A new $873,000 project will improve the road surface of Mt Crosby Road at Anstead, Transport and Main Roads Minister Paul Lucas said today.

Mr Lucas said the work would improve road safety between Kholo Creek and Moggill Road.

"Mt Crosby Road's surface in this section is in poor condition, with a lot of rough areas from repairs over several years,'' Mr Lucas said.

"This work will resurface 3.5km of the road and complete the upgrade program for Mt Crosby Road from Quahalee Grove right through to Moggill Road.

"This is the final section in a series of strengthening and resurfacing projects on Mt Crosby Road aimed at providing motorists with reliable and consistent travelling conditions.''

Work will start this month by contractors Pioneer Road Services, and is expected to finish by June 2004 pending favourable weather conditions,.
