The Shadow Minister for Cars, Alistair Coe, is getting hot under the collar about the parking situation in the supposedly planned Gungahlin:
“There are inadequacies within the Town Centre in terms of parking, bus stops, pedestrian crossings and public transport, which ACT Labor has given little thought to.
“In Hibberson Street for example, there are serious congestion issues caused by car, pedestrians and bus traffic and the major bus stops obstruct traffic and visibility.
“That’s why today I will call ACT Labor to: investigate alternative arrangements for bus traffic; develop a plan to provide park and ride users with car parking from prime retail parking; consider additional on-street car parking on Gungahlin Place; and, provide additional car parking at Yerrabi.
