6 years since devastating Banjup fire of 3 February 2014

23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 13
See “Fire Chat” Share your Plan with family & friends
Have you considered preparing indoors for the worst?
- Ensure phone registered addresses up to date
- Fire safe for irreplaceables
- Back up all computer data into the “Cloud”
– Scan special family photos and copy into the “Cloud”
- Copy all special DVDs
– store at a relative’s house
- Identify a “Safe Room” shelter

23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 14
If you have to go, then …
- Close all windows and doors (house and sheds)

Emergency web site

23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 16
Stay informed at https://www.emergency.wa.gov.au/# If you have any special needs, or large animals, or anything out of the
- rdinary, then your Trigger to Leave
might be earlier than “Watch & Act”
DFES backed off from “REALLY unreliable” telephone warning system post on Facebook
- Telephone warning system is reliable
– But don’t make it your only warning
- Determine your own Survival Plan triggers
- Maybe include Alert2Me - Bushfire and Emergency Alert
- n your smart phone
- DFES recommends “Bushfire Ready Groups” of ~20
neighbours
– facilitated by fire brigade – work together to prepare for and respond to bushfire – keep each other informed – support each other when a bushfire threatens
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 17
Bushfire Ready Groups need on-going momentum to be effective
- Local fire brigade will facilitate local planning
- Once established, members must stay involved
- Are we ready to commit for the long term?

Banjup ‘Local Traffic Study’ was commissioned by Cockburn
- Cardno consultants held 2 community
workshops
– 14 May – 6 August – ~ 50 residents

- 54 submissions
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 22
Cardno noted 4 main concerns

- Speeding
- Road safety
– Pedestrians – Cyclists
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 23
Cardno found widespread support for traffic calming
- Examined several options
- Discounted some
- Made 6 main recommendations
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 24
Slow points at bends to prevent accidents
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 25
Modified T-intersections to deter speeding
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 26
Roundabout at Gibbs and Beenyup to improve safety and traffic flow
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 27
Modify roundabout at Gibbs and Liddelow to deflect traffic further and reduce speeds
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 28
Median strip at Liddelow and Rowley to deter rat runners
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 29
Main Roads’ policy is 60 to 70 kph speed limits
- n ‘Local Distributor Roads’
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 30
What priorities should we request?
- Slow points x 2
- Modified T intersections x 3

- Vote
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 33
Footpaths Dan Franklin
4:15
BRG pressed for 4.7 km of footpaths in 2012
- Drainage made costs far
more expensive than first thought
- Entire budget of $300k
spent on 770 metres along Beenyup
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 34
ROAD
FOOTPATH
3 m 1 m 8 m
No support for footpaths on Liddelow in 2012 Is there support in 2020?
- Path would be safer for the few walkers / cyclists
BUT
- Street lighting all along
- Trees must be removed
- Cockburn policy is dual use path 3 metres wide
– Liddelow 5 km long – 15,000 sq metres footpath @ $300 m2 – More than $4 million
- Who wants to campaign for budget?
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 35
23 February 2020 Banjup Residents Group 36
What shall we resolve?
- Motion:
– The BRG requests the City of Cockburn investigate the feasibility of constructing a footpath along Liddelow Road
