1. I live in an apartment block directly across the road from this development and have no problem with the development Per Se, however there is an urgent need to restrict the amount of street parking from rail commuters as on weekdays and Blackwood Street market days University Rd becomes ONE LANE with cars having to back up to allow others to use the road. This dangerous situation will only get considerably worse when construction starts with contractors vehicles, trucks and alike.
   It seems that residents in this my block have to take their live in their hands just to exit our carpark with cars speeding along this narrow Rd. My suggestion is that while the approvals are being considered for all the units being built on University Rd, the road should be WIDENED as Sussex Street has been widened not that long ago. A further suggestion is to restrict the speed limit to 40 kph.

2. We live in the unit complex directly across from this proposed development.
   We have serious concerns for the traffic flow in our street which is already clogged
   with a combination of residents cars, commuter traffic and market day cars.
   We also have concerns regarding the building of more and more units in this area and
   no noticeable upgrade to the surrounding infrastructure, namely Samford Road.
   Added to the congestion there is frequent stopping for the train crossings. We ask
   you to consider the impact on traffic flow in the general area when considering this and
   all other developments in our wonderful suburb of Mitchelton.

3. Thank you for allowing my comment. I would like to paint a picture worth a thousand words. I would love to see development especially when council force it to include off street parking for EVERY tenant plus visitors. My reason is clogged roads and I include three photos of University road to show my point. 1. Only way street!! 2. No passing in street!. 3. plenty of width to widen road!. Please note this occurs every weekday and every Mitchelton Sunday market day.
   Please copy and paste the link to see (or print) the pictures.
