This month we had the pleasure of hosting Joanne Ryan MP Federal Member for Lalor and Chief Government Whip’s mobile office in our area.
Residents came out to discuss issue that were of concern be it transport, safety, sustainability, just to name a few.
The issue I raised was regarding transportation. With a fast-growing population, traffic has become a nightmare, especially the commute to work and there are some delays when using public transport. I was given updates on the current upgrades coming to my area in the next year to two.
As a person living, in the area I felt heard, there was even a follow up email with contact details of someone I could continue my conversation with. It is important for residents to feel heard especially by their local and federal representatives.
