Croydon electorate
Mr HODGETT (Croydon) (14:45): (6240) My constituency question is for the Minister for Roads and Road Safety, and I would like to ask the minister: when will work for the Dorset Road upgrade and Canterbury Road improvement be undertaken and completed by the state government? I am out and about regularly in my electorate, and one of the many areas of concern that is raised with me relates to traffic congestion. The federal government has funded $50 million for Dorset Road, Croydon, to receive significant upgrades between Hull Road and Maroondah Highway, including road widening, reconfigured turning lanes, the removal of open drains and the reconstruction of footpaths. As well as Dorset Road, the federal government also secured $44.5 million for a major upgrade to Canterbury Road, which includes a third outbound lane along Canterbury Road to Montrose Road and a third inbound lane between Liverpool Road and Dorset Road. This funding has been available since 2016 and we are still waiting to see progress. The state government are responsible for the scoping, planning and timing on both major projects, so I would like to again ask: when will the minister get these much-needed Croydon road upgrades delivered?
