‘NEPEAN HIGHWAY NOISE BARRIERS.’.

Mr NEWBURY (Brighton) (10:11):

The Brighton East community continue to have their needs ignored.

Despite abutting the Nepean Highway, the aged noise barrier fence is collapsing, and the Labor government will not replace it.

Residents in Roseberry Avenue have spent months being given the runaround.

One resident recently said:

        The absence of the noise barrier fence has led to frequent trespassing,
        which poses a security concern for my household. Additionally, the
        increased noise and dust have become significant.
