Country Grant to Boost Road and Bridge Projects
The Country Roads Board will channel vast funds into road and bridge construction and widening across major highways and forest roads. The plan aims to ease timber transport delays, support post war development, and promote tourism by improving safety and capacity on routes including Princes, Hume, Calder, and Great Ocean Road. Widespread shortages of steel threaten timely progress, but improvements are expected as supplies and labor become available.
