ACT Opposition Leader Zed Seselja and ACT Shadow Urban Services Minister Alistair Coe announced recently that if elected a liberal government would invest an additional $1 million over four years into the ACT’s street sweeping program.
Mr Seselja explained that the $1 million over four years so that Canberra’s street sweeping program could:

• Lease a sixth street sweeping truck
• Allow local communities to ask for their neighbourhood to be swept
• Publish an accurate schedule for street sweeping
• Sweep intersections more frequently (especially after accidents)
• Sweep bicycle paths.

“This is above and beyond our previously announced $3 million for city improvements such as new footpaths, $1 million for the maintenance and upkeep of our public spaces, and $1 million extra for mowing around Canberra,” Mr Seselja commented.
