Road to Duntroon Shorter Route Studied Until Further Action
Canberra headlines report no current action on shortening the Kingston to Duntroon Fyshwick road. Interior Minister H S Poll said a two year old survey for a direct Kingston traffic link across the Malonglo River and near Bunton was reviewed by the Canberra Town Planning Committee. Senator Poll insists a comprehensive scheme would require large defence-budget funds and traffic diversion from the Military College. He dismissed a suggestion of a low level bridge below the Kingston Weir as impractical and said the matter should wait for a time opportune for a full plan.
