OUR STRONG NATIONAL SPIRIT

Anzac Day Commemorations

For over a century Australians have served in conflicts and peacekeeping missions around the world, protecting values of freedom and democracy.

Our national spirit of remembrance has found a home on ANZAC Day which marks that brave and fateful moment in 1915, when 16,000 Australian troops landed at Gallipoli. That spirit was reinforced during the battles of subsequent conflicts such as World War II, the Korean and Vietnam wars.

This year marks the 50th Anniversary of the end of Australia’s involvement in the Vietnam War and the 70th anniversary of the end of the Korean War.

I had the pleasure of attending many Anzac Day services across the electorate and I would like to congratulate the organisers and volunteers involved. These events can't happen without their hard work.

New Local Roads

I am proud to have secured 80% of the $301 million upgrade of the MaroochydoreMons Rd Interchange on the Bruce Highway a few years ago. The project reached another key milestone recently, with the new eastern and western service roads opening to traffic at

Forest Glen and Chevallum respectively.

The practical benefit of these service roads is that motorists, pedestrians and cyclists no longer have to enter the Bruce Highway for local commutes around this area; getting people home sooner and safer.

Autumn Road Trip

I will be out and about across the electorate on my Autumn Road Trip during the week of 15 May 2023.

Come on down and chat to me about any local or federal issue.
