An excellent opportunity to take advantage of the Jambaroo Mountain Road being open to LIGHT TRAFFIC ONLY?
Important information on Jamberoo Mountain Road
With Transport for NSW undertaking safety upgrades to Macquarie Pass, Kiama Municipal Council would like to remind motorists that Jamberoo Mountain Road is only to be used by light vehicles.
The Illawarra Highway will be closed between the base and top of Macquarie Pass from Sunday 2 August for the next four months between the hours of 8pm and 4am, Sunday to Thursday nights.
Heavy vehicles over 12 tonnes and 10 metres in length are not permitted to use Jamberoo Mountain Road at any time as the road is unsafe for these larger vehicles. They are advised to use a detour via the Hume Highway, Picton Road and the M1 Princes Motorway.
Kiama Council is currently completing roadworks at Jamberoo Mountain Road, which will be closed between Misty Lane and Knights Hill between 9am and 4pm, Monday to Friday for the next five weeks.
