At it's meeting on 21 November 2022 the Local Traffic Committee considered feedback on the alternative options for the Wardell Road 'no left turn' restrictions and made the following recommendations to Council:

1. The statutory 10 metres of ‘No Stopping’ be installed on the southern side of Ewart Street immediately east of Riverside Crescent;

2. A concept design for traffic calming in the form of kerb extensions at the Tennyson Street/Riverside Crescent and Riverside Crescent/Balfour Street intersections be prepared for consideration by Traffic Committee;

3. A concept design for an upgraded pedestrian refuge in Riverside Crescent at Ewart Street be prepared for consideration by Traffic Committee;

4. TfNSW be requested to consider a 30 km/h speed limit trial in Ness Avenue, Balfour Street, Tennyson Street and Riverside Crescent between Wardell Road and Ewart Street; and

5. The following proposals be deferred pending the completion of the concept designs for traffic calming and an upgraded pedestrian refuge:

a) The existing ‘No Left Turn’ restriction be replaced with a ‘No Left Turn Vehicles Over 6 metres’ restriction at Wardell Road/Riverside Crescent subject to approval by TfNSW;

b) A ‘No Left Turn 7:00-9:30am Mon-Fri, Bicycles Excepted’ sign be installed in Riverside Crescent at Tennyson Street to restrict westbound movements subject to approval by TfNSW;

c) 20 metres of ‘No Parking 7:00am-9:30am Mon-Fri' be installed on the western side of Wardell Road south of Ewart Street along the frontages of 281-285 Wardell Road; and

d) The BB lines in Riverside Crescent at Wardell Road be adjusted by relocating 1 metre northeast for a length of 10 metres.
