MUCH-NEEDED road surface repairs have forced shut parts of South Station Rd at Silkstone as Ipswich City Council undertakes months-long works.
The stretch of road between Auld St and Rodney St, estimated to be about 400m long, is set to have sections of kerb and channel replaced, as well as its surface.
While necessary, the works could prove a headache for motorists who frequent the road due to direct access to Blackstone Rd now being temporarily unavailable.
Deputy Mayor Marnie Doyle, however, was quick to assure there were alternate traffic diversions in place via Grange Rd to cater to high-volume traffic.
