| I could name the locations, but will show restraint. |
Every
second month the staff brief us on the happenings in our ward and we get to add
things to the list that we would like to see discussed. Works well except that
the one two months ago was cancelled rather than being postponed.
The
following might be of interest;
- The
poor state of the pavers on the bike path from KWR to Goodwood has been
examined by staff and they agreed it is need of repair. Unfortunately the
path is on DPTI land and we can let them know it needs fixing. Don't hold
your breath.
- Staff
agree to two additional 'flexible guide posts" in the road way (as
well as those on the raised area). Hopefully, this will keep turning cars
out of the bike lane.
- Millswood
bowls will be asked to forewarn residents when they intend to have fireworks
or a nosier than usual event. Lack of doing this has caused some concern
for residents nearby.
- Staff are presently preparing a business case
for the CEO and Council for the employment of an additional parking
inspector. This should enable better patrolling near Goodwood Oval during
games and training, and illegal parking near Clarence Park Station.
- A
yellow line will be painted to prevent parking of the first 50 metre
of Dryden Rd at the intersection with South Rd. This decision follows
observation by staff of a safety issue with cars parked on both sides of
the road.
- Some
traffic hazards still exist near Black Forest Primary School on the Forest
Ave intersection with Oban Ave. Minor works would see this intersection
safer. However, the school has failed to apply for additional funding.
Consultation with residents should occur soon.
- Survey
results for the Chelmsford Ave/ Victoria St parking issues will bring a recommendation
to Council this month for 3 hour parking restrictions in part of Victoria
St, Chelmsford Ave, Allenby Ave, Curzon Ave and Fairfax Ave. I believe
that Meredyth Ave should be included in this as displaced cars are sure to
look further afield to still be able to commute and catch the tram
