The petition read as follows: ‘This petition draws to the attention of the Council: Objection to the Inkerman Road Safe Cycling Corridor Pilot We, the undersigned, are concerned that the proposed Pilot will significantly and detrimentally affect the amenity of the residents of Caulfield North and St Kilda East who live on Inkerman Road/Street and adjacent streets. We request that Council: Reject the proposal of removing or limiting parking along Inkerman to put in a separated bicycle path as this would create accessibility, waste management and traffic safety issues for residents of these areas and their visitors, and for local businesses and their customers. Make the current bicycle lane safer by means which do not detrimentally impact on the residents of Inkerman in the enjoyment and use of their properties and businesses. Work with the State government to develop a safe link between the Djerring Trail and the St Kilda Road separated bicycle lane on a wider road, such as Dandenong Road, which more fully allows for safe separation of cyclists from moving and parked cars. Moved: Cr Delahunty Seconded: Cr Sztrajt That Council: 1. receives and notes the petition; and 2. considers the petition in conjunction with the Safe Cycling Corridor Pilot.
