Petitions

Following petition presented to house by Clerk:

Dalton–Settlement roads, Thomastown

This petition of residents in Victoria draws to the attention of the Legislative Assembly that we, the undersigned, request that the Dalton Rd and Settlement Rd roundabout intersection in Thomastown be replaced with a set of traffic lights. This roundabout is used by thousands of motorists each week, and numerous near-miss accidents occur on a daily basis. This roundabout is one of the busiest and most congested in the area because it handles all the traffic exiting and entering the M80. A set of traffic lights will help improve road safety at this intersection as well as traffic flow off the M80.

The petitioners therefore request that the Legislative Assembly of Victoria make the removal of the Dalton Rd and Settlement Rd roundabout a top priority and replace it with a set of traffic lights.

By Ms HALFPENNY (Thomastown) (279 signatures).

Tabled.

Ordered that petition be considered next day on motion of Ms HALFPENNY (Thomastown).
