The cover is sunken more than 20mm and is approximately 1 metre from the kerb.

38 Murray Tce (photo attached)
The cover is sunken more than 20mm. It is approx 3 metres from the kerb, however in the line of a cyclist when passing a parked car (see video in above link).

Hazard - Marion Rd - between Tram Line and Anzac Hwy

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.

False statement - Uninterrupted travel along coast

The news item in The Advertiser suggests that this will be happening soon.

Really? Can we have a date on that?

I suspect no date will be provided, and the news is misleading and false.

Fwd: Unsatisfactory Road Repair - Before-After photos (WTCC)

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

 

This was reported to West Torrens Council 15 Dec 2009.

http://roadrepair.blogspot.com/2009/12/fwd-hazard-12-birkalla-tce-nth-plympton.html

 

The attached image shows how the dip was repaired, yet a rut, extending over 1 metre long and more than 50mm deep was not attended to.

 

This rut will not only damage a bicycle on impact, it will catch the wheel and cause a fall onto the roadway.

Please confirm how and when West Torrens Council will meet the basic duty of care to remove this road hazards for cyclists.

This issue has been published to Ride Out Loud (http://rideoutloud.blogspot.com/) for general discussion.
