CONSTRUCTION on the second stage of the $3.8 million upgrade to Kapunda’s East Terrace will start this month.
The project will improve East Terrace between the Thiele Highway and Perry Road to eventually allow for modern heavy vehicles to use the road and detour around Kapunda’s town centre.
The $3.8 million project, which completes the heavy vehicle freight route for the area, has been jointly funded by Light Regional Council and the Federal Government, which provided $1.9 million.
Pre-construction activities such as tree removal, new property fencing, service relocations and accommodation works were carried out earlier this year, with council recently advising the main civil construction was now due to start.
The project will see improvements to the Thiele Highway and Perry Road intersections, drainage construction, and general road realignment, construction and sealing.
