Page "Southern Expressway" Paragraph 4

On 17 February 2010 Premier Mike Rann announced that the expressway would be duplicated in a A $ 445m project, including a new A $ 75m interchange at Darlington ( which was later scrapped ).

This was driven by the planning of a major transport hub at Darlington, during which the government discovered that it faced having to build a $ 50 million section of road that would have to be destroyed when the expressway was eventually duplicated.
