TRAFFIC FEEDBACK WANTED FOR KEY INTERSECTION

The busy May Race week is giving residents the chance to see what issues lay at a key traffic junction in Warrnambool.

Council is exploring ways to improve safety and access along Moore Street between Rowley Street and Brierly Street, including the intersections at Cramer Street, Garden Street, Officer Court and the Warrnambool Racecourse entrance.

It is seeking public feedback to achieve this, from motorists, cyclists and pedestrians. 

Feedback closes on May 22 and can be given at council’s website or at a drop in session on May 13 at the Warrnambool Library.

Mayor Cr Ben Blain said Council wanted to hear from people who lived nearby or travelled through the area.

“Before detailed designs are developed, we want to better understand how people use this part of Moore Street and what they think would make it safer and easier to move through,” he said.

“We know this is an important connection for nearby residents, students, commuters and racecourse visitors, and it can become especially busy around school times and on race days.

“Some of the issues already identified include the difficulty of crossing Moore Street on foot or by bike, as well as challenges turning right onto Moore Street during busy times.”
