: Woondum to Curra) project, is the fourth and final section of a 62 km upgrade of the Bruce Highway between Cooroy and Curra. This highway upgrade is one of Queensland’s high priority road projects, providing an effective transport link as part of the national highway network and improved safety and flood immunity (Queensland Government, 2012). The Section D: Woondum to Curra project (herein referred to as ‘the project’) provides for a new four lane divided highway from Woondum to Curra, including a bypass of Gympie, Queensland. The new section of highway will have a posted speed limit of 110 km/hr and directional separation from Woondum to Curra. The project has been separated into two Contracts. A Southern Contract (Contract 1) will extend for 12 km's from the northern tie in to the Bruce Highway Cooroy to Curra (Section C: Traveston to Woondum) project at Woondum, to approximately 200 m north of Sandy Creek Road.
