North-Eastern Metropolitan Region
Aiv PUGLIELLI (North-Eastern Metropolitan) (12:44): (367) My question today is to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, and it relates to the opportunity to improve cycling and walking connections in Croydon as part of the Level Crossing Removal Project. Minister, there is an important link for the principal bicycle network and for people who walk or ride their bike in Croydon that could be connected during the level crossing works around Ringwood East and Croydon. The yet-to-be built shared path at Yarraduct Place could be joined with the shared path on the north side of the train line near Moralla Avenue, Croydon. To join these two routes, access across the train line will need to be built, and given there will be train line closures as part of the Level Crossing Removal Project, it would be the perfect time to also construct this connection. Minister, will you include this important cycling and walking connection as part of the Level Crossing Removal Project in Croydon and surrounding areas?
