Box Hill electorate

 Paul HAMER (Box Hill) (14:56): (1350) My question is to the Minister for Transport Infrastructure, and I ask: when will the new Heyington Avenue pedestrian bridge be open? The Heyington Avenue bridge is a really important link in our community. It links the communities of Mont Albert North to the community of Doncaster. There is a primary school in Doncaster which a lot of students from Mont Albert North attend. There is also Koonung Secondary College – a lot of students from Doncaster cross the bridge to get to that school and to access parks and the Koonung Creek Trail. It is a really important link. I was privileged to go out with the minister and visit the site a few weeks ago and see that there has been tremendous progress on this bridge, and I am really hoping to see it open very soon. I look forward to the minister’s response.
