Alton Road Upgrades

It's been a long time coming, but the traffic lights have been turned on marking the completion of the Alton Road upgrade at Cooranbong.

Some years ago I sourced a $4.8 million State Government grant to fund the project and I'm so pleased to see it finally come to fruition.

In addition to traffic lights, the upgrade features widened traffic lanes and pedestrian crossings - making this notorious intersection safer for everyone.

My thanks to Minister for the Hunter Yasmin Catley MP and Lake Macquarie City Council and Cr Kay Fraser - Lake Macquarie Mayor for delivering the project in-house.
