The road upgrade received a $350,000 grant from the state government through it’s Agrilinks Upgrade program, so it could be widened and better cater for heavy vehicles used to transport beef, wool and other farm produce.
New barriers have also been installed on the road to boost safety.
“This investment in local road upgrades benefits all road users, particularly farmers and producers, who need to travel long distances to connect with customers and markets,” Ms Crugnale said.
Bass Coast Mayor, Cr Michael Whelan said the agriculture and dairy industry is a significant contributor to the Bass Coast economy and employs 638 residents
“The delivery of the Agrilinks Upgrade Program will support our farmers and provide safer roads for all users, including nearby residents and visitors to the Bass Hills,” Cr Whelan said.
