Last update date: 06 December 2024

After community consultation in 2023, the road safety improvement project at Central Avenue and Clifton Crescent is moving forward.

The City received a total of 936 valid responses from the community during the 5-week consultation period. At the Council Meeting of 30 May 2023, Council agreed to the community’s second preferred option which is to construct a raised intersection plateau (with no movements restricted). This option was selected as it was agreed to be the least likely to cause further distribution of traffic or ‘rat-runs’ onto nearby local roads.

The Council also resolved to submit a grant funding application for the 2024/2025 budget of the Black Spot Program for the construction of the raised intersection plateau. The City was successful in its application and construction has been scheduled.
