Brooker Highway - Future

Future

The Department of Infrastructure, Energy and Resources proposes to re-align the Elwick Road and Goodwood Road exits, reducing confusion and the number of traffic lights. The nearby Goodwood roundabout will also be replaced with traffic lights. The Tasmanian Government has also revealed they are currently planning to upgrade the interchange at the Domain Highway to improve access and travel flows for passenger and freight. This includes a capacity expansion to 6 lanes from the Domain Highway to Risdon Road.

Recently the government came under pressure from the community to improve pedestrian access over the highway at Goodwood and eliminate the stairs primarily for the benefit of the elderly and handicapped.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    “The difference between Pound and Whitman is not between the democrat who in deep distress could look hopefully toward the future and the fascist madly in love with the past. It is that between the woodsman and the woodcarver. It is that between the mystic harking back to his vision and the artist whose first allegiance is to his craft, and so to the reality it presents.”
    —Babette Deutsch (1895–1982)

    “As a child is indulged or checked in its early follies, a ground is generally laid for the happiness or misery of the future man.”
    —Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    “He who asks fortune-tellers the future unwittingly forfeits an inner intimation of coming events that is a thousand times more exact than anything they may say. He is impelled by inertia, rather than curiosity, and nothing is more unlike the submissive apathy with which he hears his fate revealed than the alert dexterity with which the man of courage lays hands on the future.”
    —Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
