Council backs road deviation to ease rail crossings near Moonaran Siding
Mandowa Shire Council moved to apply to the Department of Main Roads for a deviation of Trunk Road No 6d near Moonaran Siding to eliminate two railway crossings and a sharp turn. The plan proposes a roughly one mile route at an estimated cost of £1600 with Main Roads Board funding about £1200, while an alternative would cut five crossings but require £500 additional work. The council agreed to meet the Main Roads engineer to inspect both options as safety concerns persist after recent accidents.
