During the last month I have been delighted to be out and about in our local community and attending some great events.  From hosting another successful Seniors Forum, to catching up with the lovely ladies of the Oaklands VIEW Club at Parliament House and seeing off three very determined (but now very sore) blokes who rode to the MCG in order to raise money for the Pancare Australia.  

As works progress at Oaklands Crossing, the Project Team is starting to gear up for the second traffic switch in early October.  Following completion of the October Long Weekend works, traffic will be diverted to the western side of the road, so construction can begin on the eastern side of the bridge. 

As most of you would know, things have been busy lately as the Government handed down the 2018 budget.  It was always going to be a tough job, but I am pleased to say we have delivered a budget which is focused on delivering more jobs, lower costs and better services to South Australians. 

There was also good news for our local community, with funds being allocated for a variety of services and upgrades in Gibson and neighbouring electorates.
