 Ms HALL (Footscray) (5993)

My question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. I am seeking an update for my community on the Andrews government’s efforts to upgrade and improve active transport options including cycling paths in the Footscray electorate. Footscray itself is just 7 kilometres from the CBD. Our community is very young, and very mobile. I regularly receive emails and phone calls from constituents advocating for improved cycling connections. With the Footscray learning precinct actively encouraging intra-suburb travel and the $1.5 billion new Footscray Hospital increasing traffic and employment in the area, new and improved bike paths have never been more important.
