Fix Porters Lane traffic and parking issues

The silence from the planning offices is heavy lately. I am still digging through the old accident reports to prove why these lane changes will backfire for everyone who drives here.

Seeing this much momentum behind the campaign is exhausting yet incredibly validating. It is clear that I am not the only one who sees the flaw in this road project, and that realization keeps me going when the process feels stagnant.

Roadworks might be complete But the traffic still speeds . And what about the residents who now have to enter and leave driveways with much greater risk and leas safety? roadworks might be over but the total problem has not been fixed . lDebate is not over .
Why not try a solution that would address all the issues in one go? Roundabouts, reduces speed, create easy turning into side streets and do not create traffic gridlocks. One lane on Fullers rd means chaos to anyone who uses this road and especially to the residents around it.
Well clearly it has already. Both ways all day and on the Pacific Hwy southbound (wanting to turn right). Entry or crossing Fullers Rd is much more difficult now there is constant traffic flow. I would hate to be an L or P plate driver on anydriver who lacks confidence trying to enter or cross that road.
Clearly now that the changes have been in place for a couple of months your contention that traffic confession won't increase had not played out. There is now congestion in both directions plus on the Pacific Hwy southbound almost constantly during the day. That said, I don't believe that traffic lights alleviate the problem either. Perhaps restoring the double lane and installing speed humps/traffic calmers would reduce the speed but get the traffic moving again.

I'm pleased to say I have not heard a single screech of tyres or rear ender smash at Park Avenue since. This particular change is a BIG success.
I don't see how these changes have made it more dangerous to leave your driveway. If anything I would have thought the large painted medium strips would have made it easier/safer. Please explain

As new (ie 8 weeks) residents in Davies St, my wife and I are rapt in the change. We've both been almost cleaned-up by inattentive following drivers as we've waited to turn right into our street. The turning bays are a great safety idea. Well done RMS. Ian McDonald
