Adjournment
Frankston train station car parking
Frankston train station car parking
Paul EDBROOKE (Frankston) (17:36): (306) I rise to ask the Minister for Public Transport to come and visit the Frankston commuter car park project site. Frankston has been evolving for a number of years now, and visitors to Frankston will step from the train station – the brand new, bespoke train station – onto a brand new Young Street, looking at a brand new redeveloped TAFE, stages 1 and 2. And soon, this summer, when they get off that train with their surfboards or anything that they need for the beach, they will be confronted with a brand new car park, a 500-space free car park for commuters in Frankston. We have taken into account what we heard during the community consultation, and that was: CCTV, access for all abilities and bike parking facilities as well. The project is getting off the ground as we speak. There will be excavators on scene, I think it is next week, and I know my community would look forward to the Minister for Public Transport coming down for a visit.
