Federation Corner

Mr GRIFFITHS (Goyder) (14:36): My question is to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure. Why did the minister refuse to support the proposal that I and the mayors of four local councils presented to him 12 months ago for a south-heading slip lane to be included in the Federation Corner redesign and instead opt to use traffic lights at the roundabout?

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (14:36): In summary, I think it was because we assessed the suggestion as being unnecessary and unsafe.
