(2) When can residents expect these promised traffic calming measures to be installed.

(3) How long after the installation is complete will there be sufficient data to know if the intersection upgrade should go ahead or not.

Mr Steel: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1) Traffic calming measures on Shakespeare Crescent are part of a greater local area traffic management project. The design of this project was updated in 2020, although due to unprecedent events with bushfires and COVID-19, it has been delayed.

(2) The project is expected to commence in October 2020 and be completed by early 2021, unless further unexpected events occur.

(3) Transport Canberra and City Services will evaluate the effectiveness of the traffic calming measures on Shakespeare Crescent 12months after their implementation. Any modifications to the implemented scheme or additional improvements on the road will depend on the outcomes of this evaluation.
