Lights Road Upgrade

The Shire of Denmark commissioned upgrades to Lights Road (linking South Coast Highway to Lights Beach) in 2024 to improve drainage, reconstruct pavement, replace culverts, and preserve its forested environment while managing tourist-season traffic. MCC deployed an 8-person crew plus supervisor, pruning trees, stabilising wet zones, installing kerbing, line marking and improving drainage. Despite weather delays, works were completed under an extension. The upgrade made the road safer, more resilient, aesthetically intact, and gained strong community support.

THE CHALLENGE

Lights Road links South Coast Highway to Lights Beach and is vital for tourism, farming and local transport. MCC was engaged by the Shire of Denmark to reconstruct the pavement, replace culverts and improve drainage — all while preserving the heavily treed environment and managing tourist-season traffic disruptions.

OUR SOLUTION

We deployed an 8-person crew and full-time Supervisor to deliver the entire scope — from tree pruning and mulching to pavement, drainage, kerbing and line marking. We stabilised wet zones using lime rubble and cement-bound base. Liaising closely with residents and the Shire, we balanced environmental care with infrastructure upgrades and implemented a detailed TMP to maintain access during road closures.

THE RESULTS

Despite delays caused by weather, works were completed under an agreed extension. Lights Road is now safer, better drained and more resilient, while its forested aesthetics remain intact. The outcome met stakeholder expectations and received strong community support.
