Page 11 Bodhi Bus passengers in Beswick now have a place to wait for their ride away from the harsh Top End elements after a long-awaited infrastructure project was completed in the community on November 28. A bus stop has been on the want list of residents for some time and became a reality as a result of the project, which utilised more than $5000 in Local Authority funding and labour supplied by Community Development Program participants. Central Arnhem Area Manager Nathan McIvor said it had been thrilling to watch the project take shape and provide an asset for the Beswick community. Beswick bus passengers welcome new infrastructure AEC thanks for Councils election assistance The invaluable assistance Roper Gulf Regional Council provided in remote communities during the 2016 Federal Election has been recognised by the Australian Electoral Commission. Ensuring the electoral process runs smoothly in remote communities is one of the biggest hurdles faced by the AEC every three years, and the Council helped by providing locations for voting booths and on-the-ground assistance. AEC staff from Darwin presented a Certificate of Recognition to the Council during a special visit to Katherine on November 3.
