Kim O’KEEFFE (Shepparton) (14:54): (558) My question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety. Minister, what is being done to improve safety at the Kialla West Primary School pedestrian crossing? Five years ago a horrific accident occurred at the crossing, causing serious injuries to a family and a student of the school. This crossing is on a major highway and a thoroughfare with a high volume of trucks navigating local traffic daily. Twenty-five per cent of the state’s trucks are registered in the Shepparton region, and that number continues to grow. Kialla is a growing precinct with new housing developments, which has increased traffic volume. I have serious safety concerns at this school crossing.
