 Anthony CARBINES (Ivanhoe – Leader of the House, Minister for Police, Minister for Community Safety, Minister for Victims, Minister for Racing) (09:59): I would also like to add that the Ruthven Street, Macleod, level crossing is going to go, and early works are underway. There will be a rail bridge over the road there at Ruthven Street. The early works will start in Macleod very soon. In the morning peak those boom gates are down for half an hour as 28 trains roll through that intersection. It needs to go – it is dangerous, it holds up the traffic – and the new connections for cycling and active transport are going to be great across Macleod.
