Pedestrian refuge planned

A proposed pedestrian refuge for Rawson Rd is expected to be endorsed for construction by council at its meeting of September 5.

Council's traffic committee recommended the plans be endorsed for the refuge between the railway level crossing and Waterview St, Woy Woy.

The provision of a pedestrian refuge was considered for inclusion in the 2005-06 Traffic Facilities Program following a meeting on July 4 last year, with a detailed plan requested prior to construction.

The plan has since been prepared and local residents have been consulted with "no objections to the proposal".
