The project aims to improve safety for motorists and cyclists.
Council will be simplifying the intersection by widening and adding a new lane to Tamarind Drive North, making it the dominant through road.
This upgrade will result in clearer right of way, improved line marking, and reduced vehicle speeds through the intersection.
The current intersection was designed to cater for traffic volumes and movements associated with the former Pacific Highway, with Tamarind Drive North and Tamarind Drive South as the through road. Ballina Shire Council is upgrading the intersection of Tamarind Drive and Tintenbar Road to improve safety for motorists and cyclists.
