In a recent Geelong Advertiser article regarding the North Shore railway station a spokesperson for the Minister for Public Transport, Terry Mulder, stated that the state Labor government had failed to invest in Geelong’s northern suburbs train stations. I take this opportunity to correct the record. As many northern suburbs residents are aware, the previous state government had allocated $250 000 for the North Shore station renewal project, and it was in fact Terry Mulder who rescinded that funding after coming into office in 2010, stating that there were more important projects in the state. Clearly the minister and his advisors have no regard for Geelong’s northern suburbs.
