Priority won't change

Gosford Council has resolved not to change the priority for traffic movements at the intersection of Burge Rd and Allfield Rd, Woy Woy.

A request for the changed priority came from local resident Ms K Caynes.

Ms Caynes said the southern section of Burge Rd was now a cul-de-sac.

Traffic entering and exiting the closed section of road had priority at the cross intersection of Allfield Rd.

Ms Caynes suggested that there be a change of priority so that traffic in the closed section of Burge Rd gave way to traffic in Allfield Rd.

Council's traffic committee stated that they were concerned that the potential for intersection crashes would increase if the priority movement were changed from Burge Rd to Allfield Rd.
