South-Eastern Metropolitan Region

Rachel PAYNE (South-Eastern Metropolitan) (12:59): (1356) My constituency question is for the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. My constituent is a resident of Rowville. In January 2024 a road fatality devastated his community. In the aftermath my constituent joined other residents in calling for safety measures at the intersection of Wellington Road and Braeburn Parade in Rowville. Father of two Yunesh Naidu lost his life when a truck ran a red light at this intersection. Tragically, Mr Naidu is not the first to suffer this fate at this intersection. Locals know this area is dangerous and have spent years pleading for change, yet this government continues to ignore community concerns. So my constituent asks: will the minister commit to implementing speed and red-light cameras at this notorious intersection?
