ONGOING issues with traffic flow at peak times outside the Mansfield business Buller Sports at the entrance to town was discussed at a Traffic Liaison Committee meeting with various stakeholders early last week.

Mansfield Police were in attendance as were Regional Roads Victoria, the Mansfield Shire and Buller Sports management.

Snr Sgt Steven Carden outlined the topics that were discussed at the meeting.

"First topic it appears that many people coming into town see Buller Sports first and think that is the only supplier for chain hire," he said.

"This was followed by an exploration of large pictorial sign on approach simply showing the locations of other chain hire outlets all the way through.

"There was exploration of cost of a turning lane.

“This would clearly be a long term project that is not funded, however exploring cost is a start.

“Buller Sports have already altered the traffic flow within the premises and have staff directing to ensure space managed as effectively as possible which has reduced the issue somewhat since start of season."

"The business also presented a plan that will require some structural changes that will create further efficiency.

"All stakeholders share the concern by the community and are actively working towards solutions."
