Project update

Council has secured funding through the New South Wales Governments "Towards Zero safer roads program".

This project has been developed in consultation with the community since 2021 and has gone through multiple stages of feedback.

Across the life of this project we have:

  • Asked for your feedback on the design and subsequent changes two times.
  • Received 107 contributions from the community.
  • Spoken with business owners and residents directly.
  • Had 1,214 visitors to this page.

We aim to begin the road safety improvements in mid 2025. Throughout the course of road improvements, there may be some disruption to the current use of the road. However, traffic control will be in place to guide you through.

Terry Street is classified as a Regional Collector Road, connecting Jamberoo and Albion Park. The section between Wiley Street and Simpson Parade has been subject to several recorded crashes in recent years and is also subject to moderate-high pedestrian demand to cross the street.

About the project

The improvements to Terry Street under the Towards Zero Safer Roads Program include:

  • The installation of a roundabout at T-intersection of Terry Street and Hughes Drive
  • Implementation of one-way traffic flow within the shopping car park
  • Installation of a raised pedestrian crossing at Wiley Street
  • Constructing new infrastructure to be disability compliant
  • Installing shared use path links to each of the upgraded crossing points
  • Implementing left turn only on some side roads
  • Relocating the existing bus shelter.

FAQ

Terry Street between Wiley Street and Simpson Parade has been subject to several recorded crashes in the past five years. Council recently secured funding under the 2021/22 NSW Road Safety Program to improve road safety in this location.

There will be impacts to on-street parking, and in most blocks, parking will be retained on both sides.

Council aims to limit the loss of on-street parking, however, the installation of pedestrian refuges and blisters will result in the loss of some parking. This is to ensure compliance with pedestrian 'sight distance' requirements and to manage vehicular queue lengths and make way for the upgrades.

The total on-street parking loss as a result of this project will be confirmed at the detailed design stage.

Parking restrictions will be restricted to certain times of the day (i.e. 2h parking applies from 9am to 5pm only). Residents will be able to park without restrictions outside of the specified times. The times referenced above are example time restrictions only. Council’s Transport team will review the timed parking as part of the detailed design phase.

The traffic flow on Wiley Street has been considered to optimise road safety, increase parking and minimise impacts on adjacent residents. Additionally the proposed turn restrictions southbound on Terry St are to improve road safety at the location.

Chevron line marking is proposed outside of 33 Wiley Street for both 33 & 35 to place bins for collection concerns

The current proposal is reverse parking at this point in time. This may be revised as part of the detailed design phase.

To control traffic into the shops, and subsequently improve road safety in the area, a physical median has been installed to remove the right turn into the shop car park. The roundabout at the intersection of Smith Avenue/Terry Street can be utilised for traffic wishing to use the shopping centre car park from the north. Please see Figure 2 under the “Revised Project” tab for details.

All feedback from the community consultation will be forwarded to the design team for consideration. Once considered, the detailed design phase will commence. We will update this page when we reach the next stage.
