Work will soon begin on a section of Alison Road in Coogee, to address cracking and stripping and will include fixing sunken and dilapidated sections of kerb and gutter.
The project, part of the Roads to Recovery program, will entail heavy patching on the pavement and the reconstruction of dilapidated areas, including displaced footpath slabs.
Work on this project is expected to be completed in mid-2022.
The Roads to Recovery Program aims to support ongoing improvements and maintenance of national local road infrastructure assets, such as Alison Road, for safer access to commuters.
“Roads to Recovery Program allocations for the councils in each jurisdiction are determined on the basis of the recommendations of the Local Government Grants Commissions in each state and the Northern Territory for the roads component of the Financial Assistance Grants” the Federal Government stated.
“Under the Roads to Recovery Program, direct funding to local councils is distributed according to a formula based on population and road length set by the Local Government Grants Commissions in each state and the Northern Territory. Each council’s Roads to Recovery allocation is fixed for the life of the Program.”
Since 2013, Randwick City Council’s public roads have achieved a “very strong” rating from the Division of Local Government and have remained among the top three councils in Sydney with good roads, footpaths, buildings, and drains.
