Residents may see new traffic-calming infrastructure and line-marking changes, subject to funding and design.
Public-place litter collection time trial
A six-month trial was approved to move some litter-collection vehicle start times earlier, including starts from 3.00am or 4.00am at locations in Beverly Hills, Hurstville and Kingsgrove. Affected stakeholders are to be notified before the trial begins.
Residents and businesses may experience earlier collection activity and associated vehicle noise.
Park Road corridor investigation
The outcomes of the Park Road corridor traffic study were noted. Further investigations will assess the design and geometric feasibility of a proposed roundabout at Park Road, Wyee Street and Bayview Street, with further consideration of dedicated pickleball courts, operational issues and possible right-turn restrictions at Ramsgate Road and Park Road. Future proposals are to be reported to the Local Transport Forum before implementation.
Potential intersection changes, parking, accessibility, noise and traffic restrictions remain under investigation and are not yet final 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.
Residents near the affected roads may experience earlier vehicle activity, from 3.00am or 4.00am depending on the location.
Hurstville Road, Oatley traffic and pedestrian improvements
The proposed speed hump, kerb blisters, signage and related road-safety works west of Ada Street were endorsed for detailed design, subject to Traffic Program capital funding. Line markings at Hurstville Road and Judd Street were approved for installation as shown in the report.
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.
Topics
Traffic and road safety program
Multiple local traffic projects were approved or advanced, including works in Oatley and Carlton and investigations along the Park Road corridor.
These projects may change local traffic conditions, pedestrian safety and vehicle restrictions.
Earlier litter-collection operations
The approved trial brings collection start times forward at multiple roads, including Forest Road, Queens Road, McMahon Street, Woodville Street and Dora Street in Hurstville, and several roads in Beverly Hills and Kingsgrove.
The trial may reduce daytime service impacts but could increase early-morning noise for nearby households.
