Call To Free Up Red Tape Surrounding Vital Pacific Highway Upgrades

 BY IAN CROUCH

Federal Lyne MP David Gillespie is calling on the state government to fast track upgrades to key intersections of the Pacific Highway from Port Stephens to the Mid North Coast.

He's also written to Federal Transport Minister, Catherine King seeking a commitment for Commonwealth funding for the projects.

David Gillespie says intersections such as Italia Road, The Bucketts Way, Medowie Road and Myall Way need grade-separated interchanges installed to improve safety and efficiency.

He says too much red tape at a state level is holding up the projects.
