Macedon Ranges - Your Home

The council always seems to be one or two years behind when it comes to the management of vehicle and pedestrian traffic during the Autumn Leaves period in Honour Avenue. This year the vehicle traffic wasn't quite as bad as last year (although the queuing off the freeway was still quite long), but the pedestrian traffic on the closed section of Honour Ave was extremely dense at times, with local residents sometimes being abused and aggressed when they tried to maneuver their vehicle slowly through the crowd.

Recently there was an incident where annoyance from a visitor over a resident vehicle escalated into a physical assault with police having to attend.

I have lived throught all the lock downs of Honour Ave and have had no problems. I have travelled both the long route from Mount Macedon Rd end and the shorter distance from Waterfalls Rd end to my house.

When pedestrian traffic on the roadway is light it is reasonably easy to negotiate through with a vehicle, but I find some pedestrians to be extremely intimidating and not wanting to move when they are large in numbers and fill the roadway.
