MS PATTEN (Northern Metropolitan) (14:38:45) — My constituency question is for the Minister for Public Transport. My constituent is a regular user of the Upfield bike path that runs along the Upfield train line, and he, like me, was pleased that the minister heeded the Reason Party’s call to extend the pathway 800 metres to link the Upfield path to the Western Ring Road bike path. However, my constituent in consultation with VicRoads on this project has been informed that it will not be completed, or even started, until the next financial year. So I ask on behalf of my constituent: given the modest costs involved in completing this project, will the minister act to ensure that it is completed this financial year?
