Thanks to those who’ve contacted me today about the traffic conditions this morning on the Centenary Bridge Upgrade and the new traffic signals on the Sinnamon Rd onramp at Jindalee.
I got stuck in this mornings traffic chaos too and I am just as frustrated and concerned as everyone else.
Obviously the increased commute time is unsustainable, so as a matter of priority, I've requested the project team and engineers address the issue immediately to ensure that the traffic flow is managed while also ensuring our motorists and workers are kept safe.
With the Centenary Bridge Upgrade now in major construction phase, the lights were recently installed to ensure greater safety for local motorists while heavy vehicles accessed the site.
Rest assured I am working on an urgent solution along with the Centenary Bridge Project Team and will update the community in due course. ... See MoreSee Less

Earlier this month, it was amazing to be able to go to New Zealand and see my granddad Murray and introduce him to my daughter Elyse. At 96 years young, Murray is doing well after losing his wife of 70 years, my nanna Margaret. Grandparents are such an amazing part of our lives, and I am so lucky at almost 40 years of age to still have Murray in my life. ... See MoreSee Less

In case you missed it. 🌏💚We've passed legislation to put our Green energy targets into law! I'm so proud our government's decision to legislate 80 percent renewable energy by 2035- I know it's something that the Mount Ommaney community is really passionate about- especially our young people.
That's a 75% reduction by 2035. More detail here…👇

There is something really special about hearing young students sing 'The Last ANZAC', as they did at Jindalee State School and Corinda State School this morning.
It's a poignant reminder that many of the soldiers in the past were little older than students themselves when they signed up for service and paid the ultimate sacrifice.
Thank you to all the schools that have organised a service to pay their respects.

Locals know my personal story of my journey to deal with adenomyosis, and I'm far from alone. Reproductive leave would allow everyone to deal with the reproductive challenges they face, whether it's getting a vasectomy, having a tubes tied or dealing with menstrual issues. I was thrilled to host the campaign launch on behalf of Together Queensland in parliament last week. Reproductive leave, It's for every body.👍🏼 ... See MoreSee Less

Legend and Queen for this adenomyosis is a rough journey and at times very underrated by others, thank you ❤️
