Look after life jackets A FREE clinic to help teach boaters how to maintain their life jackets is coming to Patterson Lakes. Transport Safety Victoria’s FloatSafe program pilot began last month. MSV recreational boating safety manager Gareth Johnson said “if you’ve fallen into the water unexpectedly and you get yourself in trouble, having a life jacket that doesn’t inflate isn’t much good to you.” “If you own an inflatable lifejacket in Victoria, you should be performing regular checks to make sure it is going to work when you need it. This program is about familiarising boaters with their lifejackets so that they can conduct these checks effectively.” FloatSafe attendees also receive a $30 voucher from a local retailer for a new lifejacket, ser-
with Brodie Cowburn
vice kit, or other safety equipment. The clinic runs at Patterson Lakes on 17 February at 4pm, 5pm, 6pm, 7pm. Book at wearalifejacket.transportsafety.vic. gov.au/floatsafe

Intersection reopens WORKS on the intersection at Wells Road and Thames Promenade have finished early. The intersection shut on 2 January to allow for the demolition of the roundabout. Lights have been installed and cars are now back on the road. Major Road Projects Victoria says that “while the road was closed, we removed more than 4800 square metres of materials to remove the roundabout and widen the road, laid 2650 tonnes

of material for the base of the new intersection, placed 5000 tonnes of asphalt, installed new public lighting, and switched on the traffic lights.” “Now that we’ve built the new intersection, we’ll close the southbound exit ramp at Thames Promenade that was temporarily open during the closure. We’ll complete the finishing touches while we build the northbound entry ramp and open them permanently in late 2021.”
