Legislative Council Fifty-Second Parliament, First Session (52-1) 52 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Prospect Road Speed Limits PROSPECT ROAD SPEED LIMITS The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS Legislative Council PROSPECT ROAD SPEED LIMITS The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (14:47): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking a question of the Minister for Industrial Relations, representing the Minister for Road Safety, in relation to Prospect Road. Leave granted. The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS Legislative Council The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS: Recently, the speed limit along the full length of Prospect Road has been reduced from 60 km/h to 50 km/h. I understand that the Department for Transport, Energy and Infrastructure made this move following representations from the City of Prospect and particularly the mayor of that city, Mr David O'Loughlin, seeking the reduction in that local government area. However, I am unaware of any campaign for the remainder of Prospect Road to be included in the speed limit reduction. My questions are: 1.	Will the minister indicate whether DTEI approached the Port Adelaide Enfield council seeking a common speed for Prospect Road once 50 km/h had been approved for the Prospect council area? 2.	Will the minister consider the restoration of the section of Prospect Road situated in the Port Adelaide Enfield council to a 60 km/h zone? 3.	Will the minister provide the details of other arterial roads in metropolitan Adelaide that have been identified by DTEI for reduction to 50 km/h? 4.	Is it accurate that DTEI is actively pursuing a 50 km/h limit across arterial roads throughout the Lefevre Peninsula? The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY Legislative Council Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for State/Local Government Relations The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (14:49): I thank the honourable member for his important question. I will refer these questions to the Minister for Road Safety and, for DTEI, the Hon. Pat Conlon from another place and seek to get an answer back to him as— The Hon. J.S.L. Dawkins Legislative Council The Hon. J.S.L. Dawkins: I think it's Tom Kenyon actually. The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY Legislative Council The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY: You talked about DTEI, too, didn't you? The Hon. J.S.L. Dawkins Legislative Council The Hon. J.S.L. Dawkins: I was talking about speed limits. The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY Legislative Council The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY: But you did talk about DTEI. You mentioned DTEI about 17 times, so I will ensure that Mr Conlon, if he needs to have an input, will get back to you. Members interjecting: The President Legislative Council The PRESIDENT: Order! I inform the house I have not been wrong since 1949.
