Wyndham ring-road
Dylan WIGHT (Tarneit) (10:02): The Allan Labor government, in conjunction with the Albanese Labor government, will build the Wyndham ring-road. This transformative project promises substantial improvements for families in my electorate of Tarneit and indeed the electorate of Werribee as well. Key aspects of this project include the expansion of the Ison Road overpass and the Main Road interchange, crucial upgrades to intersections that link Tarneit, Wyndham Vale and Manor Lakes, and perhaps most importantly, the construction of a new bridge over the Werribee River. The Wyndham ring-road will connect Hobbs Road in Wyndham Vale directly to Sayers Road in Tarneit, facilitating smoother travel and accessibility for residents in my electorate. This is a fantastic development for our community, representing a leap forward in our ongoing efforts to improve local infrastructure and quality of life for every resident of Tarneit.
The Wyndham ring-road is going to be an absolute game changer in my area as it will not only create a better-connected community but also help bust congestion on our local roads. Having an alternate connection to the freeway means we reduce demand on Ballan Road, Heaths Road and through central Wyndham. These projects are part of the Albanese Labor government’s $1 billion road blitz, matching the existing near-billion-dollar road blitz campaign by the Allan Labor government, who have since added an additional $200 million. I am incredibly proud to be part of a government that is listening to our local communities and building better-connected and safer roads.
