South-Eastern Metropolitan Region
Ann-Marie HERMANS (South-Eastern Metropolitan) (12:44): (138) My constituency question is to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure in the other place. I ask the minister to review the decision which the government has made to block the road at the intersection of Progress Street and Nathan Road in Dandenong South because the government considers it part of its program to remove ‘dangerous and congested level crossings’ on the Packenham and Cranbourne lines. This particular section of the road is not dangerous and not congested, and blocking this intersection will cause more hardship to local traders and create more traffic problems than this action seeks to resolve. Will the minister meet with me and local traders to review this decision?
