Review and Immediately Reverse Decision to install Torquay Roadblocks


Review and Immediately Reverse Decision to install Torquay Roadblocks
The Issue
The petitioners whose names, addresses and signatures appear hereunder, petition the Surf Coast Shire Council and Councillors to immediately:
1. Review the Traffic Management plan Quay & Quay 2 prior to and/or immediately after the next scheduled Council meeting;
2. Roadblocks to be removed and consideration to reinstall roadblocks is not made until an updated traffic management assessment is completed along with the consideration of all other traffic safety measures to be implemented before roadblocks are reinstalled (for example, temporary speed bumps); and
3. Initiate community consultation before proceeding with any further decisions to impose unreasonable restrictions on Quay 2 residents, pursuant to the Council's own Community Engagement Policy document SCS-017 and in accordance with the Local Government Act principles and objectives.
The signatories are extremely concerned this unreasonable intervention in the freedom of movement is a breach of the Road Management Regulations and Local Government Act which require immediate attention.
NOTE: Please include your name, address and signature when signing the petition, to ensure the petition conforms to requirements and is accepted by Council.
