(a)-(d) Planning and development work continues on the Morrison Road Level Crossing Removal project.
Details of funding profiles can be found in the State Budget papers.
I note the Opposition’s inconsistent position on the removal of level crossings, having previously called level crossing removals on the Armadale Line a ‘vanity project’.
