Last Saturday's Meeting at Anzac Park mentioned in this week's Westside News

It was a great turn out on Saturday, 6 November, 2010, at Anzac Park, Toowong, to meet with Cr Matic.

The drive around was sensational and showed how the Circuit Track, which is usually used by walkers, joggers and kids on bikes, and hardly any cars, could be inappropriately turned into something like a Grand Prix Circuit.

The Anzac Park Circuit Track is a one-way, narrow circuit so the plan to let workers enter the car park only from Dean Street will mean they still need to do a lap of the park to get to the car park. If they enter the park at Wool Street they still need to do part of the lap. How will the workers be monitored on which entry they use? With a number of shift changes this will mean hundreds and hundreds of comings and goings to our well used, but quiet park.

The rally last Saturday was a magnificent indication of what it will be like to have 300 cars entering the park at the same time: the 50 which turned up on Saturday afternoon caused a traffic jam, but a very cheerful one.

Joanna Freeburn from Friends of Anzac Park was quoted in the Westside News saying she was not sure what figures Cr Matic was looking at, but the car park would take up around 20 per cent of the usable areas of the park.
