Murray Plains electorate roads

Mr WALSH: The other issue I want to raise is the issue of country roads. My electorate has road after road after road with 80-k and 60-k speed limits on them because the government will not fix those roads. Every time I put up a social media post people come back with, ‘Well, that’s bad, but what about this one?’, and there are roads and there are roads. You can particularly look at the Prairie–Rochester Road, an A-double road that has narrow bitumen, the sides are breaking away and there are big potholes in it. If we going to have designated truck routes, let us make sure there is the money to fix those roads.
