Nepean electorate
Sam GROTH (Nepean) (14:46): (5) Residents in Nepean have become increasingly affected by the dangerous and overcrowded Jetty Road intersection, which continues to be the site of countless accidents, both minor and major. During my campaign for election in 2022 I worked with the community to relentlessly prosecute the need for investment and improvement, including ensuring that the changing federal government reaffirmed its $75 million commitment to redeveloping the area. However, the state government has still not given my community a clear time line on when this project will be delivered. The Mornington Peninsula Freeway extension is a vital piece of major infrastructure for my community, ensuring safety and supporting the growing local and visitor population. My question is for the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure: what are the government’s plans – if any – for the Mornington Peninsula Freeway extension, and when will the project finally be delivered?
