A $5-million dollar new bus interchange at Salamander Bay has today been opened to the public.
The works were completed just in time for Christmas by contractor Daracon on behalf of Port Stephens Council.
The project sees the completion of a new road called Terminus Parade and traffic lights at Bagnall Beach Road.
A taxi rank and shared pathways have also been created, in a move Council hopes will attract shoppers to the Bay's retail precinct.
