Grafton Area of Major Change SPD 2017

Representation ID: 32031

Received: 06/11/2017

Respondent: Heather Coleman

Representation Summary:

​Taxi​ ​movements​ ​along​ ​Fitzroy​ ​and​ ​Burleigh​ ​Streets,​ ​on​ ​top​ ​of proposed​ ​delivery​ ​movements,​ ​constitute​ ​a​ ​safety​ ​hazard​ ​for​ ​people​ ​walking​ ​and cycling. This is a ridiculous idea. Fewer motor vehicles should be using these streets, even outside "core hours" not more.

Respondent: Mr Martin Lucas-Smith

Representation Summary:

This proposal is not evidenced and should be removed entirely.

Completely inappropriate to allow taxi usage in this area.

I have never heard any statement of demand, and a previous attempt to provide a taxi rank on Fair Street failed due to lack of use.

Having car-like vehicles being driven through this area will encourage illegal use by non-taxis. The area should not be designed to facilitate this.

I speak as a taxi user who supports better provision for taxis overall.
