Grafton Area of Major Change SPD 2017

Representation ID: 32017

Received: 05/11/2017

Respondent: Mx Valerie Cornish

Representation Summary:

Enhancing Burleigh Street and helping to make it a more attractive, vibrant space is welcome.
A cycling contraflow is a great mistake. It is currently, and will continue to be dangerous for pedestrians. The artists impression is not realistic and is hazardous. People are reluctant to use spaces with small children with cyclists. Many cyclists use their cycling as part of their fitness regimes and are inconsiderate in shared spaces.
There needs to be a separate cycle route to cross the Grafton Centre.
