Reason for this Petition
The following residents of the ACT draw to the attention of the Assembly the ongoing traffic issues in Spofforth Street, Holt. The installation of speed humps has moved traffic from Spofforth Street into neighbouring streets which has caused serious safety concerns.
Your petitioners, therefore, request the Assembly to call on the Government to (1) remove all the speed humps in Spofforth Street, (2) allow traffic to resume its normal flow and appropriately police the streets, (3) after at least 12 months, assess the traffic, and (4) then, and only then, consider what measures might be appropriate to manage traffic flow.
