The Governor of Tasmania has issued a proclamation that changes the recorded length of the Mount William Developmental Road from 22.21 kilometres to 22.12 kilometres — a reduction of just 90 metres. This is an administrative update to official records under the Roads and Jetties Act 1935. It affects government records and potentially any legal documents that reference the official length of this specific road. It matters because accurate measurements are needed for maintenance planning, funding calculations, and legal descriptions of road boundaries."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2015-095","history":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2015-095/history","analysis":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2015-095/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2015-095/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2015-095/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/tas-sr-2015-095/documents"}}
