More than $2 million in contracts have been awarded to local Somerset businesses for projects across the region.
Businesses based in Moore, Fernvale and Harlin have been awarded the contracts to carry out works.
Economic Recovery Subgroup representative Councillor Bob Whalley said more than ever, the region needed to support its local businesses.
“These contracts are for supply and delivery of concrete throughout the region and for widening and strengthening the southern part of Lowood Minden Road,” Cr Whalley said.
“State and Council funds will directly contribute to jobs growth during the construction period and improve long term safety, traffic flows and productivity on Lowood-Minden Road, which is our busiest local road.”
