4th August, 2025<\/p>\n

The Fiji Roads Authority (FRA) wishes to advise the public to expect road alignment changes in two weeks<\/strong> with the commencement of works for the new Tamavua-I-Wai Bridge construction.<\/p>\n

Please be advised of the following major changes to be expected:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Change in alignment to cater for the ground improvement works on the approach roads to the bridge<\/li>\n
  2. Major construction works for the bridge which would see the entry and exit of heavy gear in and around the Tamavua \u2013 I – Wai River<\/li>\n
  3. Change in layout of traffic management between Reservoir Road and Nadonumai Road<\/li>\n
  4. Decrease in overall speed for this section of Queens Road due to safety implementation for the public and the Contractors<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The FRA is issuing this advisory to give the public ample time to prepare before this exercise is carried out.<\/p>\n

    A further advisory will be issued once the actual road alignment changes take place, allowing members of the public to plan their travel accordingly.<\/p>\n

    In the interim, ground works have commenced, and the general public is urged to exercise caution and follow all safety measures and signages in place.<\/p>\n

    We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we carry out this essential project. For further updates, please stay tuned to official communication channels.<\/p>\n

    For questions or further details, please contact FRA at our toll-free number 5720<\/strong> (available on weekdays from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM) or email info@fijiroads.org<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
