What Happened?
- Trial Installation: The road humps were installed to address speeding concerns.
- Monitoring Results: During the trial, traffic speeds decreased by nearly 30%, showing a significant improvement.
- Community Feedback: Residents were invited to share their thoughts on the road humps.
- 86% of Forrest Hill Avenue residents supported retaining the humps.
- 55% of residents from surrounding streets within the estate also supported the initiative.
Based on these results, a report was presented to the Local Traffic Committee, comprising AlburyCity, NSW Highway Patrol, the local State MP’s office, and Transport for NSW. The committee supported keeping the road humps.
What’s Next?
- The current flat-top road humps will stay in place temporarily with permanent installation of asphalt road humps to be completed in the 2025-2026 financial year.
This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to creating safer streets for everyone in our community.
