Council decision

22 July 2021

At its meeting on Tuesday, 20 July 2021, Council decided to support the recommendation of the Local Traffic Committee. We will proceed with the permanent full road closure of Ferris Lane between Whites Creek Lane and Ferris Street, Annandale.

Community feedback informed this recommendation and is summarised in the Engagement Outcomes Report.

Our next steps are to:

  • Prepare a Traffic Management Plan for approval by Transport for NSW
  • Construct a new kerb and gutter, footpath and grass verge to close off Ferris Lane between Whites Creek Lane and Ferris Street, Annandale. Funds have been committed in the current financial year. Residents will be notified of the construction schedule closer to the date.
  • Facilitate an introduction between the creator of 'Ferris Lane - Magic Lane' and those who expressed interest in helping to manage a public green space. We'll be in touch with more details when this has been arranged.


We'll continue to keep this page updated as the project progresses.
