2.Traffic Calming: Where do you see cut through traffic causing trouble on residential streets? What traffic calming elements would you like to see, and where? What barriers to walking, cycling, strolling, are you experiencing?

3.Housing and Land Use: Given that Victoria is expected to grow by approximately 20,000 people by 2041, how do you see the Oaklands neighbourhood changing or adapting to ensure everyone has a quality place to live?

4.Housing and Land Use: What kind of housing do you think the neighbourhood should develop to accommodate both the expected growth and existing residents needs that will change throughout their life stages?
