Adjournment
Monbulk electorate road safety
Monbulk electorate road safety
Daniela DE MARTINO (Monbulk) (19:09): (1256) My adjournment matter is for the Minister for Roads and Road Safety, and the action I seek is for the minister to visit the Monbulk district to experience the condition and challenges of some of our state roads. Our roads across the hills are winding, narrow and often heavily trafficked. These roads are essential not only for daily travel but also for emergency services, freight and tourism. Whilst I acknowledge the work that has been done to maintain and upgrade sections of the network, there remain areas of concern which do require further attention. Residents regularly raise issues with me regarding road safety, visibility, drainage and maintenance. A visit from the minister would provide an opportunity for her to see these roads and their challenges, and I look forward to her visiting my district.
