The petition of residents of the State of Queensland draws to the attention of the House the dangerous situation at the entry and exit to the Shell service station located at 59 Currumbin Creek Road. When vehicles are parked outside the service station the view of oncoming traffic is obstructed completely putting the safety of drivers, cyclists and pedestrians at risk. Since construction of the Stewart Road interchange commenced traffic flow has escalated enormously, increasing the likelihood of a serious accident and the risk of loss of human life. The petitioners request the House urgently implement a no standing zone along the north side of Currumbin Creek Road to make entering and exiting the service station a less dangerous proposition.
