Ballina Shire Council is progressing plans for the southern extension of Hutley Drive at Lennox Head, connecting to North Creek Road at Skennars Head.
This essential infrastructure will support residential development underway in this area.
The scope of this project includes:
Landscaping works to align with existing streetscapes and natural environment.
This project required the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The Development Application and EIS was approved in 2015, following public exhibition.
Council is continuing pre-construction works and actively seeking grant funding to complete the project.
