To the Honourable the Speaker and Members of the House of Representatives

This petition of:

Residents of Tasmania in particular Sorell, Tasman, Glamorgan, Spring Bay Municipalities Draws to the attention of the House that:

The road infrastructure in the Sorell municipality is totally inadequate and by 2015 the situation will be unsustainable and the only effective solution will be the By-Pass/Diversion and that Sorell is on the direct route to the World Heritage Port Arthur Site and gate way to the East Coast of Tasmania.

We therefore ask the House to:

Fund the ‘Sorell By-Pass/Arthur Highway diversion under the ‘Road to Recovery Scheme’ or under ‘Heritage Funding’ or any other associated funding within 5 years’.
