Emergency crews rostered for Byron Bay
If your site is anywhere in Byron Bay or the wider Far North Coast region, you're inside our primary coverage zone for emergency response & after-hours. Our controllers know Ewingsdale Road and the streets around Cape Byron Lighthouse like the back of their hand — permits, LGA conditions, peak-hour detour patterns, the lot. From our nearest crew base in Lismore, we're mobilised to Byron Bay and the surrounding Byron Shire Council LGA inside an hour most days. That local knowledge is why Tier 1 civils and councils keep coming back.
