press conference

THE NSW and Federal Governments will be contributing $25 million each towards the construction of the Ellerton Drive Extension in Queanbeyan.

“This is fantastic news for Queanbeyan and the $50 million contribution will ensure Council can move ahead with one of the most important pieces of infrastructure in the city’s history,” Mayor Tim Overall said.

“With Queanbeyan’s population set to grow to around 60,000-70,000 over the next 20 years, the construction of the Ellerton Drive Extension is vital to ensuring Queanbeyan’s traffic network continues to operate at an acceptable standard.”
