WITH a Federal Election just weeks away, Nationals candidate Alison Penfold has pledged $500k in funding for four projects in the Gloucester region.
If the Coalition is elected to government on 3 May, the following funding has been promised:
– A $380,000 contribution towards replacing four existing light poles at the Gloucester netball courts, and installing eight light poles at the tennis courts.
– $115,000 towards a major facelift to the playground at Wards River Park on the Bucketts Way, installing new playground equipment.
– A share of $350,000 to build a series of half basketball courts throughout the region, including a brand new court in Stratford.
– $50,000 to build a walking path to extend the Stroud Heritage Walk around the showground, down into Mill Creek and link back into town, creating a town loop.
“Each one of these projects will enhance the liveability and lifestyle of communities along Bucketts Way and I’ve committed to delivering this funding after working with members of the community,” Ms Penfold said.
