Planning gets underway on future upgrades to Mount Mee Road
The Queensland Government is progressing planning for future upgrades on Brisbane-Woodford Road between Dayboro and D’Aguilar. Locally known as Mount Mee Road, this corridor is a vital transport link for the Moreton Bay hinterland.
This planning stage will assess road conditions as well as the surrounding road environment along the 40-kilometre stretch of road, considering current and future traffic volumes, speed limits and known constraints across this challenging corridor.
“Just like we said we would at the time of the election, the Crisafulli Government is delivering a fresh start for Queensland by planning ahead and investing in safer, more reliable regional roads.
“Brisbane-Woodford Road is a critical connection for the Moreton Bay hinterland, linking communities, supporting local jobs and helping people get where they need to go.
“This study demonstrates our commitment to delivering a safer road network for all communities across the state, looking at traffic volumes, road conditions and safety risks so future investment can be targeted where it will make the biggest difference,” Minister for Transport and Main Roads Brent Mickelberg said.

Outcomes of the planning study will support future investment decisions for upgrades on Mount Mee Road to improve safety and reliability, which includes narrow sections, changing speed zones, crests and tight bends.
Planning is anticipated to be completed in late 2026.
“Mount Mee Road is a vital connection that locals rely on every day.
“This planning work will help identify priority locations for future upgrades, particularly through sections with tight bends, crests and changing speed environments.
“Unlike the former Labor Government, the Crisafulli Government is focused on getting the fundamentals right and delivering better outcomes for our community now and into the future,” Member for Glasshouse Andrew Powell said.
