Petition – Sound Barriers

Coomera Connector Helensvale

 

As you would be aware, the State Government has recently announced they will begin work on the Coomera Connector.

 

For some time I have been fighting to mitigate the impact of this road on local residents by incorporating Sound Barriers that use “best practices” from around the world.

Sound barriers that incorporate “caps” at their tops are proven to mitigate sound from roadways far better than conventional sound barriers.  This is supported by university studies which demonstrates they are more effective than conventional methods.

 

Therefore, I am seeking your support for the below petition and would appreciate you signing the petition to ensure our area receives world’s best practice initiatives with sound mitigation.

The Petition Reads

 

“Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House the need for better sound mitigation for residents residing near our motorways. There has been much scientific research regarding sound-barriers and methods to improve their effectiveness with research showing adding “caps” to sound barriers has a positive impact by further reducing noise compared to a conventional sound barrier.

Your petitioners, therefore, request the House that as part of the Coomera Connection Project, all new sound barriers incorporate “caps” to further mitigate noise from the roadway.”

 

 

Thank you for your continued support and if ever I can be of assistance, or you see me at a roadside, please do not hesitate to stop and have a chat.

Queensland residents draws to the attention of the House the lack of public transport options for residents who reside in Maudsland.

Currently, there is no public transport options for residents living in the estates off Maudsland Road, Maudsland.

Your petitioners, therefore, request the House to do all within its power to provide bus services in this area.
