• Duffy Dog Park

It is a legislative requirement for dog owners to carry and use them, however the Government will continue to consider locations for dog waste bag dispensers.
(2) Removal of dog waste is the responsibility of dog owners. Consistent with the Canberra Dog Model, the Government is working to encourage responsible dog ownership including through education campaigns and on-ground engagement and education by TCCS rangers. Maintenance of the public realm in this area is undertaken as part of city-wide maintenance programs.
Municipal services—cyclepaths
(Question No 3232)
Mrs Kikkert asked the Minister for Roads and Active Travel, upon notice, on 24 July 2020:
Will the ACT Government extend the cycleway along the east side of Alberga Street, Kaleen, enabling children and families in Bruce to more safely travel to their catchment area school, Maribyrnong Primary; if so, when will work be anticipated to be completed; if not, what alternative measures does the ACT Government have to address the safety concerns on this road.
Mr Steel: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
Transport Canberra and City Services (TCCS) constructed a shared path on the southern side of Alberga Street, from the underpass under Ginninderra Drive in August 2018.
This path terminates approximately 200 metres east of the underpass. A pram crossing has been provided at this location to connect with the western side of Alberga Street and the existing shared path on the western side of Alberga Street. This path leads to a children’s crossing at a distance of about 300 metres located in front of the school for pedestrians to safely cross and access the school.
Roads—traffic calming
(Question No 3233)
Mrs Kikkert asked the Minister for Roads and Active Travel, upon notice, on 24 July 2020:
(1) In relation to the answer to question on notice No 2688 in which the Minister wrote that a traffic study report had recommended “a combination of speed humps on Shakespeare Crescent and an intersection upgrade at the Rogers Street/Shakespeare Crescent [intersection]. The ACT Government will install traffic calming measures on Shakespeare Crescent as the first priority measure in 2019–20, as a reduction in vehicle speeds may address the ‘line of sight / visibility’ issues at the intersection without further work being required’, why were no traffic calming measures installed in Shakespeare Crescent in 2019–20.
