Queensland crossing under construction

Construction work for the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing (TSRC) viaduct in Queensland is now underway. The 800m viaduct is a key component of the US$1.21 billion (A$1.6 billion) project to provide a new bypass around Toowoomba. This will mean traffic passing through will no longer have to pass through the central business district and instead will be routed along the highway bypass, boosting transport and safety.
