Mr Ramsay: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
(1) Yes.
(a) The re-alignment of the intersection for light rail meant that the device would be inside the operating envelope. Access Canberra and JACSD determined that, as the intersection ranked highly in the Martin Small report, the intersection should continue to have a detection device installed. Accordingly, the decision was made to move the device to the verge.
(b) See response above.
(c) The camera was turned off at 09:16 hrs and removed on 5 October 2017 and it is not yet known when the camera will be reinstalled on the verge in the new location.
(d) Yes.
(2) Yes. See response to Q1. None in addition to this.
(a) Intersection of Northbourne Avenue, Antill Street, and Mouat Street.
(b) See response to Q1 part (a).
(c) See response to Q1 part (a).
(d) See response to Q1 part (c).
