Bannockburn Transport Strategy

Community participation is essential in ensuring that the Strategy meets the transport needs of our community over the next 15 to 20 years. Council is providing a range of opportunities for community members to provide input into the development of the draft Strategy.

Survey (3 May – 2 June 2018)

This survey aimed to help Council understand the issues and priorities of local residents.  The survey was mailed to all Bannockburn households, and was also available online to all Golden Plains Shire residents. Over 300 community members responded to the survey.

Conversation post (2 June 2018)

Community members had the opportunity to engage directly with Council staff about the Strategy at the pop-up conversation post at the Golden Plains Farmers Market in June. Thank you to the 30 community members who took the time to chat to us on the day.

Conversation Post (11 July 2018)

Community members were invited to attend our 'Day on the Town' at the Bannockburn Plaza in July. We sought community views on site-specific issues, such as sight lines, speeding vehicles and increased traffic. Locations and issues of greatest concern included: poor sight lines on the Geelong Rd/Kelly Road/Clyde Rd/Bannockburn Shelford Rd intersection; volumes of heavy vehicles on the Geelong Road between Midland Highway and Railway Crossing; volumes of heavy vehicles at the Clyde Road / Midland Highway intersection.
