Council set to sign Black Mountain landslide repair contract

The Black Mountain Road landslide repair effort has reached a major milestone with Council set to award a construction contract – the biggest single construction contract Noosa Council has ever approved.

The Black Mountain landslide is as wide as a rugby league playing field and as deep as a five-storey building.

The decision at a recent special meeting gives Council’s Acting CEO Larry Sengstock a green light to finalise details of the contract with contractor Hazell Bros.

Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart said the decision was an important milestone in the landslide repair effort.
