Works on the first phase of the $42.5m Isis Highway safety upgrade has begun. Member for Bundaberg Tom Smith said stage 1 involved 13km of wide centre lines and audio-tactile linemarking as well as 17km of resealing. He said this was building on works already underway like the Isis Highway, Broadview Drive and Park Estate drive intersection upgrade and jointly-funded $5m overtaking lanes. One life lost on the road is one too many, and unfortunately numerous tragedies have taken place along this stretch. According to TMR s Isis Highway data there were 130 crashes recorded between January 2010 and December 2019. Of these, tragically 10 resulted in fatalities and 57 resulted in admissions to hospital.
