Constituency questions

Northern Metropolitan Region


Mr ONDARCHIE

Northern Metropolitan Region

 Mr ONDARCHIE (Northern Metropolitan) (12:59): My constituency question is to the Minister for Transport Infrastructure. It concerns stage 2 of the Plenty Road upgrade and the five extra traffic lights that will be installed between South Morang and Mernda. Part of that is in my electorate of Northern Metropolitan Region. Minister, the recent works on Dalton Road in Thomastown and Epping left many motorists angry at raised speed humps at intersections with traffic lights. I have raised that issue here in the past. These added traffic lights will bring a total of 13 traffic light intersections between McDonalds Road and Bridge Inn Road. As these works are about to begin, could you advise me, so I can advise my constituents: will there be any raised intersections or speed humps on any of the new or current intersections on Plenty Road between McDonalds Road, South Morang, and Bridge Inn Road in Mernda?
