Manning Shire Council Backs Gloucester Route For Pacific Highway
Manning Shire Council on Wednesday adopted the president Dr H Deer suggestion to back the Gloucester route with deviations for the Poole Highway reconnection. The council and Central North Coast councils plan to appeal to Federal authorities for a £200,000 fund to finish the route to highway standard. The group noted the Gloucester route offers defense advantages, carries increasing road traffic, and avoids sea attack risks, while acknowledging the Karuah coastal option may be cheaper but could yield air travel as interstate demand grows.
