 Ryan BATCHELOR (Southern Metropolitan) (12:46): (2262) My question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. How is the Allan Labor government maintaining key roads in the Southern Metropolitan Region? Residents in the City of Bayside are set to see some significant improvements from roadworks and resurfacing that have just commenced along Hampton Street between Beach Road and Ludstone Street, including outside of Hampton Primary School, which is also getting a new gymnasium, new classrooms and a new performing arts centre thanks to the Allan Labor government. 1.2 kilometres of road along Hampton Street is being resurfaced. It is a busy road, with shops, restaurants, a train station and school drop-off and pick-up. The night works are underway, and they will continue over the next few days between 7 pm and 5 am to minimise disruption to local traders and residents. It is all part of the Victorian government’s better roads blitz, which is happening right across Victoria.
