Road crossing, Jan Juc

This petition draws the attention of the House to call on the Victorian Government to the considerable safety issue of crossing the Great Ocean Road in the vicinity of Strathmore Drive, Jan Juc for students at local schools and members of the Torquay and Jan Juc Communities. Crossing the Great Ocean Road in any capacity near Christian College Geelong Surf Coast Campus for students at this school, the early learning centre, and other nearby schools, even with parental supervision is not a safe enterprise. In addition, there are no accessible pathways to provide pedestrian or bike access to the east, west or south of this area. It is of considerable concern that an accident or fatality – will occur. The petitioners therefore request the State Government to develop immediate engineering options for safe passage via a crossing and pathway infrastructure at this site.
