Parra Road’s worst in State

PARRAMATTA Road at Auburn has been identified as the State’s worst road after a record 28,292 votes were counted in NRMA’s Rate Your Roads survey.

Thousands of Australians voted for the worst and best roads across NSW in what is Australia’s largest transport survey, with a record 10,800 roads flagged in the survey – and Parramatta Road, Auburn, topping the list due to congestion and the condition of the road.
State MP for Auburn, Lynda Voltz, said the survey confirmed what everyone in Sydney knew.
“This is indicative of the NSW Liberal Government’s failure to deliver to Western Sydney and areas in need,” she said.
NRMA spokesperson Peter Khoury thanked the community for helping to again break the record on the number of votes for its survey and highlighted that the invaluable data would help the organisation fight for better community outcomes over the next four years.
“The NRMA thanks those thousands of Australians who had their say on what is a critical issue facing our nation and joined a grass roots campaign to make our roads safer and more efficient,” Mr Khoury said.
“This community-led advocacy works – some of the state’s worst roads no longer make the list because governments have responded by investing in solutions. This has helped save lives, boosted our economy and got our members home to their families faster.”
