A PETITION TO THE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY


PETITION

TO THE HONOURABLE THE SPEAKER AND MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY:

The petition of the undersigned citizens of Tasmania draws to the attention of the House
That the current traffic management control measures on the intersection of Marlborough and Wellington Streets (“Sticky Beaks corner”) in Longford are dangerous. Three car accidents have occurred at the intersection in the last twelve months that have resulted in structural damage to two surrounding heritage buildings as well as numerous other small accidents. It is a matter of time before there is a more serious accident at this intersection.

Your Petitioners therefore request that the Minister for Infrastructure immediately improve the intersection by introducing a safer traffic control management system.
