VIRGINIA horticulture farmers are worried development near the Gawler River could increase the severity of flooding in the event of wild weather.
ADELAIDE Plains Council (APC) and the chair of the Gawler River Floodplain Management Authority (GRFMA) are hopeful large-scale government spending on infrastructure projects could finally see the $27 million Northern Floodway kick-started.
CENTRE Alliance candidate for Grey Andrea Broadfoot has promised to support the region’s proposed Northern Floodway Project if she wins the seat following Saturday’s federal election, while Liberal incumbent Rowan Ramsey is yet to be briefed on the topic.
