Pedestrian Crossing not built

I received a email after I rang the Randwick City Council. They replied to my inquiry of create the Market St crossing island a raised pedestrian with a NO because of these problems I will now state.

Firstly, a survey that the council made showed that most people who crossed through the island failed check if a vehicle was stopping before the kerb. So if the council did put a pedestrian crossing people would be even more slack and be at more risk of getting run over.

Secondly, the visibility on Darley Rd is significantly reduced in the morning and at night and at the peak time of people crossing is in the morning witch will put many people in danger.

In conclusion they stated that the pedestrian accessibility is at its greatest.

Occupational Health and Safety

Occupational health and safety: Centennial Parklands needs to ensure the health and safety of all the people visiting the venue, in this situation Queens Park and the playground. It is important that I tell you this as to get informed I must interview someone on my topic. The park ranger has a direct contact to centennial Parklands so he can help me to address them. Centennial Parklands must help me because of OHS, so I have a louder voice in my area

Think Locally Act Globally - Road Safety

My action is build a raised pedestrian crossing at Darley Rd and Market St, But my global problem is road safety. In Australia 37 children are killed from cars. The government has cut this number by 55% but there is still a long way to go, to completly eliminate road safety as a concern.

Child care

My 'Make a difference challenge', a raised pedestrian crossing across Darley Rd at the level of Market St, Randwick, is situated between a child care center and a park. The childcare centre is among many reasons to put a raised pedestrian crossing in at this position. A child could leave the premises of the childcare centre heading towards the playground area and walk straight out on to the road and get run over by a car. Another reason is that a great many children cross the road there to go from the Queens Park Pizza place to Queens park for a picnic, a sporting game or to play in the playgound.

Raised Pedestrian Crossing

I am doing a make a difference challenge for my school Cranbrook.
What:
My challenge is to get a raised pedestrian crossing put in at the intersection of Darley Road and Market Street.
Why:
I am putting the pedestrian crossing to make the cars coming down Darley Road slow down and to protect the kids at the child care center.
How will I know:
I will know that I have down this because I will see construction workers around the area creating a raised pedestrian crossing, or I will see the built pedestrian crossing.
