Apparently Shellharbour Council has just formally approved OJA to come to Albion Park. Great news!

Now to wait for the date!

Matthew Chisholm · #**433** 10th February 2015, 10:24 AM

Fingers crossed for either 8th or 9th of March.

Rowan McKeever · #**434** 10th February 2015, 12:30 PM

Ditto to that Matthew!

Although I'm pleased it's happening, I'm not entirely pleased - I have to drive through Albion Park on my way to Nowra and back.

Will have to keep my eyes wide open on traffic arrangements along the highway.

You can either go via Warilla, or if you know the back roads, through the back of Dapto and Marshall Mount which then brings you out in Albion Park - from there you can go via the scenic Jamberoo run to Kiama http://goo.gl/maps/o4WU8, or take the East-West link and rejoin the highway at the south end of Albion Park Rail http://goo.gl/maps/MGoHw
