Improving safety at the Alfred Street and Grey Street intersection
About the project
We are proposing to install a roundabout at the intersection to improve safety for all road users by reducing crossing and turning crashes and enhancing pedestrian crossing facilities.
To accommodate these safety improvements, a total 29 parking will need to be reprioritised across all four legs of the roundabout-
- 14 on Grey Street
- 15 on Arthur Street
see the plan for details.
We have other improvement projects happening in this area- see other nearby projects link
What are we proposing
Install a mini roundabout with a fully mountable central island
Provide pedestrian refuge crossings on the approaches of Grey Street
Reconstruct the footpath where required
How this upgrade will benefit the community
The roundabout will slow vehicle speeds and allow for safer crossing and turning movements
A better layout at this intersection will make it easier for drivers to navigate and reduce the current confusion on who has priority
Pedestrian refuge islands will assist people needing to cross the road at this intersection
