Design Changes Since Consultation
Since the Consultation in 2008 a number of revisions have been made to the proposals for the corridor. The following design changes have been made to this section:
Design Change 003
- To the north of Albion Street, the original proposal for resident's parking at the rear of properties has been revised to provide "Parking at any Time" in the carriageway. The existing pedestrian refuge will be replaced with an uncontrolled crossing and a footway buildout. The right turn lane will also be amended to suit.
