88/07 RESIDENT REQUEST - SEALING OF ACCESS ROAD TO<br />
SOMERSET TENNIS CLUB<br />
Correspondence has been received from Mr A Dunham, requesting that<br />
<strong>Council</strong> consider the sealing of the gravel access road that commences at the<br />
Esplanade and provides access to the Somerset Tennis Club and foreshore<br />
area.<br />
The writers concerns with the current situation are as follows:<br />
• Vehicles driving at inappropriate speeds<br />
• Hoon behaviour<br />
• Dust<br />
Mr Dunham considers that upgrading of the gravel access road would address<br />
the issues raised.<br />
OFFICERS COMMENTS<br />
The gravel access road provides vehicular access to the Somerset Tennis<br />
Courts and the foreshore area beyond.<br />
Recently some 20m of the access road and intersection were surfaced with<br />
asphalt to address dust issues and reduce the transfer of gravel to the<br />
Esplanade Road surface.<br />
The volume of traffic using the access road will vary according to the level of<br />
activity at the tennis courts and foreshore area. The level of maintenance<br />
required to maintain the road in good order is not excessive.<br />
