The Albanese Government is committing more than $2.6 million to Eden-Monaro projects as part of $45.1 million committed to 82 sites on NSW roads under the 2026-27 Black Spot Program funding round.
The projects will deliver cost-effective safety improvements at two identified black spots to help reduce the chances of serious crashes occurring.
- More than $850,000 for safety upgrades, including curve alignment markers, sealed shoulders, new and improved barriers, and new signage, on 390m of Brayton Road, Marulan, south of Ambrose Road to mitigate the high and increasing volumes of traffic, including heavy vehicles, that have resulted in fatalities and injuries.
- More than $1.7 million for safety improvements on Arthur Kaine Drive and Toallo Street in Pambula to address 35 reported hazards, including narrow lanes, poor visibility, lack of pedestrian links, speed, delays and growth pressures that are increasing risk. Works will include installation of a roundabout at the intersection of Arthur Kaine Drive and Munje Street.
The projects were recommended by the NSW Black Spot Consultative Panel. This panel is comprised of local stakeholders to ensure nominations of the highest priority and importance to the local community are recommended for approval.
The Albanese Government has increased annual Black Spot Program funding to $150 million, improving road safety at sites right across the country.
It is a key part of our commitment to reducing fatalities and serious injuries on our roads.
Anyone can nominate a Black Spot for consideration, including individuals, community groups and local councils.
