Darling Downs Rest Area Upgrades Encouraging Motorists to Stop, Revive and Survive on the Darling Downs
April 202 1 Darling Downs rest area upgrades Encouraging motorists to stop, revive and survive on the Darling Downs Rest areas across the Darling Downs are being upgraded over the next few months to improve facilities and encourage people to stop and rest. The Southern Queensland Regional Director, Kym Murphy, said the Department of Transport and Main Roads is starting work to improve motorist and heavy vehicle rest areas across the Darling Downs. “Rest areas are important to encourage motorists to stop and take a break, which helps reduce driver fatigue and the risk of crashes on our roads," she said. "We will be upgrading facilities such as toilets, shelters, picnic areas, parking and pedestrian pathways, to improve amenity and accessibility for all travellers. "The program is scheduled to upgrade 18 rest areas across the Darling Downs by the end of June 2021. "Starting with the Mary Park rest area on the Cunningham Highway at Tregony, which started works this week," Ms Murphy said. Below is a list of the sites being upgraded across the Darling Downs: • Mary Park rest area at Tregony, Cunningham Highway • Gladfield Driver Reviver rest area, Cunningham Highway • Cunningham rest areas at Thane (2 facilities), Cunningham Highway • The Glen rest area, New England Highway • Lions Park at Stanthorpe, Stanthorpe Connection Road • Federation Park at Ravensbourne, Esk-Hampton Road • Biddeston township facilities, Toowoomba-Cecil Plains Road • Munda Reserve at Woomera (2 facilities), Cunningham Highway • Millmerran rest area, Gore Highway • Wyaga Road intersection rest area at Wyaga, Gore Highway • Wyaga Creek rest area at Kilbronae, Gore Highway • Gatton Bypass truck stop, Warrego Highway • Richard Best Memorial Park at Warra, Warrego Highway • Monte Cristo at Condamine, Leichhardt Highway • Moonie Arts and Craft Centre Information Centre, Leichhardt Highway • Brigalow Creek north of Goondiwindi, Leichhardt Highway The impacts from the rest area upgrades will vary between sites. -
