Question 1
Can data please be provided or collected to analyse how many families and children reside in the Beckman's Road, St Teresa's Catholic College, Lake Entrance Boulevard to Good Shepherd Lutheran College surrounding areas?
Response provided by Shaun Walsh, Acting Director Infrastructure Services
Thank you for this question. Firstly, Council acknowledges the challenges of crossing these busy sections of road. Council has currently not compiled this demographic data about families and children in these school catchments but can arrange for it to be collected alongside data currently being collected for the Noosa Traffic Study. Council is currently undertaking an update to the Noosa Traffic Study using contemporary traffic data and is expected to be completed by June 2025. This study is a critical technical document that will guide infrastructure planning for the next 30 years. Council will analyse the data to determine the need for various traffic improvement projects, including safer pedestrian crossings.

Question 2
Response provided by Shaun Walsh, Acting Director Infrastructure Services
Thank you again for this question. Firstly, Council acknowledges the challenges of crossing these busy sections of road. Council’s Walking and Cycling Strategy has identified the need for safer, more convenient pedestrian crossings on Eumundi-Noosa Road. This document was prepared by engineers in Council. In addition, the Noosa Traffic Study update is currently occurring, also overseen by engineers. This study is a critical technical document that will guide infrastructure planning for the next 30 years. Council will analyse the data to determine the need for various traffic improvement projects, including safer pedestrian crossings. Any proposed traffic improvements projects, such as new crossings, will be subject to Council’s budget deliberations in coming years. Council can also use the Traffic Study to support grant applications. Council will certainly undertake public consultation program as part of any approved projects.
