Constituency questions

Benambra electorate


Benambra electorate

Mr TILLEY (Benambra) (14:49): (6364) My constituency question is to the minister for transport, and the information I seek is to determine whether any of the money allocated in budget paper 3 for reliable and people-focused transport services is designed for Wodonga and creating a bus route for Killara. Earlier this year I asked the minister about the issue, and the response was, to paraphrase his words, it was all going to be all right. In the state budget there is no mention of Killara, and this is a community of 2000 people who have a bus shelter but no bus. School buses do not stop there because they are full. When parents ring the education department, the department tells them to get their kids to catch public transport. The only problem with this is there is no public transport.
