Design A - one way westbound on Harris Street

Features - what the proposed design involved

• Install signage and road markings to change Harris Street to a one way westbound street, from Lutwyche Road to Arwin Terrace.
• Upgrade and relocate the traffic signals to:
  • fully control the right turn into Harris Street from Lutwyche Road
  • realign the signalised crossing further south on Lutwyche Road
  • create a new signalised crossing on Harris Street.

Benefits - why we are proposing the features of this design

• Improve road user safety by signalising the right turn movement into Harris Street from Lutwyche Road, to control the movement.
• Improve safety for all road users by removing the right turn movement out of Harris Street into Lutwyche Road, eliminating any potential for conflict.
• Improve safety on Harris Street by only permitting one way westbound travel for motorists, allowing more road space for motorists to navigate the narrow street.
• Improve connectivity and promote a safer environment for people walking through the area by relocating and creating a new signalised crossing and upgrading footpaths at the intersection.
• No land resumption required.

• New travel routes will be required for residents living on Harris Street, between Lutwyche Road and Arwin Terrace, to:
  • travel southbound on Lutwyche Road
  • travel northbound on Lutwyche Road
  • note: see 'Potential new travel route - Design A - Harris Street'.
• New travel routes will be required for residents living on Harris Lane to:
  • travel southbound on Lutwyche Road
  • travel northbound on Lutwyche Road
  • access Harris Lane from the north-west
