Sam Hibbins to ask the Minister for Transport Infrastructure —
Regarding the St Kilda Road bike lanes project, will the separated bike lanes extend to Carlisle Street as originally promised by the Government
Response from the Minister for Transport Infrastructure
I thank the Member for his question and note that he directed the same question to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety through Question on Notice 762.
The Victorian Government made a $30.5 million investment to build separated bike lanes along St Kilda Road – one of Melbourne’s most active cycling routes.
Sections of the new bike lanes from Linlithgow Avenue to Dorcas Street, and Toorak Road to Charnwood Road are now open, creating safer travel on St Kilda Road. Remaining works will continue until the Metro Tunnel Project is complete in 2025.
