THE Australian Government has announced $70M in additional funding towards upgrading Avoca Drive.
The additional funding comes on top of the Albanese Government’s $30M election commitment, bringing the total Australian Government funding to $100M.
The Australian Government will partner with the NSW Government to deliver the project.
The project will improve safety and reduce congestion on Avoca Drive, including widening the section between Carrak Road and Killuna Road intersections.
This will create a safer road for all road users, including pedestrians and cyclists.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said; “The Australian Government is committed to improving road safety, through infrastructure projects across the Central Coast that will ensure the safety of our community is prioritised.
“This upgrade will greatly improve safety and reduce congestion on Avoca Drive, ensuring motorists get to their destination faster, and safer.”
