St Ignatius School pedestrian safety improvements

We’re proposing to:

• install an at-grade (level with the road) zebra crossing on Long Drive near Speight Road, with a central pedestrian island for safer crossing and slower traffic
• install kerb ramps on both sides of the crossing for easier access
• install tactile pavers to help guide people across the road safely
• upgrade the footpath on both sides of the crossing
• create a new indented pick-up and drop-off zone with 3 parking spaces
• install high-friction surfacing to slow vehicles down as they get near the crossing
• install new signs and road markings
• remove trees near the crossing to improve driver visibility
• paint broken yellow lines by the crossing and bend into Long Drive
• remove 9 parking spaces to improve safety and visibility.
