Council is proposing minor town centre upgrades at Church Rd, Yagoona, to provide pedestrian safety when crossing the busy intersection at Church Rd and the Hume Highway.

Upgrades include a refuge island to improve safety, as well as a new brick feature wall and landscaping works to brighten up the area and match the public domain style of the current Yagoona commercial area.

Proposed works include the following:

• A new pedestrian refuge island;
• A new feature brick wall at the corner of Church Rd/Hume Hwy along the boundary of property no.550;
• An upgrade to the road pavement, footpath, kerb ramps and driveways on both sides up to Breasley Pl;
• A new garden bed, bus shelter, seats, and bins;
• Associated street and traffic signage and linemarking works; and
• Garden bed planting and new mulching in private property no.550.
