Sunbury electorate infrastructure

Josh BULL (Sunbury) (11:10): I am absolutely delighted that this government is getting on with our commitment to building the Sunbury multideck car park. Major construction of this outstanding project will begin on 20 June. This is a critical and important project for my community and for the Sunbury town centre. It is a partnership between local, state and federal governments. What it will do is of course provide more parking for shoppers, for traders and for commuters. This is a project that we have been planning for quite some time now, and it is a critically important project to make sure that the Sunbury town centre continues to grow, to thrive and to develop.

Speaking of thriving and developing, I am delighted of course that we are making significant progress with the Sunbury Road duplication project. This is about a safer, less congested major arterial road. We are adding additional lanes, a shared user path, signalised intersections and a whole lot more to improve safety and ensure that we are able to get the local community home safer and sooner. It builds upon this government’s strong and proud record of delivery in schools, community facilities and sporting precincts as well. We will continue, as we have always done, to get on and get things done.
