Members Statements- M80 ring-road noise barriers

Mr  J. BULL (Sunbury) — We are a government that gets on with it. Before the election we promised $10 million to build noise barriers at Gowanbrae and Glenroy along the M80 ring-road. For a long time residents had called on the government to help reduce noise levels, improve recreational areas and create a quieter suburb. On Monday I joined my friend the fantastic hardworking member for Pascoe Vale to inspect the brand-new noise walls. I would like to thank all residents who provided invaluable feedback on this project as well as the construction, design and communications staff who made it possible whilst working through a very chilly winter. We promised to deliver this project. That is exactly what we have done.
