Kilmore-Wallan bypass

Ms RYAN: Speaking of roads, today’s budget offered Labor its eighth opportunity to match the commitment previously made on this side of the house to build the Kilmore-Wallan bypass. Labor has again pushed back the land acquisition process for that project. The government has delayed, delayed, delayed, fabricating excuse after excuse. It is now six years since funding was first put in the budget to acquire the land—six years to acquire some land for a bypass. It is a complete joke.
