Constituency questions
Bulleen electorate
Mr GUY (Bulleen) (11:40): (2012) My constituency question is for the Minister for Roads. The Applewood retirement community is one of the largest in Manningham. It is home to hundreds of residents. Located on Tram Road, Doncaster, it borders the Koonung Creek Reserve and the Eastern Freeway. Applewood needs a safer entry point into the community. It needs a signalised entry and exit approach. The federal government has put a million dollars on the table to achieve this. The only party missing from the funding discussion appears to be the state government. I ask the minister: when will matching state funding be committed for the signalisation of this intersection to make the entry and exit points for Applewood retirement community safer for every resident?
