Caboolture-Bribie Island Road and Old Toorbul Point Road intersection upgrade

Construction is now complete for an intersection upgrade that installed traffic signals and dedicated turn lanes for all turning movements at the Caboolture-Bribie Island Road and Old Toorbul Point Road intersection.

This upgrade is catering to growing traffic volumes by increasing capacity at the intersection and making it safer for motorists to navigate through. The traffic signal installation has also significantly reduced delays for motorists using the intersection, while accommodating future capacity requirements for Caboolture-Bribie Island Road.

As well as improving traffic flow through the intersection, the project delivered a signalised pedestrian crossing, new U-turn facility, bus stopping bays and on-road bike lanes on Caboolture-Bribie Island Road.
