PROGRESS ON BROKE ROAD UPGRADE

The first layer of concrete has been poured on the Broke and McDonalds road intersection, with works on track for completion mid-2015.
Work on Broke Road has been underway since 2011, with a $20 million grant from the Hunter Infrastructure and Investment Fund funding the four year program of major works.
The Broke Road project has been completed in phases, with Broke Road East adjacent to Lakes Folly the first area to be upgraded.
Broke Road West has also been completed, with a new road surface and substantial drainage improvements from Harrigan’s Irish Pub to Oakvale Winery.
The current Broke and McDonalds roads intersection project includes an upgrade of the section of McDonalds Road, adjacent to Brokenwood Vineyard, and Broke Road adjacent to Hunter Valley Gardens.
