Sight distance improved at carpark exit

A 31-metre No Stopping restriction will be placed on the southern side of Wellington St, Umina, across the entry and exit driveways for the Oscar St carpark.

The recommendation was made to Gosford Council by its Local Traffic Committee after a resident requested the installation of the parking restrictions.

According to a report from the Local Traffic Committee, there was enough space between the driveways to park two vehicles and that when vehicles were parked there they compromised sight distance for vehicles using the exit driveway.

An investigation by council staff resulted in advice that the implementation of a parking restriction would improve safety.
