Re opening Road After 72 Years
The Highways and Department forwarded a plan for a deviation of the district road linking Main Road 46 with Burra South and Clare Road. The project would reconnect Clare Road near Brown's farm to Adelaide Road, reopening a section closed since 1881. Burra Town Council would use Loman land and require fencing, a costly step, as the road straightens ahead of a future bitumen road to connect Burra and Adelaide.
