He advised that they are taking up the whole street and often parking over his driveway and causing a hazard. They block the whole street and the view of others reversing out of their driveway. He has spoken to the people in luff motors but nothing has been resolved and they have basically brushed him off. He is becoming quite concerned and frustrated that luff motors are not willing to work with them to fix the issues they and many other residents in the street are having with the multiple cars taking up the road. XXXXXX has advised that these cars start from the corner and go right up the end of the street to Church Street. Can someone please give him a call.

Good morning Thank you for your enquiry I have arranged for this matter to be sent to the Feb 2019 Traffic Committee meeting for consideration The outcome of this consideration will be referred to the Feb 2019 Council meeting. We will advise you of the outcome after Council's meeting ie late February 2019
-----Original Message----- From: XXXXXXXXXX> Sent: Thursday, 3 January 2019 12:46 PM To: Yass Valley Council
Council,
Could you please instruct Luff motors not to park their cars in side (Brown St) of Coronation park.
Lately there have been so many cars, that no one can get a parking space near the park all because Luff motors have parked there private as well as the stock in front of Yass Car wash. Also unloading trucks, they keep on blocking the far side entry into the car wash, this blocks any entry or exiting onto Brown St coming from Shaw st.
Trucks need to stop unloading in the middle of the road, outside the car wash.
Staff Reports – Page 15 of 34 Traffic Facilities Committee Meeting 6 February 2019 Luff motors need to find some where else to park there cars, some where that will not affect free flowing traffic in Brown street.
An idea would be to put an 2 hour limit on parking & police it. I urge someone from council to have a look at the situation & looking at some ways to resolve the parking issue with Luff motors cars.
Regards

From: XXXXXXX Sent: Sunday, 27 January 2019 11:22 AM To: Terry Cooper
Terry,
Thank you for the late very late email, my original was written on 3rd Jan 2019.
Further to my email, yesterdays Australia day events at Coronation Park posed safety risks for us at the Car wash & next door neighbour.
As you see the attached photo's, there isn't a clear spot for people to turn into & exit the car wash from the far side.
With regards to the neighbours (Brown St side), if emergency services where need they couldn't get in, as there was cars parked in the driveway, even through there is a sign on the gate saying 'keep clear'.
Staff Reports – Page 17 of 34 Traffic Facilities Committee Meeting 6 February 2019
In events such as Australia day, there need to be 'controlled parking' & as a business we expect that entry & exit ways to be kept clear at all times.
Regards

Good afternoon
Thank you for your email. This matter will be referred to the February 2019 Traffic Committee Meeting for consideration.
We will advise you of the outcome of this at the end of February 2019 after Council has considered the Traffic Committee’s minutes
From: XXXXXXXX Sent: Tuesday, 11 December 2018 2:53 PM To: Yass Valley Council Subject: DANGEROUS INTERSECTION. ROSSI & WEEMILAH STREETS
I draw attention to what I and many others consider a dangerous intersection (Rossi & Weemilah Streets) Road markings are poor and misleading (my opinion) It is not clear that traffic going up the hill has to proceed in the left lane. Drivers keep to the right and proceed in the lane with a large arrow in it, which can result in a collision The left lane is for one car only and yet there are no parking restriction in regard to street parking. A parked vehicle would simply block the lane! This heavily trafficked area wants a traffic revamp and this should include much clearer road markings Rossi Street is a very heavily trafficked street and the traffic is increasing! Thank You

SUMMARY To report to the committee concerns raised by residents in relation to traffic safety in Read Road Sutton.
Recommendati on
RECOMMENDATION That the request for a safety improvements be discussed by the Committee
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS NIL AS A RESULT OF THIS REPORT POLICY & LEGISLATION Nil REPORT Council has received a number of requests from a residents in relation to traffic safety concerns in Read Road Sutton. See redacted emails attached The primary concerns relate to increasing traffic volumes in the general area and particularly vehicles entering Read Road.

