Following an extensive six-week community consultation on three concept designs for the Coast and Transition zones of the Transforming Jetty Road project, Council has agreed to proceed with design principles that focus on pedestrian safety while maintaining Jetty Road's current street operations and traffic movements.

This includes:

• The installation of traffic lights with pedestrian crossing at the intersection of Jetty Road and Moseley Street to give pedestrians clear, protected times to cross and reduce the risk of collision
• A speed limit reduction to 30km/h along the length of Jetty Road and part of Colley Terrace
• Footpaths and roadway at the same level from the Jetty Road junction with Sussex Street, Moseley Street to Elizabeth Street and along Colley Terrace to Hope Street
• Installation of new continuous footpaths and mountable kerbs along parts of Jetty Road
• Juperana stone pavers for footpaths along the length of Jetty Road
• Additional greening and trees where possible.

The corner of Jetty Road and Colley Terrace will remain open to all vehicle traffic.

Durham Street will remain accessible via a left hand turn from Jetty Road and will still be a one-way road in a northerly direction towards Augusta Street. Vehicles on Jetty Road will be unable to turn right into Durham Street due to the new traffic lights on the corner of Jetty Road and Moseley Street.

A total of 25 car parks will be removed across the entire Jetty Road precinct, which includes City, Transition and Coast zones, and parts of Colley Terrace, Moseley Street and Durham Street, to enable the installation of the new traffic lights, to comply with road regulations and to increase greenery.

More than 3,000 on and off-street car parks remain available in the Jetty Road precinct for residents and visitors to use.

Tram and bus operations remain unchanged.
