advises as at 15 March 2010:
(a) 2005 = 20 crashes
2006 = 28
2007 = 24
2008 = 33
2009 = 20
Data for 2010 and 2011 is not yet available.
(b) No recorded fatalities in the period August - December 2009.
(c) Nil
It is noted that despite the number of crashes being relatively consistent with the 2009 figure, the previous Labor Government took no action to address any safety concerns raised by local residents.
Frank Alban MLA, the Member for Swan Hills recently raised his concerns about this intersection with me and I will be investigating the information he presented. I look forward to working with a passionate local representative dedicated to Road Safety to address this issue that the previous Labor Government neglected.
