Daryl Maguire MP, Member for Wagga Wagga said the NSW Government funded work will deliver 4.3 million square metres of much-needed resealing work from Yass to Wentworth, Hillston to Albury and everywhere in between from September to May next year. “More than 4.5 million litres of bitumen and 25,000 cubic metres of aggregate will be rolled out by Roads and Maritime Services in the next seven months,” Mr Maguire said. “The resealing process involves the resurfacing of roads to protect the underlying structure and provide a safe, textured surface for motorists to travel on.” More than 370 kilometres of resealing work will be carried out at various locations on the Sturt Highway, Silver City Highway, Olympic Highway, Irrigation Way, Cobb Highway, Snowy Mountains Highway, Barton Highway, Hume Highway, Riverina Highway, Kidman Way, Burley Griffin Way, Newell Highway, Mid Western Highway and Lachlan Valley Way. “Work will be delivered in mostly rural areas, some semi-rural areas and some urban areas, with some of this work will be delivered by local councils and industry partners on behalf of Roads and Maritime,” Mr Maguire said. “The South West sealing crew, consisting of 17 workers based at Narrandera, is one of three Roads and Maritime crews delivering this high-value, high-volume work across NSW.

The sign, which is understood to have been in place for some 25 years, is outdated and affected by graffiti. Ashleigh asked about the possibility of changing the sign so that it refers to the “Murrumbidgee Irrigation Area” instead of “M.I.A.” and features an italicised “i” symbol. Phil explained that the design of the sign is outdated and no longer available under the NSW Tourist Signposting Manual. David added that there are several signs near the boundaries of the Riverina Tourism area that welcome visitors to the area and give distances to visitor information centres.

The proposal involves widening and upgrading all intersection legs, installing new traffic lights and upgrading the existing Irrigation Way bridge with a new culvert structure. The work will improve safety and productivity for road users by boosting the capacity of existing roads, particularly for heavy vehicle drivers. The existing intersection is a priority intersection with a “Give Way” control for the side roads - Burley Griffin Way and Kurrajong Avenue. The Narrandera to Griffith rail line is immediately north of the intersection and runs alongside Irrigation Way and Mackay Avenue. As part of the proposal, a Review of Environmental Factors (REF) was prepared to assess the likely impact of the proposal on the environment and to detail the protective measures to be implemented.
