The last unsealed section of Williams Road at Benarkin will be getting a bitumen seal this month to put an end to long-standing road maintenance problems (Photo: SBRC)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

July 7, 2020<\/strong><\/p>\n

A “missing link” on one of Benarkin’s key connector roads is getting a long-overdue makeover from the South Burnett Regional Council.<\/p>\n

Williams Road connects Benarkin to Benarkin North, and most of its 6km length has a single-lane seal.<\/p>\n

However, an 800 metre unsealed section has been a constant source of headaches for local drivers and Council road crews.<\/p>\n

It stretches up a hill and can quickly become corrugated after heavy rain.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, Deputy Mayor Gavin Jones confirmed this section of Williams Road would be getting a bitumen seal.<\/strong><\/p>\n

He said the seal would be six to eight metres wide and he hoped the job would be completed by the end of July, weather permitting.<\/p>\n

Cr Jones – who chairs the Roads portfolio – said he would be inspecting the site on Wednesday afternoon to assess progress.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
