We lost 3 tyres in the space of 9 months. Two To begin with and were stranded, The council refused our letters of any reimbursment. And our third Just as we were Heading out of town for New Years Eve, and the council flatly refused to help us. The money we work so hard for is being taken from our pockets with out any hesitation, and it's not even to help our community. How are we supposed to expand as a town when you can't drive safetly.

Stop the buck passing and give the people of Mackay the service they expect, and pay for in taxes. Even if they started now it would take years to fix.

A proactive feedback loop keeping constituants informed on decisions needs to be implemented. Using the area's roads as a starting point for improvement (not just works improvement, but process improvement as well) is definitely a step in the right direction.

But I believe it would be harder to name a GOOD street than to list all the roads in poor repair. The continued "patch ups" are just not sufficient. A complete upgrade is necessary in many areas - (at a great cost I know) but this really needs to be addressed.
