TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

I fully support the initiative of the Motorcycle Riders Association of Australia for the replacement of non-frangible road signs and furniture at selected high crash rate black spots within the Victorian road system.

This initiative has come about as a result of the number of fatalities and serious injury crashes involving motorcyclists within Victoria, in particular on the South Gippsland Highway in the City of Casey.

The installation of ‘motorcycle friendly’ signs made of plastics and polymers would allow them to be hit or run over with very little damage to people or vehicles.

I hope this initiative by the MRAA will be given considerable consideration.

Yours faithfully
Cr Colin Butler
Mayor
City of Casey
