ENHANCEMENT works on Darlignton-Nerrin Road from a single lane to double lane road are now complete, giving motorist a smoother and safer journey.<\/p>\n
This is of the many capital works upgrades being delivered by Council, with $738,243 provided from the Australian Government\u2019s Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program.<\/p>\n
Ararat Rural City Council, Tim Harrison, said having a solid road network is paramount to the movement of critical product from the region.<\/p>\n
\u201cGreat progress was carried out by crews to upgrade a section of Darlington-Nerrin Road to a better standard than before \u2013 these works are far more extensive than routine maintenance,\u201d Dr Harrison said.<\/p>\n
\u201cMore than 1300 metres of Darlington-Nerrin Road, between Woorndoo-Streatham Road and Nerrin-Pura Road, have been widened, reconstructed and fully sealed as part of the upgrade.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIncreasing this section of the road from one to two lanes will improve safety and traffic efficiency for heavy vehicles and the farming community,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy investing in road safety upgrades, our routes will become more reliable, productive, and resilient, making our local communities safer while supporting our supply chains to help get primary product to market,\u201d Dr Harrison said.<\/p>\n
The project was carried out by Downer EDI Works Pty Ltd.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
