House of Assembly Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Infrastructure Investment Program Infrastructure Investment Program The Hon. V.A. TARZIA House of Assembly Hartley Infrastructure Investment Program The Hon. V.A. TARZIA (Hartley) (15:11): My question is to the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport. Will the intersection of Atlantis Drive and The Grove Way be upgraded and, if so, when? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain. Leave granted. The Hon. V.A. TARZIA House of Assembly Hartley The Hon. V.A. TARZIA: This upgrade was an election commitment. We are approaching two years since the last election and the intersection is yet to be upgraded. On 28 February we learned the news of a tragic fatal crash at this dangerous intersection. The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Minister for Energy and Mining The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Energy and Mining) (15:11): It is a dangerous intersection and yes, it will be upgraded, and it will be upgraded relatively soon. We made this an election commitment, which saw the former local member defeated and a new member elected. This was in no small part due to her advocacy about local roads and the lack of care and concern in relation to that previously. I thank the member for raising this important question because it is important that we do acknowledge that there are some very dangerous intersections that need to be upgraded. We are doing our bit. The state government is spending a record amount of money on infrastructure over the next four years. It is unprecedented in its size and scope. Whether it is the north-south corridor, the Women's and Children's Hospital or upgrades to local intersections, the state government is doing what it can to make sure that we get it right. Detailed planning is underway, and I look forward to the beginning and completion of this very important project.
