2 hazards reported to Dept of Transport Hotline (1800 018 313)

1- Heading North, between Tram line and Anzac Hwy (on Marion Rd) the bitumen is wrippled up in excess of 50 mm. (This is also a "squeeze" point for cyclists)


2- Heading South, 2 mtrs before tram line, there is a 50mm deep dip in the road.




Both hazards are between 1 and 2 metres from the kerb, and in the line of travel of a cyclist.

In addition to the risk of injury from impact, a cyclist changing line of travel to avoid the hazard is at risk of collision from passing vehicles.
