Greenhill Road, Cleland

Mr TEAGUE (Heysen) (14:32): My question is to the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport. Will the minister take any action to accelerate any necessary works to restore any normal traffic flow to Greenhill Road at Cleland? With you leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain.

Leave granted.

Mr TEAGUE: In June 2023, a traffic barrier on Greenhill Road at Cleland was damaged by particularly bad weather at that time. Vehicles have subsequently been reduced to a single lane of traffic, one-way traffic, and regulated by traffic lights at each end. On 2 November 2023, the department advised my constituent, noting that the fire danger season is upon us and that, and I quote:

Currently working on a structural design prior to remedial works with anticipated final completion by the end of June 2024.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Energy and Mining) (14:33): I thank the member for raising this important issue with me. I will chase it up personally after question time. I agree that is not acceptable if it is impeding traffic that way as we head into bushfire season, but I do not know the circumstances around why there is a delay. I will endeavour to get to the bottom of it asap because, when issues like that come up, it's important that members not assume that the minister's office is aware of it, which is why we have parliament and question time, and correspondence with ministers, so thank you for raising it with me. I will chase it up for you immediately.
