COWRA COUNCIL
NOTICEBOARD COUNCIL AT WORK — YOUNG ROAD AND INNOVATIVE GRAVEL ROAD REPAIRS Final bitumen sealing of approximately two kilometres of the Young Road by contractors and Council Road Maintenance Crews has seen this project finished well ahead of schedule. Working as contractors for Roads and Maritime Services, the work restored the pavement area of the Olympic Highway with the work costing approximately $750,000. Council crews are also now starting on an innovative surface improvement program to a number of gravel
roads in the Shire. Starting with Barryrennie Road, much of the road surface is to undergo re-pulverising and rock-busting to reduce large stones and remove corrugations from these roads. Research on the gravel surface qualities of these roads could in the future see the problem of corrugations greatly-reduced. Other gravel roads in the Shire being funded for repair under the Roads to Recovery-financed program include Binda Road and Werribee Road.
