Road closures

Check here for information about temporary road closures or activities that may impact on traffic conditions on the Central Coast.

Below is a list of planned and unplanned road closures that may impact travel times and/or routes on Central Coast roads under Council’s responsibility. This may include closures due to significant weather events, major road construction works or major events. This is not an exhaustive list, road closures with minimal potential impact are not included. 

Please note: 

  • This information is updated during business hours from 8am-5pm, Monday to Friday. Major road impacts and closures outside of business hours are listed on Council's Facebook page. Road conditions and closure status can change rapidly during severe weather events with little notice, so updates are provided as practical.  Some major road impacts and closures are also listed on Council's Facebook page (during and outside of business hours).  
  • For information on State managed roads (i.e. main roads such as Central Coast Highway and the M1), download the LiveTraffic app or go online to www.livetraffic.com. Council also updates Live Traffic NSW local road information during business hours. 
  • Consider if these road closures impact your emergency plans and if you need to make changes to your emergency evacuation routes. For further information on how to prepare for emergencies and build resilience to help protect yourself, your family, and your property visit Council's Emergency Information page.
