Northern Victoria Region
Wendy LOVELL (Northern Victoria) (12:59): (1783) My question is for the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. Will the government install temporary traffic lights at the Willaroy Boulevard–Donnybrook Road intersection to allow residents exiting Donnybrae estate to safely join Donnybrook Road? Donnybrook Road is a single-lane road that is notoriously busy and permanently congested, and residents of the Donnybrae estate who want to turn right from Willaroy Boulevard to head towards the Hume Freeway find it very difficult to do so safely, especially during heavy morning traffic. Residents of the Donnybrae estate have started a petition calling for the Victorian government to install temporary traffic lights at the exit of the estate onto Donnybrook Road. I strongly support this call from the residents and urge the minister for roads to immediately implement this safe and practical temporary solution, because the Labor government has no plan to properly fix Donnybrook Road any time soon.
