Action group claims success

The Empire Bay and Districts Roads Action Group has claimed some success in championing the cause of improving neglected local roads and drains.

The group recently arranged an inspection of roads and drains by the Central Coast Council, including the recently-appointed roads and drains manager Mr Boris Bolgoff.

The group claims, that due to its efforts, a Give Way sign has been approved by the Traffic Committee at the intersection of Rickard and Greenfield Rds, along with new lines and speed signs.

According to the group, costings are being prepared by Council for the complete rebuilding of Greenfield Rd including kerbs, gutters, enclosed drains and a dual-purpose pathway to connect with the existing pathway on the eastern side of Greenfield Rd.

It is expected that this will give school children in the Empire Bay area a safe and secure way to walk or cycle to school.

The costing will be presented to the Member for Terrigal, Mr Adam Crouch, who promised at the Empire Bay Progress Association meeting in August last year to advocate for its funding from the NSW Government.
