Constituency questions

South-Eastern Metropolitan Region


South-Eastern Metropolitan Region

David LIMBRICK (South-Eastern Metropolitan) (12:53): (601) My constituency question is for the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. A constituent recently sent me a photograph of their experience driving on the new Narre Warren–Cranbourne road underpass beneath the Pakenham train line near Princes Highway. The photograph showed many cars at a standstill attempting to merge into a single lane on this otherwise three-lane road. The reason for this was an excessive amount of flooding on the left side of the road. One brave soul had attempted to aquaplane straight through the freshly formed pond only to end their valiant charge with hazard lights and a flooded engine. My question is this: what is the minister doing to address the regular flooding occurring here in the aftermath of the Big Build level crossing removal?
