PEREGIAN BEACH ACTIVE STREET - STAGE 1 PROGRESS UPDATE AND NEXT STEPS (Deferred from the Ordinary Meeting dated 19 March 2026 - Item 12.2) · Report

GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING                                                                9 JUNE 2026


Traffic Access, Property Access & Displacement
   •   Concerns about vehicles diverting to neighbouring streets, including Oriole Avenue
   •   Desire for mitigation measures to reduce rat-running and maintain local access
   •   Difficulty accessing properties with boats and trailers (including 7m trailers)
   •   Concerns about reversing movements near traffic calming devices and U-turn maneuvers
   •   Requests to widen driveways or adjust kerb clearances where required
Safety, Speed & E-Bikes
   •   Broad support for slower traffic and a 30 km/h speed environment, particularly where paired
       with traffic calming
   •   Concerns about interactions between fast-moving e-bikes, pedestrians and vehicles
   •   Vehicles driving in bike lanes and through roundabouts
   •   Preference for clearly marked pedestrian crossings (e.g. zebra crossings) or higher-contrast
       shared zones
   •   Requests for education and enforcement to support compliance
Vegetation, Drainage & Neighbourhood Character
   •   Strong preference to retain mature trees, including pandanus
   •   Desire to minimise visual and environmental impacts
   •   Concerns about stormwater runoff and drainage near driveways
   •   Noise concerns associated with overrun areas (described as rumble strips) and raised
       treatments and increased cyclist use
Design Alternatives & Route Considerations
   •   Some residents suggested relocating cycling infrastructure to David Low Way or adjusting
       pathway alignment (including the western side).
   •   Requests for wider pathways (suitable for two cyclists side-by-side)
   •   Desire to extend pathway connections fully to the village
   •   CPTED issues associated with the boardwalk and path diversion at Lorikeet Park
Other Key Feedback
   •   Support for stormwater upgrades and road repairs
   •   Requests for consistent pathway connections rather than partial sections
   •   Mixed views on speed reductions, with stronger support where clearly linked to improved
       safety outcomes
   •   A small number of submissions expressing full objection to the project in addition to the
       petitions listed below
