We plan to make changes to Wallath Road to improve visibility and driver safety.
Residents are concerned that cars parked along the bend of Wallath Road, makes the road narrower. This forces drivers to move into the centre of the road to get through the bend. The parked cars also make it harder for drivers to see oncoming vehicles and increases the risk of head-on crashes with cars coming from the other direction.
We are proposing to:
- add a centre line through the bend to help guide drivers to stay in their lanes
- paint broken yellow lines (no stopping ta all times) around the bend opposite 12 Wallath Road.
The broken yellow lines will end 6 metres south and 17 metres east from the driveway of 11a Wallath Road. This will require removing 3 parking spaces.
