Walking and drivingOverview
There is no dedicated pedestrian crossing at Church Crescent and Sunset View Road. It is hard for residents, parents with children, bus passengers, and people visiting the church to cross the road safely.
To improve safety and accessibility, we're proposing changes to both Church Crescent and Sunset View Road.
At Church Crescent we plan to:
- install a new pedestrian refuge crossing near the bus stop, including pram ramps
- install new road markings and signs to support the crossing
- move the bus stop onto the road, with space for vehicles to safely pass stopped buses using the flush median
- build a kerb build-out at the northbound bus stop, widening the footpath around the stop
- install broken yellow lines (no stopping at all times).
At Sunset View Road we plan to install:
- a new 2-stage raised zebra crossing with kerb build-out and refuge islands
- new road markings and signs to support the crossing
- a new footpath with berm removal to support the crossing.
We will need to remove 11 on-street parking spaces to make space for these safety improvements.
Latest updates
From 7 to 24 August 2026, we sought feedback on the proposal, which included:
- a new pedestrian refuge crossing on Church Crescent
- changes to the northbound bus stop
- a new raised zebra crossing on Sunset View Road.
We got 14 submissions from local residents. Feedback was mixed. Many people supported improving pedestrian safety, particularly on Church Crescent. However, there was concern about moving the northbound bus stop into the traffic lane.
After considering the feedback, we will go ahead with the proposed pedestrian safety improvements, with one change — the northbound bus stop on Church Crescent will be shifted further north. It will remain indented off the traffic lane, rather than being moved into the traffic lane as originally proposed.
All other elements of the proposal will go ahead as proposed. That includes the pedestrian refuge on Church Crescent and the raised zebra crossing on Sunset View Road.
We expect construction to take place before the end of the financial year.
