MODERATORS
Also, The current condition (and ongoing condition) of Australia’s primary road surfaces are unsafe even at the current speed limit.
The combination of poor initial construction, decades of neglect, bushfires, floods, abuse by speeding and overweight road users has resulted in a regional road network that is so far gone that the most cost effective solution is to tear up whole sections and start from scratch.
