Highway system

As of 13 December 2007, the D'Aguliar Highway bypasses Caboolture to the north.

State-controlled road edit

D'Aguilar Highway is a state-controlled regional road, much of which is also rated as "state-strategic". It is defined in three sections, as follows:

  • Number 40A, Caboolture to Kilcoy, regional.
  • Number 40B, Kilcoy to Yarraman, regional and state-strategic.
  • Number 40C, Yarraman to Kingaroy, regional and state-strategic.[2][3][4]

State Route 85 edit

The section of this highway between Caboolture and Harlin is part of State Route 85, which extends for over 570 km (354 mi) from Bribie Island to Nindigully, duplexing with the Brisbane Valley Highway (State Route A17) from Harlin to Esk, the New England Highway (State Route A3) from Hampton to Toowoomba, the Gore Highway (National Route A39) from Toowoomba to the Leichhardt Highway, and the southern 19 km (12 mi) section of the Leichhardt Highway (National Route A39/State Route A5) to Goondiwindi.

Future developments edit

Proposed Kilcoy bypass edit

In January 2009, the Department of Transport and Main Roads published details of the preferred design for a bypass of the Kilcoy township.[5] The proposed route follows an abandoned rail corridor, and would have minimal impact on existing infrastructure.[6]

In 2021 significant changes were made to the two main intersections in Kilcoy to improve traffic flow.[7] This seems to have been done as an alternative to the proposed bypass.

Upgrades edit

Safety improvements edit

A project to provide safety improvements between Sandy Creek and Kilcoy, at a cost of $19 million, was completed in mid 2023.[8]

Wide centre line treatment edit

A project to provide wide centre lines near Wamuran, at a cost of $12 million, was completed in September 2022.[9]

Major Intersections edit

Intersections are listed from west to east.

Length8.2 km (5.1 mi)

The Caboolture Connection Road (CCR) is a 8.2 km (5.1 mi) former section of the D'Aguilar Highway that runs south-east from the highway at Moodlu to the Bruce Highway in Caboolture, Queensland, Australia.[10] It is a state-controlled regional road (number 9905) rated as a local road of regional significance (LRRS).[2][3]

CCR Route description edit

The road commences at an intersection with the D'Aguilar Highway (State Route 85) in the locality of Moodlu. It starts as Williams Road and crosses the highway on an overbridge. It then runs south-east as King Street, passing the exit to Bellmere Road to the south-west, and continuing through Caboolture to an intersection with Burpengary–Caboolture Road and Beerburrum Road. It continues east as Lower King Street, crossing the railway line and reaching a bridge over the Bruce Highway, where it ends.[10]

The physical road continues east as Caboolture–Bribie Island Road (State Route 85).

CCR History edit

With the opening of a new section of road in 2007[11] to enable the D'Aguilar Highway to bypass the Caboolture CBD,[12] the bypassed section was renamed Caboolture Connection Road.[3]

CCR Upgrade project edit

A project to upgrade signals and improve intersections on this road, at a cost of $7.5 million, was in construction in July 2022, with most sub-projects already completed.[13]
