Redland City Council will spend $14 million to upgrade roads as part of its $61.9 million capital budget.

Redland City Mayor Karen Williams said $2.5 million of the investment was earmarked for Southern Redland Bay roads.

“Southern Redland Bay is a key growth area for the Redlands so it is important we provide the road network to support this expected growth,” she said.
