Walking & cycling improvements at St Peters & Premier lanes, Darlinghurst
We’re improving safety and access for people walking and riding along these laneways.
What we’re doing
St Peters and Premier lanes have narrow footpaths that force people to walk on the road. We’re creating a shared zone to improve safety and access for people walking and riding. In a shared zone people walking have priority and there is a 10km/h speed limit for vehicles.
Work includes:
- coloured road pavement to distinguish it as a pedestrian area
- raised treatment near the intersection with Rosebank Street
- swapping sections of parking from the southern to the northern side
- reducing the speed limit to 10km/h
- providing contra-flow bicycle access to allow people to ride in both directions
- providing 2 new parking spaces.
