Campaspe Shire Council has welcomed a positive outcome on an advocacy priority of more than a decade, with the announcement of federal government funding for urgent upgrade works at the Echuca aerodrome.
$2.35M will be added to $2.45M from the council to ensure the aerodrome meets industry standards, and provides for the continuation of vital medical access to cross-border communities.
Mayor Rob Amos commended shire officers for their work to secure the vital funding.
