Important Adjunct to Defence Urged for Gloucester to Scone Road
In a letter to the editor Copeland notes Australia’s defence drive needs stronger cross country roads. He cites the Gloucester to Scone route as crucial due to its distance from Wauchope to West Maitland and the lack of interior roads. He contrasts with Wauchope to Casino options and laments years of lethargy and minimal work on the Scone road. He urges rapid, extensive road widening and labor to secure strategic transport to the seaboard.
