I received a response on 3 July 2007 advising that a full report would be forwarded. I am yet to receive anything further. As a parent of young children I have long been concerned about the speed with which vehicles travel along the Promenade and each of the avenues. It is inevtiable that someone will eventually be killed or seriously injured unless action is taken.

I was flabbergasted when I saw a completely unecessary roundabout recently built nearby, in a location that has in fact caused increased danger. There are many children in this area and a tragic accident is an inevitability if something is not done soon.

Someone is going to get seriously injured or killed because of the speed of some drivers using these streets!!!!

]]> Tue, 4 Aug 2009 01:35:10 UTC 5996027 Mrs Emma Lawlor [Signature #35] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5994678?utm_medium=rss The Promenade is used as a rat-run between Stanley and Creek Roads, and is getting increasingly dangerous. Cars come down the hill at huge speeds, and I think it is only a matter of time before there is a really serious accident. There are lots of children in this area and the speeding cars worry me enormously. Something needs to be done. Apart from the bad accident last week, I have witnessed countless near accidents on our corner.

As a mother with a young child, I was extremely disturbed to see the car accident last week. My child often plays with her neighbours, sticking to the footpath however it's frightening to think that the impact of the accident saw a wheel fly off one of the cars into somebody's yard. I dread to think about the 'what if's' had children been on or near the footpaths that day.

" Where was my compassions?? Luckily no ones was hurt, and maybe next time the drivers will drive a little more carefully. This street is a fatal accident waiting to happen - these drivers need to have a little more respect and care for their neighbours.

I am sick of hearing or seeing cars flying up the street. I creates a dangerous, noisy, unpleasant environment and quite frankly makes me really angry.

]]> Sat, 1 Aug 2009 04:34:43 UTC 5981866 Mr David Proctor [Signature #30] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5981227?utm_medium=rss Sat, 1 Aug 2009 12:24:12 UTC 5981227 Miss Annelise Proctor [Signature #29] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5981224?utm_medium=rss Sat, 1 Aug 2009 12:23:26 UTC 5981224 Mr Jeremy Proctor [Signature #28] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5981223?utm_medium=rss Sat, 1 Aug 2009 12:22:48 UTC 5981223 Mrs Jenni Proctor [Signature #27] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5981219?utm_medium=rss Sat, 1 Aug 2009 12:21:39 UTC 5981219 Ms Maree Griffiths [Signature #26] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5980144?utm_medium=rss Traffic calming measures have been put in on the other side of Stanley Rd - along Kennington Rd and other streets. I used to live on Kennington and the speed bumps have made a huge difference to the speed cars traveled. I cannot believe that there are no plans to put traffic calming on this side of Stanley Rd - does someone have to be killed first?

]]> Fri, 31 Jul 2009 05:29:05 UTC 5980144 Mr Robert Gunner [Signature #25] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5976639?utm_medium=rss As a resident of The Promenade for over 40 years. I strongly object to Traffic Calming of any kind. The round-about like all traffic calming gives drivers, residents and pedestrians a false senses of saftey. The accident round-a-bout is poorly designed and often road users don't understand how to use a round-about. The old Give Way sign worked better and was safer. If speeding is a problem then it is a policing issue. I would rather the council spend money on arterial roads and public transport.

]]> Fri, 31 Jul 2009 05:24:07 UTC 5976639 Mr Scott Watts [Signature #24] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5975088?utm_medium=rss I live near the round-about. I own a large CC motorcycle, and also a high proformance car.
A stop sign and REASONABLE speed bumps (similar to the streets otherside of stanley) through out the neighbourhood would be enough. The intersection in question is way to small for a raised roundabout, thats why people cut it as it is.
Their are drop kicks that use these streets as race tracks, and unfortunatly, me being 21, and male, i get labelled with the same stick

I am not a hoon, I am an enthusiest

The roads aren't safe. With the park nearby there are a lot of families walking and crossing the roads. It's only a matter of time until someone gets injured or killed.

Let's fix this BEFORE that happens.

