Ballina Bypass update Initial works on the Ballina Bypass have commenced with work being visibly carried out on the southern end of the bypass route, near Teven Road. The $331 million Ballina Bypass project has been jointly funded by the Federal and State Government and the Federal Minister for Local Government, Territories & Roads Jim Lloyd (pictured centre left) recently inspected the initial construction works. Due to the deep soft soils along the new bypass a new method called ‘vacuum consolidation’ is being used to stabilise the soil. The Ballina Bypass is one of the fi rst road projects in Australia to use this method.

The Brunswick Heads to Yelgun section of the upgrade is expected to be completed in May 2007. Community Colleges I recently was able to announce that the NSW Liberal/Nationals Coalition’s policy is to reinstate funding for Community Colleges back to 2002-03 levels of $10.3 million a year. This will be done with incremental increases of $2 million per year between 2007/08 and 2009/10. The NSW Coalition policy is also to provide free English Language courses at NSW Community Colleges to assist those who wish to develop their English language skills. The Ballina Electorate is home to several Community Colleges, all of which are being underfunded by the current Labor Government. Over the past four years the Labor Government has halved the funding for community colleges to $4.3 million this fi nancial year. The sector now comprises only 0.04% of the State education budget yet provides a crucial educational and societal service to around 300,000 people. Community Colleges are a vital element of our education system (especially in numeracy, literacy and pre-vocational education) and Pacifi c Highway upgrade deserve to be funded as such. The recent NRMA audit of the Pacifi c Highway found that at the current funding level it could take as long as 20 to 25 years to complete the upgrade of the highway between Hexham and the Queensland border. During this time as many as 100 people could die on the stretch of the Pacifi c Highway between Ballina and Brunswick Heads – 100 Stamp Duty concessions lives too many. The Pacifi c Highway is a dangerous stretch of road that needs to be upgraded to dual for rental accommodation carriageway as quickly as possible.

Byron Bay 56 February 20, 2007 Byron Shire Echo www.echo.net.au Backlash Our apologies to Warren Baker, the dancer on the right of last week’s front page photo, who we incorrectly identifi ed as Sean Kay. QQQQ Byron Shire Council was off to a busy start in its fi rst meeting of 2007 last Thurs- day with a few controversial issues and plenty of punters seeking public access. Dur- ing the holiday break some wag had managed to stick the word ‘vagina’ on a piece of paper up high on a high glass wall of the chambers behind the outside timber louvres. A council worker with a ladder was dispatched to remove the offending ana- tomical description. The ‘prepare to take off ‘ warning came a little late for four nudists with altitude when they went up with Byron Bay Ballooning on Saturday morning. Also after something a little different (in the other QQQQ balloon behind), a small wedding party saw bride and groom exchange vows 1500 ft above Clunes.
