This Petition of the residents of Queensland draws to the attention of the house the dangerous situation existing at the intersection of the Atherton-Herberton Road and Wongabel Road. In particular, the lack of clear vision for vehicular traffic attempting to turn from Wongabel Road on to the Atherton-Herberton Road to travel toward Atherton. This creates a highly dangerous situation. Your petitioners therefore request the house to ensure this intersection is upgraded to a safe standard by constructing a passing lane as a matter of urgency to meet its duty of care obligations.