]]> Thu, 30 Jul 2009 07:00:20 UTC 5974219 Mrs Rochelle Little [Signature #22] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5969797?utm_medium=rss I walk my dog every afternoon along the Promenade and agree that the speed in which vehicles are using this street and the roundabout is extreme and it is only a matter of time before there is a fatality.
I live in Melbourne Avenue and I feel tha it is only a matter of time before we have a serious accident in this street also with cars exceeding the speed limit. With many parked cars it means there is quite often only enough room for one way very dangerous.

]]> Thu, 30 Jul 2009 01:11:40 UTC 5969797 Ms Margaret Mitchell [Signature #21] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5969658?utm_medium=rss I support the petition for calming measures. There are now bikes travelling at high speeds on weekends along the promenade and a few hoons but overall too many speed along there and at nights the lights are insufficient for motorists to see people on the road, crossing etc., on way home from work.

]]> Thu, 30 Jul 2009 12:23:14 UTC 5969658 Mrs Kerry Hurling [Signature #20] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5968709?utm_medium=rss I live on the straight part of The Promenade between the two inclines. On many occassions I have almost been wiped out trying to back out of my driveway. The number of vehicles using The Promenade as a through road been Stanley Street and Creek Road plus the excessive speeding has esculated over the last few years. It won't be long before someone is maimed or even worse killed. Do we have to wait until this happens before the council will do something to eliminate the problem.

]]> Wed, 29 Jul 2009 06:51:20 UTC 5968709 Ms Terri Hillenberg [Signature #19] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5968705?utm_medium=rss The speed and number of cars that are travelling up The Promenade has increased considerably over the passed several years. Cars seem to "feel the need" to accelerate faster when approaching from Nurstead Street. Those accelerating are cutting the corner and making it dangerous for oncoming traffice.

]]> Wed, 29 Jul 2009 06:49:58 UTC 5968705 Ms Julie Maunder [Signature #18] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5968019?utm_medium=rss Wed, 29 Jul 2009 03:49:23 UTC 5968019 Ms Anonymous [Signature #17] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5964464?utm_medium=rss The amount of times I have nearly been hit by people speeding along The Promenade is dreadful. There are a number of repeat offenders (including the white ford focus that was perhaps in the recent incident) and there will be a fatality soon.

]]> Wed, 29 Jul 2009 03:44:45 UTC 5964464 Miss Jennifer Batten [Signature #16] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5964364?utm_medium=rss I walk to and from School most days. The streets are very busy, and cars are always speeding. I find it more dangerous crossing Sydney ave and The Prominarde than Stanley Road. Please make it safer for everyone.

]]> Wed, 29 Jul 2009 03:23:30 UTC 5964364 Ms Maria Batten [Signature #15] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5964353?utm_medium=rss The most idiotic irresponsible thing Ive seen in the last week was a motorcyclist overtaking two cars along Sydney ave just before entering the roundabout. Hearing hoons all hours of the day is the norm now. Not the safest of neighbourhoods I have lived in. FIx it before you have a fatility on your Conscience.

]]> Wed, 29 Jul 2009 03:18:59 UTC 5964353 Ms Marie Bailey [Signature #14] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5964182?utm_medium=rss My house is next to the roundabout and everyday hoons come speeding over and arount the corner. This was an accident waiting to happen. As I write this I can hear another car flying across the roundabout. I am surprised that no one was killed as I witnessed the ute crashing into the tree in my front yard. Speed humps would help. A raised roundabout would be more appropriate. I just thank god there was no one walking out the front when this happened.

]]> Wed, 29 Jul 2009 02:34:59 UTC 5964182 Ms Elizabeth Reid [Signature #13] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5964108?utm_medium=rss Many people in the local area get out and about and walk, run and ride bikes. When I go for a walk I'm acutely aware of cars hooning up the Promenade and surrounding streets. Traffic calming will make the area much safer for recreation as well as for residents.

