Greens transport spokesperson Samantha Dunn says building a new toll road and widening the Monash Freeway again will create more congestion.
“Building new toll roads and widening existing freeways will create more traffic and worsen congestion,” Samantha Dunn said.
“The Monash has grown wider and wider over decades, but anyone who drives on it regularly knows traffic and congestion is getting worse and worse.
“A rail line to Rowville would take an entire lane of traffic off the Monash Freeway. The State Government needs to abandon its toll road fantasy and get serious about mass transit,” she said.
