House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Blackwood Roundabout Blackwood Roundabout Mr DULUK House of Assembly Davenport Blackwood Roundabout Mr DULUK (Davenport) (15:10): Supplementary, and there are so many questions we could take from that: can the minister advise how much his government will be investing to upgrade the Blackwood roundabout in this year's state budget? The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN House of Assembly Lee Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Minister for Housing and Urban Development Blackwood Roundabout The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (15:10): Of course, we would hold any such announcements about the road network for budget day. What I can say, in addition to my comments in response to the previous question, is that not only was the Treasurer put in the position where he had no choice but to substantially increase road maintenance funding in South Australia—because of the withdrawal of effort from both the state and local government that federal government funding was making—but we spend in the order of $126 million a year on road maintenance and periodic roadworks. Whether we need to continue listening to the strong advocacy of people like the member for Waite and the member for Fisher for fixing up roads in that part of the southern suburbs, or whether there might be opportunities to fix up roads in other parts of the southern suburbs, we will just have to wait and see.
