The new connection into the Caloundra CBD will reduce traffic congestion at the Caloundra Road/Nicklin Way/Pelican Waters Boulevard roundabout and have flow-on benefits for local roads in Currimundi, Dicky Beach and Moffat Beach.

This project is also consistent with the community’s vision to get people out of cars and into more sustainable modes of transport, including walking and cycling by providing a new separated two-way cycle track and pedestrian pathways.

The new intersection and road corridor is designed to meet forecast traffic demand at opening and over the next 10 years, with infrastructure benefits to cater for our growing population, business and tourism.

Ultimate plan
The project footprint includes:
  • a new intersection with Nicklin Way by extending Third Avenue
  • active transport underpass for more convenient pedestrian and cyclist movements
  • improved safety and accessibility for pedestrian with:
    • new signalised crossings
    • new pedestrian pathways
    • new dedicated two-way cycle track alongside a low-speed traffic environment
  • new street lighting and landscaping
  • an alternative entry into the Caloundra CBD and reducing congestion at the Caloundra Road/Nicklin Way roundabout.
Project sections

The new transport upgrade is made up of two sections - Section 1 and Section 2.

Section 1 (Omrah Avenue to Arthur Street) will be delivered and funded by Council to meet local growth and community needs. 

Section 2 between Arthur Street and Nicklin Way (referred to as the Nicklin Way, Third Avenue extension) remains partially funded with contributions by Council and the Queensland Government. Additional funding contributions are currently being sought. This section is being delivered by the Department of Transport and Main Roads in partnership with Council. 

Council and the State Government remain committed to delivering the total corridor.

The CTCU is a multi-staged project to be delivered over a number of years. 

Where to from here

Section 1 early works, including demolition works, Energex works and other service location works have been progressing throughout 2024 and will continue throughout the first half of 2025.

Detailed (final) design for the complete CTCU corridor remains in progress. We hope to share this with our community by the end of this year (2024).

The CTCU Project Team will continue to keep our community informed about the project via regular updates.
