• The duplication of Aura Boulevard and Graf Drive into four lanes
• Intersection upgrades
• The extension of Graf Drive to connect with Racecourse Road providing a third access point from the community to Caloundra Road.

Aura Boulevard and Graf Drive will remain open to traffic throughout these works.

Stockland has appointed Sunshine Coast-based civil works contractor, Shadforth, to deliver the project.

In an official statement about the project, Stockland stated the work would be delivered through stages.

“Most of the works are scheduled to be completed by late 2025, subject to weather and progress,” the statement read.

“Works will generally be delivered during the daytime from Monday to Saturday.

“We understand the works around the business park will take place within a busy traffic network, and we appreciate your patience and understanding.”

Local resident Michael Jeffery said he had always been “shocked” by the lack of a left hand turning lane to exit the business park.

“In that exit phase it’s diabolical,” Mr Jeffery said.

“The majority of people are turning left, but you have to sit there and wait for one person turning right.”

But he said traffic forecasting was a lot more difficult than people thought.

“It’s always tricky when you have rapidly increasing traffic flow to forecast how roads will perform,” he said.

“Although roads are seen as an overhead by developers so at least we are now getting it sorted out.”

Stockland will keep local residents and interested parties informed as the roadworks progress.
