Multiple Networks –

19m, 23m and 25/26m B-Double (GML)

Liverpool City Council

Remove the following approval routes:

 

Beech Road, Prestons - from M5 Motorway off ramp, Casula, to Kurrajong Road, Prestons.

Due to the existing road conditions, B-double vehicles access to this street section is minimal and Could like this road section be removed from the B-double route mapping as this is impacting on the proposed Kurrajong Road/Beech Road/Lyn Parade intersection upgrade.

 

Preferred route for B-double vehicles from M5 Motorway to the Prestons Industrial area is via M7 Motorway instead of via Beech Road which is a residential street.
