Not suitable for the roads. The need for another service station in carrum downs is not needed. It will cause even more congestion and does not suit the housing that it would neighbour.
Carrum Downs has enough service stations. There’s would literally be 4 servos within 2kms of there. Carrum downs needs more restaurants rather than servos
We don’t need another servo in Carrum Downs, placing it there would only worsen the already bad traffic. Please do not proceed.
Make it a ‘practical’ service station with options… Not main stream BP
or Shell like a 7/11 with some other smaller food outlets….don’t care what goes there, land is an eyesore and the area doesnt need anymore tiny units. You would need an appropriate traffic management plan with the use of slip lanes, I imagine this is inline with the set of lights being installed for the upgrade and no roundabout ?
Don’t need another servo, and it borders residential homes. I don’t agree at all. It will be noisy for neighbors and the smell of fumes would be horrible. That section is also horribly congested already. Bad, bad idea. Why can’t you put in a park instead or even another doctors surgery.
No more servos please, this is a horribly congested roundabout already and it will be a accident in the making if this goes ahead, also there are homes around this land and it will be unfair to the owners of these homes to have their residences devalued by this being built there
If another service station goes ahead there should be green zones added and native planting and not just 1 tree, the pie face service station up the road has enough concrete to land a plane on
Carrum downs does not need another petrol station, I'm not against having some commercial development go in there though it would be good to see some substantial native plantings amongst multi use cafe/ restaurant style buildings
Please no more petrol stations in Carrum Downs
Have you taken in the congestion particularly at school drop off and pick up times at that intersection. Lot of school children walking in that area to and and from school as well. This will cause issues with cars ducking in quickly for petrol. It does not seem to be in line with the area ie it is all housing there.
You are already planning on widening the roads in a residential area. To add a service station will just increase all the issues that Hall Rd/McCormick already has.
This is already a dangerous area for pedestrians and children, increasing traffic will just worsen the already existing issues.
We don't need another petrol station. How about community garden plots or an open park area. Its in a residential area make it appropriate for the residents
How many service stations does one road need ? Im sure there is enough options, don't need another one.
No servo please just a slab concrete ans let small business owners that have like coffee van or some other mobile some business
This would be very unfair to local residents. The area is only residential and a service station would impact negatively. Also the congestion is already bad at peak times and would make the intersection quite dangerous.
6 petrol stations all within 2 to 5 minutes of each other. Did not think that area was zoned comercial. More medical needed in this area.
No more petrol stations needed. A small commercial / restaurant / take away food strip would be far more useful to that area.
Carrum Downs does not need another petrol station. The corner of Hall Road and McCormacks would be an accident waiting to happen it is already a busy roundabout. Apart from that who would want a petrol station next door not very favourable for the residents already living there. How many petrol stations does one area need anyway.
Terrible idea! We need more parks and green areas than petrol stations. It is neighbouring residential areas, and roads are too congested. We don't want this! Please no.
Does not suite the current infrastructure and there is more than enough stations and car washes in the area there is not a beneficial need. What is the underlying reason for this plan.
There would need to be significant structural changes to the Hall Rd, McCormicks Rd intersection in order to make this development viable.
In addition given the fact there are existing residential dwellings on two boundaries, generous compensation should be offered to those residents for the inconvenience that will come having a 7/11 in such close proximity.
The congestion at that intersection most days is heavy. This would be expected to increase with the opening of a 7/11.
What noise protections will be installed to protect residents from the increased noise due to traffic?
What remedies are planned to cope with the fumes and vehicle exhaust for the nearby residential properties?
Personally, I don’t think this application has thought through. There are 3 service stations within 3kms of this location, another two service stations within 8km on Westernport Hwy, another two service stations within 5kms on Frankston Dandenong Rd and Seaford Road. I do not believe the area needs another service station.
This application should be rejected as it offers little add-value to the local community of Carrum Downs.
So Frankston city council what is the update on this ?
No news must be good news
I think a 7/11 as well as some
Food outlets would be a fabulous idea for that large corner allotment and just what the area needs.
And I own the house on the opposite corner. I would welcome the development!
Really unsuitable place for a service station. Haven’t we enough of them here already? The Traffic is bad enough, this would make congestion worse.
Having a 7 eleven would definitely be fantastic as the closest one to me is on Frankston-Dandenong Rd so having one so close to me is great and great to walk too in case we need bread or milk so yes please also we need restaurants we need shops. The old masters building it is vacant please put Big W, Chemist Warehouse, JB HIFI, Target, Best & Less, Harris Scarfe, Millers, Optus and Telstra Shop, Suzanne Grace, Other Banks
We have too many housing, too many pizza shops, too many drs. Just no shops the nearest I have to go and even take my mum too is Cranbourne Shopping Centre or Karingal Hub so having all the shops in Carrum Downs will bring more locals in please consider as more elderly and mums would love and prefer.
