Reason for this Petition

The following residents of the ACT draw the attention of the Assembly to the abysmal state of traffic flow in the Gungahlin town centre.

Gungahlin is one of the fastest growing areas in the ACT yet the roads are insufficient to safely and effectively manage the number of cars that travel in and out of this area.

Requested Actions

Your petitioners, therefore, request the Assembly to call upon the ACT Government to:
- Conduct a study which looks at road safety and traffic flow within the Gungahlin town centre bounded by The Valley Avenue, Manning Clark Crescent, Horse Park Drive and Gundaroo Drive and recommend changes.
- Release the study in full to the Assembly once it is complete.
- Release any previous studies on roads and traffic flow issues in the same area.
