5.2.7 Two Way Angled Slow Points / Blisters<br />

Two way angled slow points or blisters are recommended to be installed on Maltarra Road, Myall<br />

Avenue, Alawoona Road (two treatments). These horizontal deflection methods will be suitable <strong>for</strong> these<br />

Roads/Streets as it will help reduce speeds and reduce traffic volumes with the blister island option<br />

increasing pedestrian safety.<br />

5.2.8 Pedestrian Refuges<br />

An existing pedestrian refuge is located on Karri Street to cater <strong>for</strong> users <strong>of</strong> the Linear Park cycling track.<br />

A new pedestrian refuge is to be located on Myall Avenue opposite the Linear Park cycling track, thus<br />

giving cyclists and pedestrian users a point to cross at Myall Avenue at the end <strong>of</strong> Linear Park.<br />

5.2.9 Driveway Links<br />

Driveway links are where an original carriageway has been narrowed and the streetscape redefined so<br />

as to give the appearance <strong>of</strong> a closed portion <strong>of</strong> road. This may include a combination landscaping,<br />

installation <strong>of</strong> kerbs and using distinctive pavement giving the impression from a distance the road is<br />

closed but when approached it should be easily discernable that the road way is open. It is<br />

recommended that a driveway link is employed on Carcoola Road (south <strong>of</strong> its junction with Noora<br />

Crescent), with a one way driveway link installed on Alawoona Road south <strong>of</strong> the Myall junction.<br />

5.2.10 Police En<strong>for</strong>cement<br />

As discussed previously, the above listed LATM traffic control treatments will assist in reducing vehicle<br />

speeds and improving the amenity <strong>of</strong> the study area, however the issue with hoon / irresponsible driving<br />

will be difficult to mitigate unless proactively en<strong>for</strong>ced by police. Council will encourage increased police<br />

en<strong>for</strong>cement. The speed data obtained from the traffic counters and feedback from the community<br />

questionnaire survey could be used to assist police in identifying key locations and time <strong>of</strong> day <strong>of</strong> where<br />

and when the greatest <strong>of</strong>fences occur.<br />

A summary <strong>of</strong> the recommended traffic management measures to be implemented on each street in the<br />

study area is shown in Table 6.<br />
