Hi, My name is Ian, I am a resident of Altone Road. My concerns are 1 the extra traffic that passes through Altone road since the closure of Beechboro road access to the Highway and vice versa. We have approxamatly 20 to 30 % more traffic now using this road to access Benara road and Highway in the opposite direction. Whilst this is happening Altone shopping centre has changed its access within the car park, creating a dangerous bottle neck at this point. Only 2 cars can drive of Altone road into the main car park, quite often other cars will try to access while cars are still there and leave,s them in the middle of Altone road, I know this because I have been one of those unfortunate drivers on 3 occasions had to break sharp finding a car stopped in front of me. Altogether there are 5 access points and exit points in a short 100 mtrs plus section of road. That does not include any new access points for the now being built Beechboro Community Centre. There is a solution and I would be willing to put my thoughts forward. If something is not done and done soon we will have another Death outside the Shopping Centre.

I wrote to Swan Shire last year regarding the same concerns. I was quoted the number of accidents, near misses and no fatalities. This according to them , the figures did not warrant them to spend 2 million or so dollars in restructuring the road layout.

The roads are very dangerous now they had the money to close the 2 access points to the freeway thus putting that traffic to altone road and beechboro north road one would assume they would have budgeted for these extra upgrades required from blocking the 2 on off ramps
