Dynnyrne Residents Against Demolition

The petition of the undersigned citizens of Tasmania draws to the attention of the House the Liberal Government's plan to demolish houses along Dynnyrne Road for the purpose of building a fifth lane on the Southern Outlet and the unnecessary stress, anguish and trauma this is causing to the residents.

 Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to call upon the Minister for Infrastructure to consider more practical and immediate solutions to solve Hobart's traffic congestion including:

•  the immediate re-design and re-construction of the intersections of the Southern Outlet, Macquarie and Davey Streets;
•  the immediate commencement of more effective clearway rules for the whole of Davey and Macquarie Streets and removing the present hindrances to that;
•  the immediate introduction of alternative traffic demand mitigation strategies at their disposal, noting the SOS Hobart residents group has already recommended a  number of practical alternative solutions; and
• immediately cease any plans or attempts to compulsorily acquire land and homes in Dynnyrne
