 Evan MULHOLLAND (Northern Metropolitan) (13:10): My constituency question is to the Minister for Public and Active Transport, and it concerns the lack of bus shelters across the north. Minister, my constituents were thrilled that thanks to my advocacy, after hundreds signed my petition, an absolute shocker of a bus stop – you could call it a patch of mud – on Somerton Road at Ravenhill Boulevard in Roxburgh Park finally has had some improvements made. This prompted many of my constituents to come forward with other suggestions. One in particular that constituents constantly raise with me is the bus stop on the corner of Hudson Circuit and Paringa Boulevard in Meadow Heights. They believe it should be indented. Drivers often are bypassing the bus blind into a roundabout, causing accidents and near misses. I ask the minister to investigate this particular bus stop, and I thank the minister for belatedly and finally acting on bus shelters on Somerton Road in Roxburgh Park, thanks to my advocacy.
