About the project

Central Coast Council is upgrading Ironcliffe Road as part of the Australian Government's Remote Roads Upgrade Pilot Program. This vital section of road connects schools, sports venues, and tourist spots.

The project will upgrade 8.6kms of Ironcliffe Road in three sections of work:

• Section 3 (Mount Gnomon Car Park to Mt Gnomon Farm) - NOW COMPLETE
• Section 2 (Mount Gnomon Farm to Hardys Road) - IN PROGRESS
• Section 1 (Hardys Road to Sports Complex Avenue) - COMING UP

Construction is progressing northwards towards Penguin to minimise construction traffic travelling over completed work.

A 60km/h speed limit has been established between Hardys Road and the Mount Gnomon Farm with further reductions to 40km/hr at specific work sites.

The project is scheduled for completion by March 2026.
