Letter to the editor | Highways to foodbowl drowning in rubbish

The entire Hume Hwy from Melbourne to Seymour and the Goulburn Valley Hwy from Seymour to Shepparton is an absolute disgrace for a first world country with all sorts of rubbish, including hundreds of tyres strewn along the entire length of freeways.

No rubbish has been picked up for a least two years.

Also, why for example is the Calder Hwy cleaner than our highways? Answer: government management of the Hume region don’t see it as an issue.

Why do we have to wade through a sea of rubbish to get to Australia’s foodbowl?
