■ Local Parliamentarian Cindy McLeish has raised serious concerns about the pedestrian crossing precinct on the Maroondah Hwy in Healesville. Ms McLeish questioned what is being done by the State Government to combat pedestrian safety concerns at the intersection of Crowley, Lalors and Ayres Rds in Healesville. “This is a very busy section of road where cars, buses, pedestrians and school children interact,” Ms McLeish said. “I have been contacted by concerned parents who worry about their school children running across the busy road to the bus stop to catch the bus to and from school, which is during peak traffic time.” “Parents want to know their children are safe and protected by appropriate pedestrian crossing measures.” The closest designated pedestrian crossing is over one kilometre away from the intersection. Community members believe there should be safe passage for pedestrians to cross the threeway intersection to easily access the bus stop. Concerned local Healesville resident and parent, Eloise Wallace said, “We’d like to see either the bus stop relocated to make it easier for pedestrians to cross or drop the speed limit, install flashing pedestrian lights or ideally install a pedestrian crossing.”
