The most streets without footpaths?

Is this a record?

In an area of 16.6 square kilometers, one of the most densely populated areas of regional NSW, 70 streets (and still counting) with no footpaths or kerbing in Woy Woy, Umina, Ettalong, Blackwall and Booker Bay.

Mothers with young children, the infirm and everyday pedestrians risking their lives by having to walk out into the traffic to get around vehicles trailers and so on that are parked willy nilly on the unmade footpaths.

Ratepayers' money has gone down the drain with bad Council investments, with Peninsula ratepayers paying to have other suburbs upgraded in the Gosford Shire.

The Peninsula deserves to be the prime residential area of the Gosford Shire.

It is not good enough to just have patch up jobs done on the roads as documented by our deputy mayor Holstein.

A genuine effort to totally upgrade dozens of these roads needs to be implemented immediately.
