TO: The Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly of Queensland

Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House we the undersigned request the attention of the Parliament to the vehicle congestion on Waterford-Tamborine Road resulting from increasing urbanisation around Logan Village, particularly the rapid development of Yarrabillba where over 5,000 of the expected 50,000 residents are now living in this Priority Development Area.

 

We are very concerned that road works planned for Waterford-Tamborine Road between Anzac Avenue and Hotz Road, won't address the current congestion along Waterford-Tamborine Road through and north of Logan Village, particularly as the population in this region continues to grow.

 

Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to call on the Minister for Main Roads to:

  • urgently prepare an overall plan with Logan City Council and community consultation, to reduce vehicle congestion on Waterford-Tamborine Road through the township of Logan Village; then
  • progressively implement this overall plan to reduce current and future vehicle congestion as traffic volumes grow, to ensure the safety of pedestrians, cyclists and motorists in Logan Village.
