I thank Hon Ed
Dermer for some notice of his question and for designating the number of
the question. I thank him very much for that.
Main Roads Western Australia advises —
(1) No.
(2) Following
a preliminary review by Main Roads, it has been determined that direct access
between the railway station and the hospital does not involve Main Roads
assets; therefore, any in-depth investigation would need to be undertaken by
the relevant asset owner. If the member could clarify the exact nature of the
access concerned, this would assist in identifying the relevant asset owner.
Main Roads is happy to provide technical advice in this matter.
(3) Not applicable.
