Central Coast Council has received $40 million from the Australian Government to deliver a Central Coast Local Roads Package, following a 2022 Labor election commitment. 
 
The funding package will see the delivery of 46 individual projects to be carried out over a four-year period, from 2023/24 to 2026/27.

Projects will involve 45 Road Pavement Upgrades and one Road and Drainage Upgrade which will benefit roads across the Central Coast.  Once completed, these priority projects will improve safety and driving conditions on the road network across the Coast.

Projects were identified by taking the current road condition and life-cycle costs associated with any proposed treatment/upgrade into consideration. The focus of this program, which is targeted at pavement upgrades, does not provide kerb and gutter where it currently does not exist. These pavement upgrades will also reduce ongoing maintenance costs.
Council thanks the Australian Government for this important funding and will continue to work with them on the delivery of these projects.

Priority road projects identified within the $40 million grant funding program are listed below:

The above projects being delivered across 2023/24 to 2026/27 can be viewed on Council’s online capital works interactive map. Please note that projects will only appear the year they are being delivered.
