Raised markers for Lovell Rd

Gosford Council has resolved to install raised pavement markers through the S-bend in Lovell Rd, Umina Beach.

The raised pavement markers would "encourage lane discipline through the bend" according to a recent council report.

The NSW police service had asked that council investigate excessive traffic speed in the vicinity of the S-bend.

Local residents had raised concerns with the police regarding the speed of the traffic.

Council officers noted that a double centreline would result in a substantial loss of on-street residential parking as the pavement width was only 9.2 metres.
