Patience urged over Barrabool Rd

I HAVEhad many residents asking me when the council will fix Barrabool Rd.

My advice has been this: please understand Barrabool Rd is the responsibility of VicRoads road rather than of COGG.

I have spoken with the Member for South Barwon, Mr Andrew Katos, and VicRoads, and they have advised they are unable to reseal the road until the weather improves.

I understand this is a frustrating time for all residents, as I, too, travel this road at least twice a day. As soon as I hear any updates as to when this road will be fixed, I will advise residents.

For all concerned, I pose this request: please consider others along this stretch of road, as stones do fly up and hit other cars. Your patience and careful driving is appreciated by all.

A reader makes a tongue-in-cheek suggestion authorities could change the name of Armstrong Creek to Cadel Evans.
