Advice from the Transport and Main Roads Heavy Vehicles Unit have prohibited vehicles exceeding 3 metres wide, and 26 metres long from detouring.
Smaller vehicles not surpassing these measurements can access the detours.
Detours can be found Northbound via Taylor Street, Thompson Street, Broadhurst Street and Bruce Highway Southbound via Broadhurst Street, Macrossan Street, Stewart Street and Bruce Highway.
Queensland’s roads and bridges are continuously monitored, reviewed and assessed; however, conditions can change quickly particularly due to weather, and restrictions can be implemented to maintain ongoing safety for all road users.
Use up to date information when assessing the suitability of the road route.
