Feedback closed 13 March 2022
Council was successful in gaining funding from the Federal Government Stimulus Commitment Road Safety Program (School Zone Infrastructure) to upgrade the existing marked foot pedestrian crossing on Clarke Street between Willoughby Road and Hume Lane to a raised pedestrian crossing.
The proposed raised pedestrian crossing incorporates a flat top road hump and kerb extensions on both sides, which will increase the visibility of approaching drivers, slow down traffic and reduce the crossing distance. The proposal will not result in any parking loss. The proposed concept is available in the Document Library - Current Surveys.
If there is general community support for this proposal, it is intended that works will be completed by the end of June 2022.
The results of this consultation will be considered by the North Sydney Traffic Committee.
The feedback form is not a voting form as such but will assist in determining support for the pedestrian crossing upgrade. All feedback received will be considered, however it is not intended to reply to individual respondents.
