Vincentia Matters held its first public meeting on November 7, 2018 and tirelessly lobbied for the works for the next two years. Ms Tooley said the flyover will deliver exactly that the community has asked for. "The congestion has been one thing but the safety is another and this is finally going to deliver a safe intersection and that's the priority."
