Victorian State Election

[Thryleon]

It's crown land and they have  had up to 11 rigs doing geotechnical work along the proposed route.  It's actually been well supervised, with truck movements monitored and noise restrictions etc. The lay down for the Hurstbridge track duplication was way worse,  pack of cowboys. Truckers were flogs.

The best route remains through Eltham, but the NIMBYs in that area can afford lawyers,  people in MacLeod, Watsonia and Rosanna can't.  It's gonna happen,  fact of life.

Proff i live in Greensborough and i agree that it would be better to go through lower plenty linking up with EarthLink at Springvale road, but I've been very interested and have seen the costing estimates.

They've gone with the cheapest option which ties into proposed eastern freeway upgrades.

I have been to as many of the consultations as possible and i think theyve used them as checkboxes rather than actual consultation.

Im not sure if any other option would be much different to be honest.
