 Alison MARCHANT (Bellarine) (14:45): (1517) My question is for the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. Minister, how is this government improving pedestrian safety across the Bellarine, specifically in Indented Head? I have been contacted by a number of constituents who are concerned about the safety and the access and especially the pedestrian crossings along The Esplanade in Indented Head. This is a busy stretch of road used daily by families, older residents and visitors accessing the foreshore and is particularly busy during peak holiday season, when the traffic increases significantly. People are required to be crossing at informal points without any clear markings, creating, very understandably, some safety concerns. I look forward to hearing from the minister so I can share with my constituents how this government will be supporting the Bellarine community to access their local roads safely with confidence.
