With the Gerringong Omega Bridge now complete, the $580 million construction of the Foxground/Berry Bypass has broken ground, with construction of the long awaited investment beginning in January this year.
If you are lucky enough to reside on the South Coast of NSW, then you have most likely visited the beautiful, quaint town of Berry.
Known for its picturesque scenery and historic culture, access to the region currently falls to a winding single-lane road. One aim of this project is to minimise travel times, whilst maximising safety for the motorists who travel in the region. Kiama MP, Gareth Ward ensures the project will be beneficial to the region. The bypass is expected to create 500 jobs as well as having great economic and safety benefits for the region.
The farming region is very agriculturally and environmentally aware, so it is fitting that the 11.6km bypass will of course include green concrete, as the use of the material is cost and performance competitive”. The road will provide a 4-lane highway (two lanes in each direction) with median separation between Toolijooa Road and Schofields Lane.
Another update of the project will be included in the 2015 Concete Pumpers Annual Magazine. To read more about the project, CLICK HERE!
