Project Overview

We've all used the roads that connect Port Macquarie to Laurieton to Kendall at one point or another. As a motorist, cyclist or walker, public transport user. In August 2020 we ran a series of workshops and invited the community to tell us what you think the issues are with the road corridor now, or what opportunities there are to improve the way the road works into the future.

Port Macquarie-Hasting Council is currently developing a long-term road corridor strategy for Hastings River Drive, Ocean Drive and Kendall Road (MR538 and MR600). This 54km road corridor links Port Macquarie to neighbouring local towns and villages along the coast, and then inland to Kew and Kendall.

This strategy will focus on:

  • preserving the corridor
  • setting out a broad design framework for future transport network upgrades for all users, including traffic, walking, cycling, and public transport
  • defining priorities for future road maintenance, operation, and the safety of all road users.
