Hazard - stormwater cover - Jetty Rd Glenelg

To the City of Holdfast Bay
mail@holdfast.sa.gov.au

This is report # 26

See others here

This Stormwater cover has been hazardous many times over the last 12 months, 25 times being reported by me.

Your inability to fix this cover effectively is a waste of ratepayers money.

The above point will certainly create the "Community Need" that Council require to take action.

I look forward to your response.

Hazard - Railway Tce HOVE Bikeway

To Holdfast and Marion councils
council@marion.sa.gov.au mail@holdfast.sa.gov.au

Please remove the tree overhand on Railway Tce, between Diagonal Rd Hove and Brighton Road (Hove Railway Station).
(photo attached)

The trees overhang onto the road in many places (both in Marion and Holdfast Council areas).

This is a bikeway.

The trees will cause a collision with passing cars, as they do not expect cyclists to move out into the road.

Hazard - Railway Tce Edwardstown WITH PHOTOS

To Marion Council council@marion.sa.gov.au

Hello

First, thank you for attending to the trees in this report:
http://roadrepair.blogspot.com/2010/05/fwd-multiple-hazards-railway-tce-ascot.html

The attached photos are on the same road, but closer to Daws road.

Notice that one is at an intersection. This is very dangerous as vehicles do not expect the cyclist to move into their line of travel.

Hazard - Service cover on corner

 
Hello
 
Please remove the hazard caused by the service cover on the corner of Cudmore and Partridge street, Glenelg. There are two locations on opposite sides of the roundabout. The attached photo only shows one of the two hazards.
 
These hazards were reported to Holdfast council 2 years ago but no action has been taken to remove the hazard.
 
These service covers are a hazard to cyclists. Impact may cause injury or a fall. Avoiding the hazard may cause collision with passing vehicles not expecting the bicycle to change direction.
 
Please also note that this is a bikeway AND is located next to a secondary school.

To West Torrens Council csu@wtcc.sa.gov.au

There are two potholes forming on Birdwood Tce.


One is East of Oval Tce.

The other is at the corner of Birdwood Close.

This road has had multiple reports (see http://roadrepair.blogspot.com/search?q=birdwood )

Also, a couple of years ago a pothole in the same location was the basis of a claim against council for costs. The council claimed it was not liable "in Tort".


In the event of an incident due to the road surface on Birwood Tce, a case of FACTUAL CAUSATION would see the City of West Torrens liable (overridding any excemption by state Government or an "in Tort" scenario).

I hope you see this information as saving the City of West Torrens money AND working towards a safer environment for cyclist, pedestrians and motorists.
