As residents of Donnybrook, VIC, Australia, we are faced with an alarming issue. The lack of public transportation facilities and pedestrian infrastructure has made it extremely dangerous to walk to the train station and nearly impossible to get anywhere without a car. This is not just an inconvenience; it's a threat to our safety.

The absence of a bus stop in the Donnybrae estate forces us to rely heavily on personal vehicles for commuting. This not only contributes significantly towards environmental pollution but also increases traffic congestion on our roads.

Moreover, the lack of footpaths along Donnybrook road makes walking perilous, especially for children and elderly citizens who are at greater risk due to speeding vehicles. According to Australian Bureau of Statistics data from 2016, approximately 15% of our population is aged 65 or over - these individuals deserve safe access too.

We believe that implementing these changes will greatly improve the quality of life for all residents by providing safer routes for pedestrians and better public transportation options. We urge local authorities in Victoria State Government Department Of Transport Infrastructure (DTI) to take immediate action by installing a bus stop in the Donnybrae estate and constructing footpaths along Donnybrook road leading up to the train station.
