I thank the member for some notice of this question.
(1) The
culvert in question is currently being monitored by the Shire of Quairading on
a monthly basis for deterioration.
(2) It is
expected that this culvert will not prevent grain trucks of RAV 4 or 5
configuration using this road.
(3) As part of
the grain freight program, a major realignment is planned making this defective
culvert redundant.
