Martha HAYLETT (Ripon) (13:12):
It has been a busy fortnight of getting things done in the Ripon electorate.
Last week I had the pleasure of officially opening the $2 million redevelopment of the iconic Maryborough railway station. The transformed 1890s building now includes an expanded visitor centre and cafe, co-working spaces, artist studios, a sculpture garden, parking for caravans and accessible paths, and it is all thanks to the Allan Labor government.
I want to thank the CEO of Djaara Rodney Carter, Central Goldfields Shire Council and the amazing team at Barpa, who got this project done. It is spectacular, and it has breathed new life into the train station.
