A petíció címzettje: Port Phillip council

We, the undersigned residents of Howe parade port Melbourne, request the City of Port Phillip Council to protect existing residents’ access to on-street parking by issuing resident permit parking.

The Barak Beacon site is being redeveloped by the Victorian Labor Government into a large high-density housing complex. This project has already caused severe parking disruption across Garden City, with construction workers occupying most available street spaces and creating congestion and access issues for long-term residents from 5am.

The problem will become far worse when the redevelopment is completed. Hundreds of new residents will compete for already limited street parking, with the site severely lacking in parking and the situation will be compounded by the Fishermans Bend urban renewal area, which will bring further high-density development and traffic into the same precinct.

Additionally, the new school on Williamstown rd will add daily traffic and parking pressure on Garden City’s residential streets, an area never designed to accommodate this level of demand.

We therefore request that the Council implement residential parking permits across both sides of Howe Parade.
