Ivy and Lander Streets New traffic Island - Until 13 May 2013

In January 2013 the City consulted with you in relation to traffic changes that were proposed as part of the Abercrombie Street upgrade between the Lawson Street and Shepherd Street intersection in order to receive some feedback on the changes to improve safety and pedestrian amenity in the area. Following this consultation with the community and the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) the following changes have been proposed to further improve safety and pedestrian amenity in these areas.

Under Section 116 of the Roads Act 1993, the City of Sydney is seeking approval for proposed traffic changes to improve safety and pedestrian amenity in the area.

The changes include:

The proposed one-way southbound on Ivy Street between Lander and Abercrombie Streets has been changed to a one-way northbound on Ivy Street between Lander and Abercrombie Streets.

. Provide a right turn ban from Abercrombie Street (eastbound) to Ivy Street (south);

• Construction of a traffic island at the intersection of Lander and Ivy Streets to support

the one-way southbound on Ivy Street between Lander and Abercrombie Streets.

We would like to hear your views about the proposal. Feedback can be provided by email to Adam Lander, Community Engagement Coordinator, alander@cityofsydney.nsw.cjov.au or by post to City of Sydney, GPO Box 1591, Sydney NSW 2001.

The City welcomes community feedback and you are encouraged to make a submission. Please note City staff does not assume support or opposition if you choose not to provide a submission on the proposal.

Submissions must be made in writing, quoting reference number 2013/029493, before 6pm on 13 May 2013. Submissions may be made available to the public if the City receives a request under the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009.

City staff will review all submissions on the proposal and if supported, the proposed traffic changes will be considered for endorsement by the Traffic Committee. It is noted some of these treatments are also subject to assessment and approval by the Roads & Maritime Services.

To make a submission or for more information about the project, please contact Adam Lander, Community Engagement Coordinator, on 02 9265 9526 or email alandercityofsydney.nsw.gov.au
