Roundabout completed

A $3 million upgrade of the intersection of Charlton St and Victoria Rd, Woy Woy, has been completed.

Member for Gosford Cr Chris Holstein said the new roundabout would improve safety for motorists and will also help improve traffic flow.

"This intersection previously had a very tight turn, which was difficult for buses and larger vehicles to use," Cr Holstein said.

"The new roundabout removes the right of way confusion and improves sight distance, making it easier for motorists using the intersection.

"As part of this upgrade, about 50 metres of Charlton St and 60 metres of Victoria Rd was resurfaced with new signs and linemarking installed.

"Work started on site in April and finished ahead of schedule, which is great news for the local community," Cr Holstein said.

The work was carried out by Gosford Council on behalf of Roads and Maritime Services.
