Give Way sign approved

A Give Way restriction will be placed in Victoria Rd at its intersection with Park Rd, Woy Woy, according to a report by Gosford Council.

The report also stated that No Stopping restrictions would be placed on the northern side of Park Rd between Victoria Rd and the eastern side of the driveway to house number 29.

A request had been made to council to investigate the provision of a Stop sign in Victoria Rd at Park Rd to eliminate the incidence of vehicles turning left at high speeds.

The request also asked for council to investigate the provision of No Stopping between the driveway to house number 29 Park Rd and Victoria Rd to allow waste service pickup, which is compromised by parked vehicles.

The report to Council stated that an inspection revealed that Victoria Rd entered Park Rd at a slanted angle and drivers turning left could be unaware of vehicles leaving the driveway 15m to their left.

The report stated that sight distance was adequate at the location and a Give Way sign was seen as the preferred treatment to improve safety.

The report also stated that the placement of No Stopping restrictions easterly from Victoria Rd to the eastern side of the driveway to house no 29 Park Rd would improve sight distance.
