Bass electorate
Jordan CRUGNALE (Bass) (14:53): (853) My question is for the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. Earlier this week our government announced a $964 million road maintenance blitz to rebuild, repair and resurface roads across the state, a yearly program that comes about each spring. Minister, how will this benefit my roads in Bass? My community rely on their highways, interconnecting township roads and of course local streets every day. We also have heightened traffic every year over the school holidays, long weekends, major events and the summer season, when visitors join us to delight in our many offerings, including incredible beaches, walking trails, wineries, cultural events and our exquisite natural environment. Residents are noticing and reporting to me sections of road that need attention, including the section on the South Gippy highway around Clyde-Five Ways Road, the strip between Koo Wee Rup, Caldermeade and Lang Lang, and parts of the Bass Highway too. I look forward to hearing how this announcement will benefit my community.
