 Josh BULL (Sunbury) (15:52): In other great news, I am delighted that the frame for the massive two-storey pavilion at Diggers Rest reserve has arrived – I know the member for Footscray will be very excited about that – and is being put up as we speak, a joint project of course by this government and the City of Melton. We are also getting on with our massive construction blitz of Sunbury Road as we get on and we upgrade that important arterial road within my community. It is a massive project delivering new lanes, shared user paths and improved safety. Right across our state, as Parliamentary Secretary for Level Crossing Removals, I was also delighted to see that our 68th level crossing has been removed at Mount Derrimut Road. Just over nine weeks have ticked over since the massive construction blitz began to remove the dangerous and congested level crossings at Union and Mont Albert roads, building a brand-new Union station and a 1.3-kilometre rail trench as we get on and remove these dangerous and congested level crossings. Only the Andrews Labor government is getting on and getting it done.
