MEMBER for Lismore Janelle Saffin has welcomed $685,000 in joint State and Federal funding for a major road safety project at South Gundurimba, to be delivered by Lismore City Council.
“The project is for improvements at the intersection of Coraki Road and Wyrallah Ferry Road including road widening, installing dedicated turning lanes and a safety barrier.
“Across regional NSW the Albanese and Minns Governments have today announced 33 projects, totalling almost $20 million, under the Road Safety Program.
“The 50/50 funding program focuses on notorious crossings, intersections and key thoroughfares to reduce the frequency and severity of crashes and help protect local road users.
“I’m pleased to see this intersection at South Gundurimba receiving the much needed safety works,” Ms Saffin said.
“While the Minns and Albanese Governments are committed to reducing trauma on our roads, as road users we need to make safety the top priority every time we get behind the wheel.”
