The ask

Ask every candidate in Werribee, Tarneit, Point Cook, Laverton and Lara to commit, in writing, to the projects that matter to you.

Recording your view is not open yet, because doing so means collecting a political opinion and we are still settling the legal footing for that. Here is what that means and when it opens. In the meantime, contacting your own representative carries more weight than a tally anyway.

What is going on

Council launched this campaign in June 2026, built around four investment packages covering roads and transport, rail, sport and recreation, community facilities, health and heritage. Its framing is blunt: rapid population growth is outpacing infrastructure investment, producing more congestion, longer waits for services and less time with family.

We track the 16 asks as projects on this site so you can see which have money behind them and which are still only requests. No cost figures appear on the campaign page itself, so where we show a cost it comes from a budget paper or a council report, dated and linked.

What the campaign does not do is record who commits to what. That is the gap we intend to fill before 28 November 2026.
