Key Information
We invite you to give feedback about the proposed design for Martins Avenue and Ocean Street (intersection).
Concerns of residents about this location:
- General safety and movement for pedestrians, bike riders and vehicles
- High volumes of vehicular traffic
- Vehicle speed negotiating the intersection
Proposed design and traffic calming:
- Removal of existing pedestrian refuge island, kerb ramps and speed hump
- Construction of a raised intersection treatment with garden beds and feature tree
- Modification of traffic flow on Martins Avenue to left only at Ocean Street with a modal filter for bike users to continue west along Martins Avenue
- New median island and “No U-turn” sign in Ocean Street
- New reinforced concrete footpath pavement
- One additional street parking space. Further design refinements to improve cyclist safety through the intersection have changed the on-street parking arrangement.
