Latest updates

Background

Each year Council seeks to improve the safety on our roads by seeking funding from Federal and State Government programs. The projects target those road locations where crashes are occurring or areas with a high crash risk.

Council has identified that the existing pedestrian refuge island needs to be upgraded to a raised pedestrian crossing in order to create a safer travelling environment for vehicles and pedestrians.

This proposal

Transport for NSW has allocated funding towards upgrading the existing pedestrian refuge island at Princess Street, Canterbury to a raised pedestrian crossing to reduce the number of speeding vehicles travelling on the street.

As a part of the proposal, the existing traffic island at the corner of Jeffrey Street and Princess Street will also be reconstructed.

This project is in line with Council’s vision of a ‘moving and integrated’ City, whereby we are improving the movement around our City for all users whilst also being a ‘safe and strong’ City.
