SUBMISSION TO COUNCIL AND MEDIA COVERAGE

A quick update...

22 April my neighbour Andrew and I attended the QUEANBEYAN City Council’s monthly meeting.

Andrew being the good BLOKE that he is, prepared and presented a submission to Council outlining concerns of residents living on these streets.

During the presentation Andrew cited Government guidelines with regard to street design and traffic densities (AMCORD Design Element Recommendations).

Andrew quickly established that CJD and MORELLA both meet the AMCORD definition of a 50KMH street and that these roads are not designed to tolerate the near double recommended traffic volume or speeds (some approx 100KMH: REF QCC) that we currently experience.

ANDY thanks again!

I can’t upload WORD documents to this site, however if you wish to telephone me I will gladly email or fax a copy to you.

Andrew and I were subsequently interviewed by a QUEANBEYAN AGE reporter, she was present at the 22 April meeting and contacted Andy for comment.... see press clipping...

Cheers


Matt
