Navigation Drive to link Trinity Beach and Trinity Park

Cairns Regional Council has commenced work on Navigation Drive to provide a new road link between Trinity Beach and Trinity Park.

Navigation Drive is described as a Trunk Road in Council’s Local Government Infrastructure Plan (LGIP) under the Cairns Plan 2016.

This project will position Navigation Drive as a two-lane sub-arterial road. Linking the two existing sections of the road completes the inter suburban connection and provides improved traffic connectivity within and between the catchments with less need for vehicles to use the highway.

Works are expected to be completed by December 2025, weather and other site conditions permitting.

Works will generally be underway from 6:30am – 6:00pm Monday to Friday and 6:30am – 1:00pm Saturday.

Some vegetation clearing will be required to facilitate these works, however this will be kept to a minimum. Replanting will be incorporated into the project’s landscape design.

For more information, please email feedback@cairns.qld.gov.au or call Cairns Regional Council’s Customer Service centre on 1300 69 22 47.
