en.Wedoany.com Reported - The New South Wales Government has announced a AUD 1.1 million safety upgrade for the Lachlan Valley Way, including the installation of 185 kilometers of audible tactile line markings (rumble strips) and 7,200 reflective signs. The road stretches from Cowra to the Hume Highway, serving as a vital transport corridor connecting the South West Slopes of New South Wales with major ports in Sydney and Melbourne.

This investment is separate from over AUD 2 million already spent or underway on safety upgrades along the route, which include 18 kilometers of safety barriers and 80 kilometers of enhanced center line markings already installed. Brendon James, Executive Director of Transport for NSW, stated that the latest works will significantly enhance safety on this key road, helping drivers reach their destinations more reliably.

Construction is scheduled to begin on June 8 and, weather permitting, is expected to be completed by the end of July. During the works, single-lane closures, traffic control, and a 40 km/h speed limit will be in place. Transport for NSW said it will keep the community informed of progress and plans to install additional safety barriers later this year.