]]> Wed, 29 Jul 2009 01:58:02 UTC 5964026 Mr Scott Mellon [Signature #10] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5963962?utm_medium=rss I am tied of the worry these idiots cause me with 2 young children. If it was not for the tree on the foot path which the car hit it would have ended up in the children's current play area. I have lived here for 11 years and since the car lunching round about has been put in have started to look at moving, as it has become a hoons right of passage to see how far they can put there car in the air. Please remove it or make it so that they must slow down.

]]> Wed, 29 Jul 2009 01:41:22 UTC 5963962 Mrs Anonymous [Signature #9] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5963678?utm_medium=rss Cars fly over the 'roundabout' at the Sydney Ave/Promenade intersection. Make it so you can't drive over it at least. I fully support traffic calming measures in Sydney Ave and The Promenade. It is urgently needed.

]]> Tue, 28 Jul 2009 11:57:38 UTC 5963678 Mr Ben Reid [Signature #8] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5963672?utm_medium=rss This is a great iniative as the number of vehicles including high performance cars and high CC motor bikes speeding through our streets has increased. I have witnessed on many occasions vehicles not slowing down in fact having total disregard for intersections and round abouts making these areas very unsafe for other motorists and pedestrians. Further their noise pollution as they accelerate to speed up hills is just another reason why we need traffic calming at Camp Hill. Lets act now!

]]> Tue, 28 Jul 2009 11:55:23 UTC 5963672 Mr Danny McGrath [Signature #7] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5963660?utm_medium=rss I regularly walk my daughter in a pram in this area and must be extra cautious at the corner of Sydney Avenue and The Promenade as vehicles regularly come down the hill well in excess of 60kmh.

]]> Tue, 28 Jul 2009 11:50:45 UTC 5963660 Mrs Melika Davies [Signature #6] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5962298?utm_medium=rss This street is a shortcut to Creek Road. Traffic has always been a concern and increasingly so over the last couple of years, most vehicles come down the hill at great speeds to the roundabout at sydney avenue. As we are located at the bottom of that hill we see first hand how fast they travel. We've thought it was only a matter of time when one of these vehicles lost control and hit something. I'm extremely concerned.

]]> Tue, 28 Jul 2009 05:13:02 UTC 5962298 Mr Matt Casson [Signature #5] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5962260?utm_medium=rss Enough is Enough!
When will council listen to the concerns of the local residents in Camp Hill. The promenade has become short cut with drivers disregarding speed limits constantly. Someone is going to get killed! We need speed humps and speed limiting alterations on this road. Just count how many times the signs on the round about have needed to be replaced!

Will Cr Shayne Sutton take full responsibility when something goes tragically. Its TIME FOR ACTION and NOT EXCUSES!

]]> Tue, 28 Jul 2009 05:06:07 UTC 5962260 Mr Tony Williams [Signature #4] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5958622?utm_medium=rss I have lived on The Promenade since March and have regularly heard several cars accelerating down the hill and across the roundabout without slowing. It is only a matter of time before there is a fatality if something is not done.

]]> Tue, 28 Jul 2009 05:00:00 UTC 5958622 Ms Jacqueline FitzGerald [Signature #3] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5958596?utm_medium=rss At a minimum the roundabout at the corner of Sydney Avenue and The Promenade needs a raised section so that cars don't travel across the top at speed. Hoons frequently speed along this street, which is heavily populated with young families.

]]> Tue, 28 Jul 2009 04:53:29 UTC 5958596 Mr Clinton Halket [Signature #2] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5957670?utm_medium=rss I think the photos say it all..

]]> Tue, 28 Jul 2009 01:56:53 UTC 5957670 Ms Jennifer LeSauvage [Signature #1] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/5957635?utm_medium=rss There is not a day that goes by where I do not hear a car roar down that hill right over the top of the round-about. I have seen many near misses, a dog killed & heard numerous smashes. This morning came the loud bang we all wait for when we hear cars screech sideways over that roundabout. One car collected another. I am thankful that no-one was badly injured and only because neither my husband nor anyone else happened to be walking their dog in that usually popular spot at that exact time.
