Blog #3

This month I read about an organisation called Beyond Zero Emissions.  In addition to my regular engineering and tutoring work I had been looking for opportunities to undertake research so I have volunteered to assist with their Zero Carbon Australia 2020 Transport Sector Plan.  I look forward to finding out more about this research.
Although the formal feedback period has closed I took the plunge and printed off the draft 2011 – 2020 National Road Safety Strategy so I can read it comfortably away from the computer. 
Also, according to a Federal Department of Infrastructure and Transport’s website, nominations for Black Spot locations are invited from individuals.  So I have decided to send my concerns about the Barolin Street / Ruddell Street T-junction to the Black Spot Consultative Panel in Queensland in response to my friend’s crash.
Lastly, my moan for May:  Elliott Heads Road between McCarthy Street and Ashfield Road is so rough that I mistakenly pulled my car over to the side of the road to check if I had a flat tyre!
