County Road North – National Avenue crossing safety problems

John Fareham and John Abbott are working to resolve problems with the safety of children  crossing County Road North and National Avenue.

John Fareham says, "John and I have both been receiving separate representations from local residents regarding the lack of continuity in crossing patrol provision on County Road North and the lack of any provision at the County Road North-National Avenue junction – this when there is a crossing patrol provided in tandem with the traffic island and push-button crossings at Bricknell Avenue. We have therefore referred the matter to the officers who will be carrying out a survey to confirm levels of demand for a crossing patrol at the junction. It goes without saying that John and I will continue to pursue this matter until we secure an appropriate outcome.”
