 Kim WELLS (Rowville) (14:44): (1602) My question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. When will the minister and the Department of Transport and Planning undertake a formal safety review of the dangerous intersections at Joelson Avenue and Stud Road, and Evans Street and Stud Road, in Scoresby? Rowville electorate constituents have contacted my office with serious safety concerns regarding these busy local feeder road intersections that provide entry and exit to Scoresby Secondary College from Stud Road. These concerns have only heightened following the tragic fatality of an 11-year-old girl last October at the nearby High Street Road and Wallace Road intersection, which I raised in the house in November last year. My constituents do not want to see another local tragedy. We urgently seek a formal safety review of these intersections, specifically requesting consideration of traffic signals, a road safety audit and a specific clear zone at Joelson Avenue to allow motorists to exit safely onto Stud Road.
