$500,000 FOR LIGHTING AND CCTV INFRASTRUCTURE IN MURRAY BRIDGE

An elected Dutton Liberal Government will provide $500,000 from a revitalised Safer Communities Fund (SCF) to install and upgrade lighting and CCTV infrastructure throughout the Sturt Reserve Precinct in the regional city of Murray Bridge. 

Liberal Member for Barker, Tony Pasin, said this funding would help ensure people in the local Murray Bridge and Murraylands community feel safe as they go about their daily lives.

"This funding is a direct response to the concerns raised by our community. I’ve heard firsthand from Murraylands residents that safety is a priority, and we’re responding with practical measures to help make public spaces safer for everyone,” Mr Pasin said.

“This vital investment will create a safer environment for the community and visitors to our region. The installation of new, and upgrades to existing, lighting and CCTV infrastructure will help keep our communities and families safe.”

Shadow Minister for Home Affairs and Cyber Security, Senator James Paterson, said under a Dutton Liberal Government, the Murraylands community in Barker will be stronger, more secure, and better supported to tackle crime.

“Getting Australia back on track means keeping Australia safe – safe for families, safe for businesses, and safe for communities,” Senator Paterson said.  

"Projects delivered under the Safer Communities Fund will help protect local communities by ensuring they have appropriate security infrastructure in place such as CCTV cameras, alarm systems and security lighting."

This commitment is part of the Liberals’ plan to strengthen our local communities and get Australia back on track.
