Published by Alex Makin on Thursday 17th of August, 2006
The Municipal Association of Victoria’s (MAV) Transport and Infrastructure Advisory Group consists of councillors and representatives from Victoria’s councils to gain an insight into the transport and infrastructure needs across Melbourne and Victoria.
Today’s meeting including a presentation from the Department of Infrastructure (DOI) on funding available for Local Area Access Programs and the latest incarnation of TravelSmart. The Local Area Access Program provides the opportunity for councils to request funding for infrastructure works that strengthen walking and community participation within a municipality.
During this meeting I raised the issues surrounding the lack of pedestrian guidelines during roadside construction works as mentioned during Maroondah’s Disability Forum. The MAV as the collective voice for local government in Victoria will pursue these issues further.
