Major works completed in Murray Street, Tully

Cassowary Coast Regional Council

THE major $1.87 million Murray Street Upgrade project to upgrade this key road in Tully is now completed.

Murray Street is a key connector road in Tully, and during previous wet seasons, the road experienced potholes, required frequent maintenance and had flooding issues.

These works have renewed vital infrastructure, improved flood immunity by upgrading drainage and improved safety and access by undertaking intersection changes.

The township of Tully and the Cassowary Coast is growing, so the region needs infrastructure and services to accommodate current residents, as well as provide for future population growth.

Another key focus of the project was the creation of jobs and supporting the Cassowary Coast construction industry, with several local contractors and CCRC collaborating for the delivery of the project.

The Works undertaken include replacement/upgrade culverts, installation of kerb and channel upgrades to the Intersection, renewal of pavement, including the installation of asphalt and replacement of the existing water main.

This project was made possible through joint funding provided by the Australian Government and Cassowary Coast Regional Council.

Australian Government funding of nearly $1.14 million was provided through the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure (LRCI) and Roads to Recovery (R2R) programs, with Cassowary Coast Regional Council providing the remaining funding of $730,714.

The LRCI program supports councils throughout Australia to deliver priority local road and community infrastructure projects, whilst the R2R program improves safety, accessibility, and economic and social outcomes by supporting the construction and maintenance of local roads.
