PREMIER Daniel Andrews’ decision not to proceed with the former Coalition Government’s visionary East West Link infrastructure project will see Victorians paying out over $800 million.
That money could have been used to pay for a new Royal Children’s Hospital, a new suburban railway line, 19 brand-new trains, 25 brand-new schools, a new police station, even a new ambulance station.
This will cost local workers jobs; it will increase business and living costs; it will likely see taxes rise to pay for the compensation and it will do nothing to reduce environmental pollution caused by cars stuck on congested roads.
Premier Andrews – stop throwing Victorian taxpayers’ money down the drain!
Christine Fyffe MP,
State Member for Evelyn.
