Tarneit electorate

Dylan WIGHT (Tarneit) (14:53): (1109) My question is to the Minister for Transport Infrastructure. How will recent investments in road infrastructure in the western suburbs impact my community of Tarneit? The Wyndham ring-road will be an absolute game changer for people in my community, easing congestion on busy local roads like Heaths Road and providing a much-needed alternative route for commuters. The upgrade will build a new bridge over the Werribee River to connect Wyndham Vale and Manor Lakes to Tarneit, upgrade the freeway interchange at Werribee Main Road and provide a direct link from Wyndham Vale and Manor Lakes to the Princes Freeway with the Ison Road link. These new and improved connections will make a real difference, cutting travel times and making it easier for residents to get to work, school and essential services. It has been fantastic to have strong support from our federal Labor colleagues, who have joined forces with the Allan Labor government to complete this project as part of our $1.2 billion road blitz.
