IMPROVE TRANSPORT

Mike Turinsky will continue to improve transport for the Botany subdivision. In his 9 years on the Local Board for Botany, Mike has worked to improve the safety of our roads and footpaths; including two major projects to provide safe crossings of students to local schools and a push to replace footpaths around the subdivision (including from Baverstock Oaks School to Chapel Road). Mike successfully fought to install a roundabout at an unsafe intersection (Aspiring Avenue and Thomas Road) where there were multiple accidents each month. Mike worked with the Burswood community to implement no parking lines outside Bunnings to improve safety. He completed the footpath on the corner of Accent and Te Irirangi Drive. He is also providing strong advocacy for the completion of the Airport to Botany Rapid Transit, and for the Eastern Busway public transport from Botany to Panmure.​​ However, Mike led the fight to oppose the bus route going through Burswood at the expense of people's houses.

Burswood and Buses... fighting to save homes

​​​​

By Mike Turinsky

People, public transport and long term planning is needed for the Eastern busway. Short term savings and construction convenience by going through Burswood may have bigger long term costs. It needs to be done right and they need to consider the communities of interest.
