A DOVETON intersection will be made safer after a $86,000 Federal Government funding boost.
The money will be used to modify the roundabout deflection at the intersection at Power Road and Kidds Road.
The project was recommended by a panel of independent road safety experts and will be delivered during the course of the coming financial year (2013-14).
Holt MP Anthony said that since being elected in 2007, the Federal Labor Government has allocated over $1.5 million to fix eight black spots across the Holt electorate.
“This investment is helping to make our local roads even safer for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians, with six of these projects already completed,” said Mr Byrne.
“And the good thing about our Black Spot program is that anyone can suggest an intersection or section of road they believe should be considered for a safety upgrade.
