Nowhere are the roads as bad

I would just like to express my feelings about the roads in the Woy Woy, Umina and Ettalong area here on the Peninsula.

I have lived here for 42 years and never have I seen such a lack of public works done on the roads in this area.

Even the roads in Fiji are of better quality than here.

The potholes and patchwork on some of the roads are only the tip of the iceberg: Gallipoli Ave, Trafalgar Ave, Paton St, Billabong, Dunmore, Moana, and nearly all off streets on Ocean Beach Rd, just to name a few.

I've been to many states in Australia.

I've been to many countries outside of Australia and nowhere are the roads as bad as here.

Sure there are areas in Australia that one or two roads, but it is getting to a point on the Peninsula now that it is every road.

You can't blame this on the rain because it has been like this for many years.

My street is a three-tonne max road, yet council continues to drive trucks up and down everyday of the week.

I have complained so many times its not funny.

The buses use this road as well even though this is not a bus route.

I am sorry to say that there is truly no excuse for the roads.

We are not going to get kerb and guttering, I know, but at least we could have roads that are still OK to walk on.

Quiet frankly, I would like to see Frank Sartor take control of the Section 94 funding

At least he might spend it on our roads which is more than the council does.
