Hotham Road Update

John highlighted the problems on Hotham Road in earlier post. I met the officers on site last week and discussed a number of possible solutions for this road. We have agreed to some new markings to make it easier for residents turning out of the tenfoots onto Hotham Road itself and we are going to look at imposing a weight limit on the street.

The carriageway surface is a disgrace and this will also be inspected shortly. If we get another chunk of highways budget given to the ward members as we did last year, this will certainly be one of the streets we consider resurfacing. Last year we intervened with that money to resurface National Avenue to a much higher noise reducing standard than was being proposed.

Yet again, proof that we simply get on with working hard for you.
