10 PETITIONS
10.1 PETITION REGARDING INSTALLATION OF SPEED HUMPS ON SWALLOWCLIFFE ROAD DAVOREN PARK Contact Person: Maggie Dowling
On 31 May 2016, Council received a petition from the Hon Jon Gee MP, Member for Napier, on behalf of head petitioner Mr. Harold Le-Dan. The petition is in relation to speeding vehicles and excessive noise along Swallowcliffe Road, Davoren Park and the petition has 57 signatures. The petition requests that Council take action in this regard and install speed humps on Swallowcliffe Road to enforce safety. Background
Swallowcliffe Road is a 400 metre long section of two–way road that extends between Easton Road and Peachey Road. The road generally features a mix of commercial, educational and residential land uses. Administration have previously received similar complaints about speeding along Swallowcliffe Road and as a result has determined that further investigation is required and that it is appropriate to undertake a traffic count survey. Traffic counters will be installed over coming months to gauge the traffic volumes and speeds currently being experienced along Swallowcliffe Road. The data collected will then be used to determine if any traffic calming treatments are warranted. It is Administration’s intention to contact the head petitioner and advise as detailed above.
