Property owners and drivers can only enter or exit at specific, approved points.\n\n**Which roads are affected:**\n- **Section (a):** A 9.14 km stretch from the Pipers River bridge to about 4.3 km east of Dalrymple Road (near Lefroy Road)\n- **Section (b):** A 7.55 km stretch from just east of Dalrymple Road to where it meets the East Tamar Highway\n\n**Where you CAN get on or off:**\nThe proclamation lists **10 specific places** where access is permitted — including Weymouth Road, School Road, Back Creek Road, Lefroy Road, Dalrymple Road, and others. These are marked by distances from the Pipers River bridge.\n\n**Why this matters:**\nThis improves road safety and traffic flow by preventing random turns and crossings on what is likely a busy or high-speed route. It protects drivers from unexpected vehicles entering the road while still allowing local property owners and traffic to use designated access points."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/tas-sr-1998-186","history":"/api/acts/tas-sr-1998-186/history","analysis":"/api/acts/tas-sr-1998-186/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/tas-sr-1998-186/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/tas-sr-1998-186/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/tas-sr-1998-186/documents"}}
