if you are heading up the coast tomorrow night, be advised that traffic conditions have changed on the Pacific Motorway at Tugun to carry out investigations.

The southbound lanes of the tunnel will be closed from 8pm on Thursday 8 until 5am on Friday 9 October. If required, investigations may also be carried out on Friday night.

Southbound motorists will be detoured via the Gold Coast Highway exit to rejoin the Pacific Motorway at the Kennedy Drive intersection.

Motorists are advised to drive to the conditions, and follow the directions of signs and traffic control.

Transport for NSW thanks motorists for their patience during this time.
