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
