PUBLIC WORKS COMMITTEE: EVANSTON LAND RELEASE—MAIN NORTH AND TIVER ROAD INTERSECTION

Mr ODENWALDER (Little Para) (11:32): I move:

That the 455th report of the committee, entitled Evanston Land Release—Main North and Tiver Road Intersection, be noted.

The Urban Renewal Authority will upgrade and signalise the intersection at Main North Road and Tiver Road, Evanston, which is within its Evanston land release. The estimated cost of $13.7 million includes additional expenditure of $9.2 million and a contribution from adjoining landowners of $4.5 million. The aim of the work is to deliver the upgrade and signalisation at that intersection and to enable the urban development of that locality in accordance with the 30-year plan. The project is expected to be complete in 2013. Given this, and pursuant to section 12C of the Parliamentary Committees Act 1991, the Public Works Committee reports to parliament that it recommends the proposed public works.

Mr PENGILLY (Finniss) (11:33): The opposition supports the project. End of story.

Motion carried.
