Road safety – driving on country roads
Road travel to Cadia is on sealed public rural roads. Road signage is in place to indicate speed limits and hazard warnings. Road surface conditions can vary, and speed should be reduced to suit those conditions.
We expect all visitors, and contractors to obey road signage and be aware that we share the public roads with our farming neighbours and other motorists. Drivers should also be alert to animals crossing and black ice in winter.
Parking at site
Car parking is available on site. To reduce traffic, we encourage carpooling and a dedicated section of the car park is reserved for carpooling vehicles. Many contracting partners provide buses for their workshop to minimise cars on the road, and congestion in the carpark.
