Waverley Council is seeking the views of local residents and investigating traffic issues on a section of Leichhardt Street south of MacPherson Street, following requests from locals in the area.

Please see a map of the study area, and the section of Leichhardt Street under investigation, which is highlighted in green in the image below.

Traffic calming measures on Leichhardt Street may affect residents on adjacent streets as well. Your response will help Council staff better understand the preferences of residents and form part of a preliminary analysis.

Your input will be considered alongside further technical work which is required to determine:

a) The need for traffic calming and related infrastructure treatments

b) The potential scale and extent of any treatments, and

c) The potential design of any treatment

Traffic calming will likely focus on Leichhardt Street near Barclay Street. Approval would also be required from Council in further consultation with Transport for NSW, prior to any changes being implemented.
