Bituminous Road To Extend To Jamestown
South Australia outlines a multi year plan for bituminous concrete roads from Adelaide to Jamestown via Clare and Spalding and to Port Augusta via Gladstone and Wirrabara. The new method uses stone and bitumen as cement, with a simpler plant enabling multiple construction sites and durable outcomes comparable to older asphaltum methods. State and federal funding increases road work, with most motor tax revenue from the metropolis spent on country roads.
