Mount Mee Road takes centre stage
The LNP has committed to a detailed design study for upgrades of Mount Mee Road (MMR) through Ocean View if elected this month, following it ranking third on RACQ’s Unroadworthy Roads Survey 2024.
The detailed design study is supposed to set the ball rolling on long awaited upgrades to the goat track of a tourist route from Dayboro to Mount Mee.
LNP Member for Glass House Andrew Powell said the $1 million project would ensure every taxpayer dollar is invested to deliver the maximum benefit.
“The design study is desperately needed to identify what works are needed where on MMR to ensure locals and tourists travel safely and reduce road related incidents,” he said.
Sue Coman, Chair of the Dayboro District Progress Association, welcomed the announcement and said that the area often feels overlooked when it comes to upgrading roads in the rural parts of the state.
“Our town is growing in tourism, as well as having a surge of new home builders joining our community. It is time that the condition of the state roads into our township are inspected and evaluated with a report back to the community,” she said.
