Funds to upgrade Hunts Creek culverts  LAWRENCE MACHADO HE Federal Government is working with the City of Parramatta to replace the ageing Hunts Creek culverts with a single span bridge. The government will provide $2M under round five of its Bridge Renewal Program, which is expected to make travel safer for commuters and pedestrians. Western Sydney Liberal Senator, Marise Payne said the federal government was investing in the important infrastructure that Parramatta requires, “future-proofing local roads and supporting local jobs”. “This funding will upgrade Hunts Creek culverts to a single-span bride and make it safer for commuters travelling between North Parramatta and North Rocks,” Ms Payne said.

bridge that will make it safer for heavy vehicles to travel on the key arterial road and improve water flow underneath North Rocks Road at Hunts Creek. According to Michael McCormack, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development, the latest rounds of funding worth more than $290M, will support 350 projects across Australia. “With nearly 80 per cent of this funding going to local councils, the outcomes of these rounds will support local workers, households and businesses through a difficult time and position the Australian economy for a strong recovery,” Mr McCormack said. “Now more than ever, the continued roll out of road infrastructure projects is important to support local jobs, underpin economic growth and ensure all Australians can reach their destinations sooner and safer and communities can rest assured that’s exactly what our Government is doing.”

Action Insurance Brokers, with offices in Penrith and Bella Vista, had as many workers as possible working from home and were fastidious in taping the floors for safe movement of customers and installing safety screen guards to minimise contact between staff and customers. But Kellyville Soccer Club appears to have been more proactive than others by becoming pandemic safe way back in March when most people were only learning about the disease.
