While Labor are only focused on fighting each other, the Nationals and Liberals are in here fighting for the Victorians who want a change – who want a fresh start for Victoria. The first thing that people in regional Victoria want is to make sure they get a fair investment in our rural and regional…
Locals across the Wimmera and south-west Victoria will finally see much-needed road repairs under a Nationals and Liberals government, with an announcement this week to fix our roads and make them safe. The Nationals’ plan for better, safer roads includes a 25 per cent increase in maintenance funding and road repairs, bringing back engineers to…
The Nationals’ Member for Lowan, Emma Kealy, is calling on residents across the Wimmera and south-west Victoria to flood the RACV with feedback on the area’s worst roads. The RACV has launched its annual My Country Road survey to ask Victorians for their thoughts on the most dangerous country highways identified by RACV, or to nominate a regional road they believe…
My constituency question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety, and the information I seek is: when will the Western Highway be duplicated to Stawell and through to the South Australian border? This is a project which began back in 2013. Originally it was expected that the highway would be duplicated right through…
My question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety, and the information I seek is: when will the Western Highway be made safe? Whether it is the repairs that are required or whether it is the long-overdue duplication of the Western Highway, we continue to see the catastrophic impact of the delays of…
When the Premier was first appointed to that role in this state she proudly said she was from regional Victoria and would be a Premier for regional Victorians.

I would like to speak to the Public Accounts and Estimates Committee 2024–25 budget estimates report from October 2024, and I would like to specifically highlight today matters regarding the Department of Transport and Planning specifically related to the public and active transport portfolio. There are aspects within this report which reflect upon the regional…
The Allan Labor Government is not only continuing to roll out speed limit reductions instead of fixing our roads, but is now also failing to notify affected communities. Locals were outraged this week when signs appeared on the Ararat-Halls Gap Road between Moyston and Ararat reducing the speed limit from 100km/h to 80km/h, without any…
My question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety, and the information I seek is: when will the seriously degraded and dangerous roads in the Lowan electorate be fixed and made safe? I was recently sent photos of a gaping pothole that has opened up on the Donald-Murtoa Road between Minyip and the…
The Allan Labor Government has once again shown its complete disregard for rural and regional communities, with its roads minister seemingly in denial about the state of the Western Highway. The Nationals’ Member for Lowan, Emma Kealy, has made countless representations to the government regarding safety concerns with the highway, including community requests to lower…
