Murray River Council
Murray River Council has set its sights on obtaining funding to seal the final 22km of unsealed road along Perricoota Rd between Moama and Barham.
Raised as a Notice of Motion at its council meeting on Tuesday, Council heard several community deputations urging council to prioritise the road sealing.
Matters of safety, tourism trade and better linkages between Moama and Barham were raised.
Mayor Chris Bilkey said council agreed to put extra efforts into gaining funding for the delivery of the project.
“We absolutely understand the concerns from residents regarding the state of the unsealed section of the road and we want to assure the community that we will look to prioritise funding applications around this.”
