Cooma Monaro Shire and Snowy River Shire Councils would like to inform the community that the planned Road Closure of Bobeyan Road at the Bolaro Bridge scheduled for 20 May to 15 July 2013, has been postponed.
Public concerns regarding Councils’ communication strategy and timing of the works have been noted and have factored in the decision to review the planned work program.
Although work will continue with some facets of the bridge repairs, both Councils believe it's in the best interest of the community to further review the required road closures with the local businesses and residents, with the aim of minimising any impacts and providing adequate advice to the communities.
For additional information contact either the Works Manager Cooma-Monaro Shire Council on 0439 061 354 or the Manager of Operations Snowy River Shire Council on 0408 692 624.

All too often weed management officers are portrayed as being the ‘The Bad Guys’, with many landholders being too afraid to approach them for the fear of being prosecuted for harbouring noxious weeds. The truth is, most landholders (including the weed management officers) have weeds of some description on their own properties. The question is, are they being managed appropriately to prevent them from spreading to neighbouring lands, and from impacting on the district’s agricultural and environmental assets?
