Traffic effects everyone:

Residents should have a say

Council is responsible for the maintenance and management of local roads. However, many proposed changes to local traffic conditions need to be approved by Transport for NSW and/or the Roads and Maritime Service. 

In 2017, Council decided to remove the representation of a Councillor on this committee. 

We believe some local traffic matters are more that technical in nature and that some traffic matters involve residents safety and convenience interests. 

We will:

1) Introduce the ability for local residents to attend and speak about their traffic-related issues and concerns at the Lane Cove Traffic Committee (As can be done with Willoughby Council).

2) Re-instate the representation of a Councillor to the Traffic Committee to better advocate for the needs of our residents.
