The federal government has committed an extra $27 million towards infrastructure projects in the ACT, as the Commonwealth axes funding for 50 road and rail projects across the country.
As previously reported in The Canberra Times, the majority of this additional spend ($25 million) will go towards the Molongo River bridge crossing. Gundaroo Drive duplication and Beltana Road improvements will receive an extra $1.8 million and $300,000 respectively.
