Constituency questions

Brunswick electorate


Brunswick electorate

Tim READ (Brunswick) (14:49): (731) My constituency question is for the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. More people ride to work, school and uni from Brunswick than from any other part of Australia, and many people want to ride along Sydney Road, which is unsafe. There is a growing community in my electorate wishing for a rebuild and revitalisation of Sydney Road, including accessible tram stops, separated bike lanes and wider footpaths, all of which were proposed by the minister’s department about five years ago. I would like an update from the minister on when this might happen. Oh, no, an update – I will rephrase it, Speaker.

The SPEAKER: You have 18 seconds to ask a question.

Tim READ: Will the government commit to rebuilding Sydney Road?
