 Cindy McLEISH (Eildon) (09:40): It came as no surprise that the Greensborough Bypass and Diamond Creek Road roundabout topped the most dangerous intersections in the RACV’s 2025 My Melbourne Road campaign. It takes a bit of navigation and you need your wits around you as you navigate this big and complex roundabout, which carries a large volume of traffic which will only grow on the completion of the North East Link. Up there too are three notorious intersections in the Whittlesea shire which need prompt attention. Whittlesea LGA is growing so quickly infrastructure cannot keep up. I urge the government to work with Nillumbik and Whittlesea shires to address these intersections. In Thomastown the Dalton Road and Settlement Road roundabout and the intersection of High Street and Settlement Road need attention. In Epping it is the High Street and Rufus Street roundabout. The government needs to give local roads greater attention, because at the moment these important intersections are being ignored.
