Planned
These works are expected to begin in late 2026.
Why we’re doing this
This cycling connection will be an important part of our bike network, helping make it safer and easier for people walking and riding.
We developed the concept plan based on your feedback from our consultation in May 2023, which Council approved on 21 August 2023.
What we’re doing
The project includes:
- a new cycleway on the northern side of O’Dea Avenue between Bourke Street and Gadigal Avenue
- a protected intersection for people riding at O’Dea Avenue and Joynton Avenue that will allow bike riders to bypass the traffic lights
- a new pedestrian crossing at O’Dea Avenue near Joynton Avenue.
Impacts and disruptions
- Relocating the eastbound bus stop for route 348 from outside Kennards Storage on O’Dea Avenue to nearby Bourke Street just north of Elizabeth Street
- Removing the eastbound bus stop for routes 320 and 392 outside Kennards Storage on O’Dea Avenue – these services remain unaffected and commuters can use alternative stops nearby
- Removing time restricted parking spaces along O’Dea Avenue and Bourke Street
- Relocating the car share space on O’Dea Avenue to Bourke Street
- No trees will be affected by these works
