Little
Flinders St. is not a designated thoroughfare, and
shouldn’t be used at drop-off and pick-up times.
The laneway cannot cope with the increased
traffic flow in such a
narrow space.
Parent use is causing issues with traffic flow
on Parade West,
due to congestion at the Parade West intersection.
Turning onto Parade West from this location is
difficult as there is reduced visibility with cars, buses etc. This is why we
haven’t been able to formally consider it as an option to improve traffic flow.
We have been informed parents using this access
are
inconveniencing residents who need access.
The extra traffic is putting pedestrians at risk
with people having to walk around cars, both in Little Flinders St and at the
intersection.
Cars are speeding down the laneway. A number of
properties/gates open directly onto this road without the buffer of a sidewalk.
There have been a couple of near misses.
Thank you in anticipation for your
support of this request.
