The southbound lane was to have opened last week but the wet weather has affected the base course.
MidCoast Council reports that this lane will be open to traffic at the end of next week, weather permitting.
Work on the northbound lanes is progressing as planned, and the project is on target for completion at the end of September.
The section being targeted for its failed pavement runs from Albert Street to Wynter Street, with contractors due to undertake a full reconstruction of both lanes as well as driveway replacements, footpaths in front of businesses, stairs and median islands and roadside drainage improvements.
The project is funded through Roads to Recovery funding and MidCoast Council’s Roadcare program.
