Brunswick to Yelgun Pacific Highway upgrade by CM+

CM+ provided architectural and urban design input on the Brunswick to Yelgun upgrade of the Pacific Highway, on the NSW North Coast.

The design theme for the road corridor is inspired by the uniquely beautiful north coast setting of the road and responds to the need for a robust visual experience that would be appreciated in the few minutes it takes to travel the route.

The sculptural Billinudgel Pedestrian Bridge is one of the feature bridges on the route, and provides an important connection between the township and adjoining residential communities.
