Signalised Intersection Intersection of Donald St & Stockton St - options include: - Installation of traffic lights - Extended shared zone - Relocation of one or both crossings and construction of kerb extensions
Cycling, as a recreational activity and an alternative transit mode, is a low-cost, sustainable and healthy way to travel
In order to facilitate a cycle friendly environment, it is important to improve the cycle network with safer and better connected paths, which are designed to minimise conflicts with pedestrians and vehicles.
