Andrews offers $250,000

Member for Gosford Ms Marie Andrews has announced $250,000 funding from the State Government for Woy Woy Rd repairs,

Speaking at the Bays Community Group meeting last Monday night, May 19, at the Bays Community Hall, Ms Andrews said the NSW Government would contribute up to $250,000 towards the repair of Woy Woy Rd.

"That is over and above the funding that the government has given to the council to date," Ms Andrews said.

"The Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA) expects that this should cover the cost of repairing that section.

"It is expected to take about eight weeks to complete.

"The RTA is undertaking further geotechnical investigations to identify if additional work is required along the rest of the road.

"The RTA has also offered its resources."
