East Coast Road and Spencer Road intersection safety improvements

Thank you for your feedback. We reviewed all submissions and responded to everyone who emailed us. The engagement summary report outlines the key concerns raised in our survey and our responses.

We plan to go ahead with the changes. Construction is planned for September 2026. Before work begins, we'll send residents a works notification at least 5 days in advance. This will include the planned date and time of the works, along with contact details if any issues arise.

Thank you for helping us improve the East Coast Road and Spencer Road intersection.

At the intersection of East Coast Road and Spencer Road, we’ll install traffic signals. They will make it safer and easier for vehicles and pedestrians to cross.

Between 720 and 756 East Coast Road, we’ll build a new footpath to make it safer for pedestrians. Where the footpath also crosses a driveway, we will also reinstate the property access at our cost.

We will bring bus stops 3151 and 3170 closer together to give pedestrians a safe place to cross. Bus stop 3151 will move from outside 655 East Coast Road to outside 671 and 673 East Coast Road. Bus stop 3170 will move from outside 780 East Coast Road to outside 792 East Coast Road.

We will install broken yellow lines (no stopping at all times) around the intersections and bus stops to improve visibility and safety. Cars cannot be parked on broken yellow lines.

We will slightly shift bus stop and shelter 3146 outside 730 East Coast Road to align with the new footpath.

Outside 7 and 12 Spencer Road, we’ll install new school bus stops to give students a safer place to wait for the bus.

What happens next

We plan to start construction in late 2026.
