GREAT
EASTERN HIGHWAY — WIDENING
164. Hon KEN TRAVERS to the
parliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Transport:
I refer to question without notice 140 regarding widening and
improvements to Great Eastern Highway.
(1) What is
the state government's funding contribution to this road project and in
which years will the funding be provided?
(2) Why was this
project not included in the 2013–14 midyear review?
(3) When will
work commence on this project?
(4) When is work
expected to be completed on this project?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for some notice of this
question.
(1) The
Liberal–National state government will provide $24.9 million for this
important regional road project in 2013–14.
(2) Funding for
this project was confirmed after the federal government's midyear
economic outlook, making it outside the state government's midyear
review time frame.
(3) Mid-2014.
(4) Mid-2015.
