Constituency questions

Northern Metropolitan Region

 Evan MULHOLLAND (Northern Metropolitan) (12:52): (2217) My constituency question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety, and it concerns the lack of adequate street lighting on Mickleham Road, between Attwood and Barrymore Road, in Greenvale. I have recently been contacted by a local constituent who informed me that the current lighting on this stretch of road is not sufficiently addressing issues related to the rapidly growing population, the increase in young drivers and overall congestion. My constituent also highlighted the growing number of kangaroos that are being maimed and killed along this stretch of road and questioned whether increased visibility, particularly as we enter the darker months, would improve the safety of our national icon. Will the minister please work with their department to investigate what can be done to improve safety and visibility on this stretch of road?
