New portion of East-West Arterial extension opening

The National Roads Authority has announced that a new section of the East-West Arterial road – called the East–West Agricola – will open for public use on 4 Sept.

Drivers will now be able to use the new stretch of road between the Hirst Road-Rex Crighton Boulevard junction and Agricola Drive, off Shamrock Road.

The East-West Agricola is the first phase of the much larger project to extend the East–West Arterial eastwards. That phase was first opened to the public on a temporary basis during the Agriculture Show in March. For a more complete summary of the story, please see the below link:
