Mail zone moved again

Gosford Council's traffic committee has stated that a "mail zone" which was previously next to the Ettalong Beach Post Office in the Rocks Arcade was removed due to a change of direction by Australia Post.

The council adopted a traffic committee recommendation on July 3, that a mail zone be provided on the southern side of Ocean View Rd, Ettalong Beach, 40 metres east of Memorial Ave.

Australia Post had asked for the provision of the Mail Zone to coincide with the relocation of the Ettalong Beach Post Office to The Rocks Arcade.

The Peninsula Chamber of Commerce raised concerns regarding the resultant loss of one on-street parking space.

The traffic committee stated that, with this in mind, Australia Post had asked that the mail zone be relocated to the northern end of The Rocks Arcade in place of an existing No Stopping zone.

The mail zone on the southern side of Ocean View Rd, Ettalong Beach has now been relocated to the northern end of The Rocks Arcade and one hour parking has been restored on Ocean View Rd in place of the relocated mail zone.
