Constituency questions

Northern Victoria Region


Northern Victoria Region

Wendy LOVELL (Northern Victoria) (13:00): (336) My question is for the Minister for Roads and Road Safety – another sitting week and another question to the minister regarding the disgraceful condition of many roads in my electorate. McLennan Street, Mooroopna, forms part of the A300 Midland Highway. The road surface between Joseph Street and Echuca Road is appalling and a hazard for road users. Large potholes litter this 750-metre stretch of roadway, which is subject to a very large volume of vehicles each day. Similarly, River Road on the Mooroopna side of Murchison forms part of the C369 thoroughfare, the surface of which has been described to me by constituents as an accident waiting to happen. Of particular concern is the section of the road located at Billy’s Bend 2 kilometres north-east of the Murchison-Tatura Road. Will the minister order the immediate repair of the surfaces of McLennan Street, Mooroopna; between Joseph Street and Echuca Road; and River Road, Murchison, near Billy’s Bend to ensure the safety of those that use these roads?