From: xxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, 14 January 2019 12:24 PM To: Yass Valley Council
Good morning,
It has been more than 8 years since I last had correspondence with the YVC in regards to my concerns the potential for an accident and/or injuries to occur because of the fact that people ride and walk horses along Read Road. The email below is the YVC response at that time.
I seriously believe that it is time to raise the issue with the Council again for a number of reasons. Firstly, there has been a significant increase in the amount of traffic as a consequence of the growth of Canberra’s northern suburbs which are just a short distance from Read Road. Read Road has become a favourite road for Learner Drivers from Canberra and a lot of learner drivers use Read Road on the weekend, the same time that people are riding horses. Very few drivers slow down when they encounter horse riders.
There is also a lot of sightseeing occurring by people enjoying a drive in the country. It is also very worrying that the intersection of Read Road and Mulligans Flat Road is frequently (several times a week) used as a burnout site for idiots in their cars. Some of these idiots also use Read Road and Mulligans Flat Road to drive their cars at excessively high speeds.
Secondly, since Mulligans Flat has been sealed more and more people from Canberra are using Mulligans Flat Road, East Tallagandra Road and Sutton Road as a short cut to the Federal Highway or Gundaroo. The Read Road signpost is small and often hidden by trees resulting drivers mistakenly turning onto Read Road
Staff Reports – Page 23 of 34 Traffic Facilities Committee Meeting 6 February 2019 instead of East Tallagandra Road. We often witness cars, trucks and vehicles towing boats and caravans coming down our road, reaching the cul-de-sac turning around and heading back to East Tallagandra Road.
While there is a No Through Road sign they only see it after they have turned onto Read Road. What is more this sign is faded now.
Given all the above I hope that the YVC may have another look at placing a Caution Horse Riders sign on Read Road, improving the Read Road signpost and replacing and possibly repositioning the No Through Road sign.
If this is not possible is it still an option for Read Road residents to put up their own signs as suggested In retired Councillor David Needham’s email below? I would also like to know if there is a process I can follow where I can request that Read Road be accessed for reducing the speed limit. I see the traffic issues as now being similar to the situation that resulted in the speed limit has being reduced to 70kph on the Murrumbateman to Gundaroo Road near Murrumbateman.
I look forward to your response.
Kind regards

Good afternoon Meryl,
Apologies if I have misspelt your name.
Thank you for our discussion earlier this week regarding Read Road , Sutton. It was very encouraging to find out that there may be ways to address some of the issues I covered in my previous email.
As requested I have documented some of these issues in more detail below.
Firstly the use of Read Road, Mulligans Flat Road and other roads in the area for illegal and clearly dangerous activities by drivers. These include: (i) burn-outs are a popular activity on Friday and Saturday evenings/nights. The intersection of Read Road and Mulligans Flat Road is also the location for doing donuts and in the area around the fire rating sign adjacent to this intersection. The donut activity often covers the intersection in loose gravel and stones creating slippery conditions when braking or turning at the intersection; (ii) vehicle performance testing, where cars and motor cycle riders see what speeds they can achieve along the straights on Mulligans Flat Road; (iii) drag racing along the same straight sections of Mulligans Flat Road even when other vehicles are on the road; and (iv) another popular past-time is running over the white guide posts on either side of the roads. These are regular straightened up but only last a day or two.
Another concern is the sharp bend ion Mulligans Flat Road that is not far from the ACT border. This is a blind corner because of vegetation and a very large eucalyptus tree. The is a natural tendency to cut the corner slightly. I personally have had some close calls on this corner and it poses a danger for people are unfamiliar with the road. The potential for accidents is compounded by the speed that some vehicles enter the corner. It should be noted that the only speed sign as you cross the border into NSW from the ACT is a End of 60 klms sign. Clearing some of the vegetation and adding a recommended speed sign as used on other dangerous bends I believe would be a help.

Secondly, the growth of the Gungahlin suburbs has significantly increased the dumping of rubbish on I hope the above information is of help to you in continuing to improve road safety in the Yass Valley area.
