Funding at Last for Eumundi-Noosa Road
LNP Member for Noosa, Glen Elmes said today that on the eve of
the State Election, the Government announced that funding had
finally been approved for major roadworks to rehabilitate the
worst section of Eumundi-Noosa Road.
"I started campaigning back in 2007 to have this road extensively
rehabilitated due to its poor condition and I have had to watch
its steady deterioration since then.
"Well over $800,000 has been spent just in the last couple of
years patching-up that small section of the road between Duke
Road and the Emu Mountain roundabout and that has simply been a
case of good money being poured after bad.
"My persistent scrutiny of this project finally paid off and on
the final sitting day of the 53rd Queensland Parliament, an
announcement was made that $6.5 million in funding had been
allocated with work to begin on the rehabilitation works in June;
weather permitting, the work should be completed by the end of
2012. "
Glen Elmes said that the Eumundi-Noosa Road is the main east-west
arterial road linking the Bruce Highway, Eumundi and Noosa with
many thousands of visitors and locals using the road every
day. Once work is completed, they will be able to do so
safely.
"These rehabilitation works will complement the upgrade to
Cooroy-Noosa Road that culminated in over $2 million being spent
on safety measures at the intersection of Cooroy-Noosa Road and
Sunrise Road".
Glen Elmes said that he was delighted with the announcement and
can't wait to see the 'Roadworks' signs go up.
