Campaigner sets 10,000-signature target for Pacific Highway safety petition

Key points

• Close to 7,000 signatures have been collected in a renewed push to improve safety at two Pacific Highway intersections, with Bucketts Way and Medowie Road. Petition organiser Leah Veksins says the petition will stay open until it reaches 10,000 signatures.
• She describes it as the fourth petition seeking improvements, after earlier efforts in 1995, 2005 and 2015. While an overpass is among her preferred options, she is also open to traffic lights or stop controls.
• The petition asks governments and road authorities to work together on a redesign of both junctions.
