Council, along with Ratio Consultants, have developed a draft Traffic Management Strategy for the township of Queenscliff.
The project is being undertaken in response to a range of community feedback relating to vehicle speeds, traffic volumes and road safety.
A Traffic Management Strategy is a process of identifying existing transport and road safety issues, and developing recommendations to improve the safety, amenity and access within a defined study area.
The development of the Queenscliff Traffic Management Strategy (QTMS) included a range of data collection, on-site observations, engagement with key stakeholders, and data analysis. Several issues and opportunities have been identified and a prioritised implementation plan has been developed within the QTMS.
Ratio Consultants undertook the following activities in the development of the QTMS:
- Background review, including previous community engagement and feedback.
- Traffic surveys and other data collection
- Review of Department of Transport's (DTP) Movement and Place framework
- Review and incorporate the findings of the Active Transport Strategy
This draft version of the Queenscliff Traffic Management Strategy is being placed on public exhibition for a period of 28 days. Council invites submissions on the draft which can be received by either emailing [email protected] or by calling (03) 5258 1377.
