Laverton electorate road safety
Sarah CONNOLLY (Laverton) (19:20): (1098) My adjournment matter is for the Minister for Roads and Road Safety, and the action I seek is that the minister join me to visit my electorate of Laverton to speak with locals from Laverton about their road safety issues in our local community. It was just a month or so ago that I held the first of what I am calling listening tours, a series of tours across my electorate of Laverton, across the different suburbs, to talk to locals about the issues, the challenges and the opportunities and what matters to them locally.
I kicked off the first in this series of tours in Laverton, and I had about 40 awesome locals of all different backgrounds, all different ages, who, most importantly, lived in Laverton, from some who had lived there their entire lives to those that had moved in a couple of months ago. These folks and I came together at the Laverton Community Hub, and we just had a really open, honest and transparent conversation about what locals love about their community and also, most importantly, what they want to see improved in their local community. We had a lot of conversations about traffic on the local roads, and we also had a lot of conversations about the exit off the freeway and then the entry onto the freeway that goes through local streets in Laverton. Locals had some great ideas on how we can better improve access and also basically beautify these local streets despite the heavy traffic coming through them.
I really look forward to the minister visiting my electorate of Laverton and taking the time to speak with these awesome locals and also to come out and see firsthand what they would like improved on local roads in their community.
