Bairnsdale road maintenance

Tim BULL (Gippsland East) (10:05): I also quickly want to raise the community angst at VicRoads’ decision to complete roadworks concurrently on the two entries into Bairnsdale. Incredibly this was federal money that was provided in 2019, and we have waited five years for these roadworks to take place. They could have been done non-concurrently so drivers could use the other access point into Bairnsdale. But they are now being done concurrently in the lead-up to Christmas, and it is going to be a disaster.
