I refer to Budget Paper No. 2 which lists funding for “South Coast Highway – Kojaneerup and Shannon” totalling $25 million across the forward estimates, previously publicised as $50 million, and I ask:
(a) What specific sections of South Coast Highway are included within the “Kojaneerup and Shannon” project area;
(b) Does the reference to “Shannon” refer to Shannon Road, Shannon National Park, the locality of Shannon, or another location;
(c) How much funding has been allocated to works east of Albany between Cheyne Road and Kojaneerup;
(d) How much funding has been allocated to works west of Walpole or within the Shannon area;
(e) Have the project scope or locations changed from the previously identified “Cheyne Road to Kojaneerup” road safety upgrades referred to in earlier budget papers; and
(f) Will the Minister table a map or project scope document identifying the exact locations proposed to be upgraded under this allocation?
