Constituency questions

Western Metropolitan Region


Western Metropolitan Region

Mr FINN (Western Metropolitan) (14:04): (1766) My constituency question is to the Minister for Public Transport. I recently visited Wyndham Harbour and was most impressed by the work done there and perhaps more importantly the enormous potential this development shows for the west. If you have not been there—if members have not been there—can I suggest that you travel down there, down Duncans Road, and have a look at it, because it really is worthwhile. Do yourself a favour, as Molly would have said. Particularly in the warmer months Wyndham Harbour has much to offer locals and visitors alike. It is very much a part of the new west. The problem is the lack of public transport servicing Wyndham Harbour. Both residents and those who would like to visit are begging for better access to the area. The lack of public transport now is just not good enough. Minister, what plans do you have to make Wyndham Harbour accessible for those who currently have difficulty getting there without a motor vehicle? More buses are needed and a major improvement in the timetable of Wyndham Harbour is necessary, and it is necessary now.
