Constituency questions
Sandringham electorate
Brad ROWSWELL (Sandringham) (14:35): (1230) My constituency question is to the Minister for the Suburban Rail Loop. Residents of Highett have been telling me that they are deeply concerned about the loss of green space at Sir William Fry Reserve on the corner of Bay Road and Nepean Highway. This is a place where locals go to enjoy our environment, young people go to use the playgrounds and skate park and local families go to kick the footy and enjoy time away from school and work. But now the Victorian Labor government want to rip our community’s green space in half and chuck a multibillion-dollar train station, which frankly no-one in my community has ever wanted, smack bang in the middle of Sir William Fry Reserve. When will the minister provide more information on what the government will do to ensure that the quality of life for our residents will not be negatively impacted?
