  • 5.6. Macrossan Street - State Road Designation
    62 of 215 5.6. MACROSSAN STREET - STATE ROAD DESIGNATION REPORT AUTHOR Michael Kriedemann, Executive Manager Infrastructure MANAGER Mark Stoermer, Chief Executive Officer DEPARTMENT Infrastructure RECOMMENDATION That Council resolves to: 1. Support the concept of Council ownership of Macrossan Street - Port Douglas, between Wharf and Davidson Streets; 2. Delegates authority under section 257 of the Local Government Act 2009 to the Chief Executive Officer to negotiate and finalise the transfer of ownership of Macrossan Street with the Queensland Department of Transport & Main Roads. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Macrossan Street, Port Douglas is a State Controlled Road and whenever Council plans improvements along the street it must seek approval from the Department of Transport and Main Roads approval (DTMR). At the Council Workshop held Tuesday 3 December 2019, Councillors discussed the idea of negotiating ownership of Macrossan Street with the Department of Transport & Main Roads. At this workshop, Councillors agreed that the Executive Manager Infrastructure was to discuss the idea with the DTMR corridor manager to gauge their appetite for relinquishing State Control of Macrossan Street. Some of the advantages to Council controlling Macrossan Street include: Council has final say on improvements; Council can close the road for events without seeking DTMR approval; The community see it as a Council road so this would enshrine this belief; Council can implement streetscape improvements such as ‘shared zones’, coloured pavements and textures,

    Australia 2011 (Queensland and Northern Territories) July 5 We left home at 15.15 with a taxi, took a train to Schiphol International Airport. Flight KL837 (KLM) to Singapore, departure 21.00. Upon arrival in Singapore, I saw some House Crows and Common Myna at Changi Airport. After 8 hours waiting (including a delay of 2 hours), we had a connecting flight via Darwin to Cairns with Jet Star (JQ58). July 6 We arrived in Cairns at 10.15. We picked up the rental car (Hertz; Toyota Kluger), bought groceries and gas cylinders for our stove, took a nap just outside Cairns, and drove -via the coastal route- to Kingfisher Park in Julatten. After pitching up the tent, we all slept at 19.45. July 7 Rose at 06.00. We tried to find Blue-faced Parrot Finch at Sides Rd (next to Wessel Rd), and then went for a walk in Lewis NP. We dipped on the Parrot Finch, but enjoyed good views of Spectacled Monarch (male), Large-billed Srubwren, Red-bellied Black Snake, etc. When driving back to Kingfisher Park, we stopped again at Sides Rd. This time we were more successful and found two Blue-faced Parrot Finches! In the afternoon we visited Mt. Molloy, a little village, almost ghost town-like. Surprisingly bird-rich, including Squatter Pigeon, Peaceful Dove, Bar-shouldered Dove, Great Bowerbird (common), Bush Stone-Curlew, etc. Next, we had a brief stop at Abattoir Swamp, where we had great views of a Giant White-lipped Tree-Frog. Later that day we found a second frog in one of the toilets at Kingfisher Park and had great views of a female Papuan Frog-Mouth.
