Tamworth, Australia, plans to invest over $2M to revamp Carthage Street, aiming to enhance safety.

The Tamworth council in Australia is set to invest over $2 million to revamp Carthage Street, one of the city's busiest streets, starting in March 2025. The project aims to improve safety with new measures such as median traffic islands and kerb ramps. The road renewal spans 2.5 kilometers between Kitchener and Bligh streets, to be done in stages. Critics like councilor Mark Rodda question the necessity of the upgrades, suggesting they may not address real safety issues.
