About the project

Council is planning further improvements in Croydon Road near Church Street, Croydon. The proposed works will improve pedestrian and motorist safety and address residents’ concerns about speeding and driver behaviour. Please note that these works are in addition to the intersection improvement works at Church St at Croydon Rd which were approved by Council in February 2019.

Proposal for community comment


  • Construct pedestrian refuge in Croydon Road
