Street modification for a Safer and Quieter Guildford (WA)


Street modification for a Safer and Quieter Guildford (WA)
The issue
What we are trying to eradicate:
- Vehicles turning illegally from Johnson Street into Helena Street.
- Vehicles using Helena Street and Market Street as a short cut in both directions.
- Vehicles driving erratically, dangerously and illegally along Helena Street and Market Street.
What we are trying to achieve:
- Safer and quieter local roads for the community.
- Less congestion outside Guildford Primary School at peak times.
- A safer pick up and drop off area outside Guildford Primary School.
- Safer access in and out of Helena Street.
How we propose to achieve this:
- Block Helena St to the East of Ethel St to eliminate short cutting vehicles in both directions.
- Open the entrance to Helena Street to allow vehicles to enter, to eliminate illegal driving activity and allow greater access to Guildford Primary School for parents, staff and local traffic.
- Addition of a round about at the intersection of Helena St and Johnson St to provide far safer access (in and out) of Helena st.

Andrew DayPetition starterMy wife and I have lived in Market St, Guildford for 4 years. We have a 20 month old son and two beautiful dogs. We love the area but hate seeing it ruined by unsafe, antisocial drivers who like to use our local streets like race tracks.
