My wife and I are very much over the Moon (being very sarcastic here) about the $70M upgrade of Avoca Dr (CCN375).
While residents of the southern part of the Central Coast will be very happy about, those of us on the northern part, not so much!
I live on Budgewoi Rd (Central Coast Hwy – name’s a bit of a joke really) and every day I need to negotiate potholes into my driveway.
Council and the Shadow Minister know about it, but nothing has been done.
As far as I can tell, Council hasn’t even been to have a look.
That and the fact that people use this stretch of road as a Speedway – you really take your life in your hands walking over to the beach.
So you lucky people on the south of the Coast are blessed indeed.
Us northerners, not so much, so com.
Come on Council, for heaven’s sake, spread the love a bit more.

Cynical view but you won’t need speed bumps if you’ve got potholes. I wrote a post a couple of months ago about motorists having to cross the centre line on a Buddy road to avoid potholes and council were out in force 3 days later…. Coincidence???
When will council and police do something about Buff Point Ave, and Girraween Ave, Buff Point? It’s become an alternate route for trucks, which is causing potholes in both Buff Point Ave and Girraween Ave. The trail bikes also use this route to race, causing danger to those who need to walk on the road. There are no pathways;so school children, the elderly, and dog walkers are required to dodge speeding cars and bikes. A council ranger lay in wait to fine a 75 year old woman who walked her well behaved older dog, off lead, during a rainy afternoon, with no other people around. However, speeding cars doing burn outs, trail bikes and kids on dangerous electric scooters suffer no such consequence.
something has to be done to bring about some responsible governance of our community.
