Shoalhaven City Council's Mayor Amanda Findley turned the first sod today to begin construction of the Far North Collector Road Project which will eventually link North Nowra with Moss Vale Road, Cambewarra.
The roundabout at Illaroo Rd, North Nowra and West Cambewarra Road, Bangalee is the first construction stage of the Far North Collector Road Network Project with the roundabout expected to be completed by December 2020.
Shoalhaven City Council Mayor Amanda Findley thanked the Federal Government for the 13.8 million dollar grant towards the project.
"The Far North Collector Road Network provides an important first stage solution to alleviate the traffic congestion on Illaroo Road by providing traffic with an alternate access point to North Nowra," said Clr Findley.
"The road will have numerous benefits including reduced travel time, reduced traffic noise on Illaroo Road, better emergency response times with improved traffic conditions and reduced emissions pollution," she said.
The design/construction of the Network is expected to generate an estimated 50 jobs with the entire road expected to be complete by December 2022.
