Constituency questions

Ovens Valley electorate


Ovens Valley electorate

Tim McCURDY (Ovens Valley) (14:40): (13) My question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. Minister, Moyhu Primary School is located on the very busy and very dangerous Wangaratta-Whitfield Road, which I have spoken about many times in this place. The speed limit is 100 kilometres an hour, except of course right at the school. The school is also located on the junction of Boggy Creek Road, and I am seeking the minister’s indulgence and advice as to how we can make this school safer – possibly a reduction of the speed limit or other options. On the last day of the 2022 school year an accident occurred that wrote off both cars, and recently a car travelling down Boggy Creek Road overshot the T-intersection and actually crashed into the school. Carole Breust is the business manager at the school and is desperate for support and changes to ensure a safer environment for the students and parents of this wonderful school, the Moyhu Primary School.
