Laneway to be closed
Gosford Council has resolved to close an unnamed laneway between Beach St and Ridge St, Umina.
The proposed closure was welcomed in a petition with 16 signatures.
The closure was initially proposed by local residents who requested that bollards be placed in the laneway to stop vehicles speeding down the lane, and also to stop trucks backing up into Springwood St.
The residents provided two options including a closure in the laneway near the rear of 60, Beach St, or blocking the laneway off at the other entrances into the laneway.
Council's initial discussion with resident's confirmed that a mid-block closure was favoured.
