  1. Additional comments for Item 4. Road Maintenance.
    – Increasing the width of the road from township to the dam so vehicles don’t have to get off the bitumen when passing an oncoming vehicle. This road is very well used as the roadside clearly demonstrates.
    – In some spots the difference in height between the bitumen and the roadside is quite nasty and there are plenty of boggy patches to navigate which is not a pleasant experience for any driver, more particularly the visiting ones who are not accustomed to such navigation.
    – Replacing the “End 40km’ with an actual speed limit would be more appropriate and I suggest that it should be limited to 60km rather than giving the perception motorists are entering a State speed limit of 100kmh zone
