One way traffic trial for Centennial Circuit in Byron A&I estate
Businesses and regular visitors to the Byron Arts and Industry Estate are asked to get ready for a one-way traffic trial on Centennial Circuit.
The trial will start in the last week of February 2021 and will run for six months to September.
Isabelle Hawton, Project Planner, said locals are aware that traffic and congestion are increasing problems and the concept of a one-way traffic trial came out of the development of the Byron Arts and Industry Estate Precinct Plan in 2019.
“As part of the development of the Precinct Plan we spoke to residents, business owners and people who work in the estate and feedback from them included a need for better traffic management,” Ms Hawton said.

Now Madge was a Corporal in WWII, and when the armed robber told her to get down on the floor, she told him she WAS NOT GOING TO GET ON THE FLOOR FOR ANYONE! (Yes, I imagine it being said it in all capitals too – Granny) Apparently she stood her ground . and the bank was successfully robbed, too.”

The researchers discovered an Australian freighter – SS Wollongbar II – when it was discovered off the east coast of Australia near the town of Crescent Head, in the state of New South Wales.

The Richmond Tweed Regional Mobile Library was a common sight around the region prior to the COVID-19 pandemic and it is once again going to be out and about for readers from this week.
The service covers the Northern Rivers and stopped operating last year in April when the pandemic hit. The mobile library has recently started visiting the community at its larger sites such as Pottsville, Wollongbar, and Nimbin and will this week increase its range of stops to include Goolmangar, Bangalow, and Federal as it extends its range.

Subscriber only A 2 ha site within the Ballina Shire has been identified as the best location for a future wildlife hospital. Chairperson of Northern Rivers Wildlife Hospital Inc, Ninian Gemmel, said the not-for-profit has been busy trying to find a suitable site for the precinct within the Department of Primary Industries precinct in Wollongbar. In the last six months, we have found a site in Wollongbar and we have signed a memorandum of understanding (with DPI), he said. It allows us to go ahead and make investigations and see what we need to do to modify the land, before any building modification works take place.
