Deputy Premier
The NSW Government is powering ahead with plans for the Singleton bypass, announcing it will build a full interchange for the bypass with the Putty Road.
Deputy Premier John Barilaro and Minister for Regional Transport and Roads Paul Toole said the Singleton bypass would be the biggest road infrastructure project in Singleton’s history.
“We are getting on with the job of building the game changing bypass that Singleton deserves,” Mr Barilaro said.
“We’ve heard from the community that they want a full interchange at Putty Road to make it easier to access Singleton town centre from the bypass and that’s what we will deliver.

Work should begin within the year on a $2.24 million upgrade to the dilapidated Pearces Creek Bridge, as announced on Wednesday by the state government.
Haulage restrictions and single-lane traffic flow will come to an end on the ageing bridge on Eltham Road in the Ballina Shire after the upgrade is complete.
Ballina mayor David Wright welcomed the funding, announced under the NSW Government’s Fixing Country Bridges Program.
“Pearces Creek Bridge is an important transport link for our community connecting two shires (Lismore and Ballina), schools, businesses, as well as residents,” Cr Wright said.
“The project will improve safety for road users, reduce maintenance costs and reinstate the bridge from one lane to two lanes.
