This Saturday is the Queensland state election, an important election for the Queensland economic recovery for the next four years. We want a government with a plan to boost the economy and create more jobs. Labor announced on Wednesday that they'll build a second highway—I don't know what happened to the first highway. The federal government has already committed $10 billion. Can you explain the route? Can you explain the grand plan? When will work commence? We are continuing to invest in the inland road network. This supports the safe movement of freight and people along these routes. Before voting on Saturday, I urge all Queenslanders to think: Will it affect my community? Will they be robbing Peter to pay Paul? Queenslanders need the answers to these questions, and we need them now.
