Mitcham's Corner Development Framework SPD

Representation ID: 31338

Received: 10/10/2016

Respondent: Mr Philip Lund

Representation Summary:

While supporting the plan in general I object to the retention of the houses in the middle of Mitchams Corner. Under the new scheme vehicles and cycles coming south down Milton Road and wanting to cross Victoria Bridge will have to execute a left turn into Chesterton Road then a right onto the bridge approach. The loss of the buildings would enable a proper crossroads at the bottom of Milton Road with a straight-over way onto the bridge. The space from the demolished buildings not needed for the road could be incorporated into the general green space of the square.
