[Greens-Media] Brimbank U-Turn on Tunnels

[Elizabeth.Ingham at parliament.vic.gov.au]

Greens MLC Colleen Hartland has congratulated the community, following 
Brimbank Council's sudden decision to oppose the proposed new road 
tunnels.

"If Brimbank council has finally figured it out, there's hope for the 
State Government yet", said Colleen Hartland.

 "The community has been very vocal at the public meetings attended by 
myself and Cr Miles Dymott.”

"It’s quite clear that without the community campaign, Brimbank council 
would not have changed their minds.”

"Councils across the affected areas in the western suburbs are now clearly 
saying that they don’t support the road tunnels.”

"The new road plans are incredibly unpopular in the western suburbs.”

"I have more public information meetings planned on the roads and tunnels 
issue.  I have a meeting arranged for the Sth Kingsville / Spotswood area 
on Monday 1 September*, and another in the Caroline Springs / Deer Park 
area on 18 September**,” said Ms Hartland.

* Monday 1 September, 7.30pm, Sth Kingsville Community Centre, 43 Paxton 
Street Sth Kingsville
** Thursday 18 September, 7.30pm, Sassella Park Hall, 121 Station Road 
Deer Park
