Have your say on pedestrian safety in Mapleton

Pedestrian safety in Mapleton is in the spotlight, with a new community survey launched to better understand local concerns and potential improvements along Obi Obi Road.

Member for Nicklin Marty Hunt MP is running a community feedback survey to give residents the opportunity to shape future advocacy and ensure decisions reflect the needs of the community.

“This survey is about listening to locals,” Mr Hunt said.

“My office has had a number of enquiries about pedestrian safety in Mapleton, and it’s important we understand whether this is a broader community concern and what solutions people want to see.”

The survey invites feedback from anyone who lives, works, or spends time in Mapleton. It covers key issues such as pedestrian crossings, traffic flow, and overall safety priorities.

Mr Hunt said community input would play a critical role in building a clear and accurate picture of the situation on the ground.

“Every response helps us better understand how people are using Obi Obi Rd in Mapleton and where improvements may be needed,” he said.

“It’s important that we hear from a wide cross-section of the community so I can advocate for what may be needed.”

The survey will remain open over the coming months, giving residents ample opportunity to participate.

Marty will be holding his regular Mapleton Conversation Station on Friday, April 17 outside the Mapleton Community Library. Stay tuned to his Facebook page for more information or contact his office at nicklin@parliament.qld.gov.au.
