Ms McLEISH (Eildon) (09:35): The residents of the Upper Yarra are dismayed at the state of the Warburton Highway. They tell me that they have never seen it in such bad condition. I drive it regularly—most recently last week—so I know what they mean. They want to know what works are planned to fix it and when they will occur. The Goulburn Valley and Maroondah highways are both in deplorable condition. The road between Yea and Mansfield is plagued with potholes, crumbling surfaces and shoulders, and uneven camber. Repair work and resurfacing are inferior and do not last. I implore the Minister for Roads and Road Safety to take action to ensure urgent repairs are made.
