Hurstville Road, Oatley
Mentions
- Proposed speed hump, kerb blisters, signage and road-safety improvements west of Ada Street; line markings also approved near Judd Street.
- Residents near the affected roads may experience earlier vehicle activity, from 3.00am or 4.00am depending on the location.
- The project may improve pedestrian safety and vehicle speeds, while detailed design will consider heavy-vehicle movements and the existing painted chevron island.
- The current intersection was assessed as operating at Level of Service F. A roundabout could improve traffic flow, but funding, design, land and construction feasibility remain unresolved.
- The trial may reduce daytime service impacts but could increase early-morning noise for nearby households.
- New speed humps, signage, line markings and STOP controls will change driving conditions in Carlton, Kingsgrove and Oatley.
Decisions
Six-month trial for earlier public-place litter collection
Earlier start times were approved for litter-collection vehicles at specified locations in Beverly Hills, Hurstville and Kingsgrove. Residents must be notified before the trial, feedback options must be provided, and the General Manager may revoke the trial if repeated breaches occur. A review report is to be presented after six months.

Hurstville Road, Oatley traffic and pedestrian improvements

The project may improve pedestrian safety and vehicle speeds, while detailed design will consider heavy-vehicle movements and the existing painted chevron island.
Park Road corridor roundabout investigation
The forum noted the Park Road corridor traffic-study outcomes and recommended further investigation of the design and geometric feasibility of a roundabout at Park Road, Wyee Street and Bayview Street. Supplementary right-turn restrictions at Ramsgate Road and Park Road are also to be considered.
The current intersection was assessed as operating at Level of Service F. A roundabout could improve traffic flow, but funding, design, land and construction feasibility remain unresolved.
