West Metro MP David Ettershank is disappointed that a $15 million state scheme to get polluting trucks off west Melbourne roads has been shut down, meaning it is more essential than ever to get filters fitted to the Westgate tunnel stacks.
David speaks in support of a new shipping container yard storage close to the Port of Melbourne, but urges the government to take concrete steps to reduce reliance on ad hoc container storage across the west.
David gives a statement about attending a protest against a mega freight terminal in the town of Little River. He raised community concerns around its location and potential ecological destruction if the project goes ahead.
