Munibung Road extension now open
24th April 2020
The 'missing link' on Munibung Road is now open.
The new link extends from the Bunnings roundabout at Boolaroo to Cardiff industrial estate and Macquarie Rd at Cardiff.
Funded by Lake Macquarie City Council and a Federal grant, the link will take a lot of traffic off neighbouring roads and cut travel times significantly for some.
It’s going to take a lot of traffic off Main Road at Glendale and The Esplanade at Speers Point, and travel times will be reduced for a lot of people who live and work in that area.It’s also going to be a vital piece of infrastructure for the many developments we’ll see on the old Pasminco site in the future.
While it's great news, I still have some concerns about the impacts the new road will have on the Macquarie Road intersection. I've made sure that issue is on the radar of the Minister and the RMS (along with our ongoing campaign to fix Hillsborough Road and the roundabout near Speers Point Park). More on that soon hopefully!
