School Crossing safety improvements

Council will begin work in Brighton Street, Banksmeadow, in front of the Banksmeadow Public School to improve the safety of the children’s pedestrian crossing.  Complaints about the crossing were subject to a report and inspection by the Local Traffic Committee.  The Committee which is comprised of the representatives from the RTA, the Local Police and the two State Members of Parliament, have made a number of recommendations to Council which will be implemented immediately and carried out during the school holidays.  The safety of the many children who use the crossing on a regular basis is paramount.
