 Rachel WESTAWAY (Prahran) (18:20): (1472) My constituency question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. When will the government deliver urgent proper remedial work to Williams Road and Dandenong Road so that the Prahran community can have the safe, reliable roads they deserve? I have been contacted by a growing number of constituents across Prahran who are deeply concerned about the worsening condition of our local roads, particularly along Williams Road and Dandenong Road, major arterials into and out of Melbourne. Residents describe large and dangerous potholes, uneven surfaces and crumbling sections of road that are not only causing repeated damage to vehicles but also creating serious safety hazards for motorists, cyclists and pedestrians. These are major arterial roads used every day by thousands of people, including families, workers and emergency vehicles. Despite repeated reports and temporary patch-ups, the underlying problems remain and conditions continue to deteriorate, causing dangerous conditions for everyone.
