A well-worn stretch of Coast road has finally received attention from the State Government with a potential upgrade on the horizon. Busy intersections at the Buderim-Mooloolaba interchange of the Sunshine Motorway are regularly backed up as peak hour drivers negotiate the bottleneck. Traffic statistics show 20,000 vehicles a day navigate the key interchange which includes motorway off-ramps as well as Mooloolaba and Sugar Roads. The government is investigating options for upgrades with $1.2 million to go towards looking at a "number of congestion-busting solutions". Transport and Main Roads Minister Mark Bailey said congestion was not uncommon at the interchange. "Work needs to be done to unlock this critical link and improve efficiency and traffic flow for Sunshine Coast commuters," he said.
