 Cindy McLEISH (Eildon) (09:46): It was no surprise to locals to see the Melba Highway topping the list of Victoria’s worst roads in the Herald Sun on the weekend. But whilst the Melba Highway is finally getting a little bit of attention, there are plenty more dodgy highways and major roads in my electorate that need repairing. These include: the Warburton Highway, Whittlesea-Yea Road, Healesville-Koo Wee Rup Road, Eltham-Yarra Glen Road, Marysville Road and roads in and around Eildon township. Our roads need more than temporary pothole fixes and hazard signs; they need real and lasting repairs, including resurfacing and drainage before it is too late.
