Mischa Fubler, the Junior Minister of Public Works and Environment (File photograph)Roadworks are under way in Warwick to make commuting safer as legislation to improve private road repairs is up for discussion, senators heard this week. Mischa Fubler, the Junior Minister of Public Works and Environment, told the Upper House on Monday that several “solo sweepers” had been hired to clean and maintain vegetation along the island’s public roads. Mr Fubler said that the unpaved road between Longford Road and Lighthouse Road in Warwick would be tackled once paving in Flatts was completed. Mr Fubler said that two pieces of legislation — the Private Roads (Improvement) Act 1969 and the Private Roads (Lighting) Act 1984 — were the subject of public consultation. He explained that changes, which would have island-wide impacts, were aimed at modernising public road legislation “to better improve safety, accessibility and fairness to all residents in all areas”.
