Motorists await the nine mile link between Cross Ponds and Poilly’s River on the southern road between Mons Vale and Goulburn after about 18 months of reconstruction. An inspection by the Goulburn branch of the National Roads and Motorists’ Association and Wingecarribee Shire engineers indicates the road could open for one way traffic within six to eight weeks if weather cooperates, with a 16 foot asphalt strip likely and traffic limited to one direction until full completion.
