The Punt Road Acquisition Overlay has been in place for over 60 years to reserve land for the purpose of widening Punt Road to become a 6 lane highway cutting through our community. We know this is poor planning.

Widening Punt Road would be:

• Expensive – $500 million estimated cost
  
• Destructive – 130 properties bulldozed including homes and heritage buildings 
• Pointless – 65% increase in traffic with only negligible improvement in travel times

Join Sam and community members as we talk to local residents in the Punt Road area about the Greens position on Punt Road and about the new 24 hour clearways on Saturday 27 August. Meet in Sam Hibbins office. All training provided.

It’s time the state government removed the Punt Road Acquisition Overlay and protected our local community from an expensive, destructive and pointless road widening!
