No calming for Robin Cr

 

Gosford Council's traffic committee has recommended not installing traffic calming devices in Robin Cr, Woy Woy following recent traffic surveys.

A request had been made by Member for Peats Ms Marie Andrews on behalf of local residents in December last year.

In February, council adopted a recommendation from the traffic committee to carry out a traffic speed and volume survey on the road.

Northbound results showed 155 vehicles a day passed through with an average speed of 45kph, while southbound saw 245 vehicles a day pass through at an average speed of 44kph.

The traffic committee report stated that "these volumes and speeds are indicative of streets in the area and are well within acceptable limits considering the population density."
