“The new plan is proposed to improve pedestrian safety and amenity of Wauchope CBD area in High Street,” Mrs Pavey said.
“The NSW Government has committed $530,000 from Transport for NSW’s Active Transport program.
“This funding includes $320,000 next financial year for the innovative project, which is being delivered by Roads and Maritime Services in partnership with Port Macquarie Hastings Council.
“Eight businesses registered to submit a detailed design tender for consideration to complete the work on High Street.
“High Street is the main road through Wauchope and forms part of the Oxley Highway.
