Walking, driving and cyclingOverview
Residents have raised concerns about vehicles parking at the head of the cul-de-sac. Parked vehicles can block access to driveways. They can also make it difficult for rubbish trucks and other service vehicles to safely enter and turn around.
To address these issues, we’re proposing to install broken yellow lines (no stopping at all times) at the head of the cul-de-sac. We will also remove about 4 or 5 on street parking spaces. These changes are intended to improve safety, visibility, and vehicle manoeuvrability while maintaining the residential character of the street.
