Eildon electorate
Ms McLEISH (Eildon) (11:44): (15 029) My constituency question is directed to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. The minister will be familiar with the beautiful section of the Maroondah Highway between Healesville and Narbethong known as the Black Spur. I would like to know when the white lines both on the sides of the road and in the middle of the road were last painted. As you can appreciate, this section of road poses a number of risks to motorists as it is steep and winding. Motorists rely on the white lines to assist with driving safely, especially in foggy or misty conditions, which are not uncommon on this road. I have been informed that currently the white lines in some sections of the road have good clarity and others do not; I drove this road recently to confirm this. I understand that this section of road has two different VicRoads regions involved, so that might complicate things a little. Those VicRoads regions change in line with the change to council boundaries. It might complicate it a little, but it should still be sortable.
