A deputation from Bunyah and six residents petitioned Manning Shire Council to lay out and connect a two mile stretch from the Stroud boundary to Bucca Waka road. They argue the road improves outlet to larger towns, reduces stock travel costs, and follows work already planned by Stroud Shire. The council planned to hear a report from the engineer, noting tight finances and reliance on ratepayers, with a decision possible after assessment.
