Unemployment Drop Hinted From Canberra Road Plan
The Federal Capital Territory government plans a road construction program costing over £40,000 to reduce unemployment. The project includes reconstructing the Vans-Canberra road under the NEW Main Roads Board, with local unemployed workers recruited. Tendering is expected for a deviation of Coons Road near Ruyalla to remove two railway crossings, creating a direct southbound route. The work aims to improve access to Canberra and Queanbeyan and provide long-term jobs. Additional works include renovating the road from the Prime Minister’s Adelaide Avenue residence to the Governor-General’s residence, with the road to be leveled, cleared, and surfaced in bitumen.
