Northern Victoria Region

Gaelle BROAD (Northern Victoria) (12:58): (1815) I received correspondence from a resident of Northern Victoria that I bring to the attention of the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. They wrote about a recent visit to South Australia:

Three weeks ago, a friend took me to S.A. for a brief holiday. The road conditions in S.A. in rural & city areas; was smooth to drive on & free of pot holes. Coming back into Vic. by comparison, the road conditions in rural areas, Melb. CBD, Calder freeway & Bendigo were rough & potholes in many places.

It’s just NOT good enough. Where is our money going? How is it being spent? The State Government is failing to listen, represent & be accountable to Victorians.

Minister, this letter reflects the sentiment of millions of Victorians. On behalf of all those in Northern Victoria asking the same questions, I look forward to the minister’s response.
