Council is proposing to change some of the parking restrictions in Peats Ferry Road and in Hyacinth Street. We want to get the balance right and would like your feedback.

Council has received complaints in relation to parking occurring in Hyacinth Street too close to the intersection with Peats Ferry Road.

The Proposal

A review of the site identified that the existing “No Stopping” regulation needs to be extended to provide adequate sight distance for drivers and pedestrians at the intersection. Council has also identified that the existing “No Stopping” restriction in Peats Ferry Road, north of Hyacinth Street, is unnecessary and this area can be returned to all-day parking.

The following parking restrictions are proposed:

1. Extend existing “No Stopping” zone in Hyacinth Street to be 20m long on the approach to Peats Ferry Road.
2. Remove existing “No Stopping” zone in Peats Ferry Road, north of Hyacinth Street, and revert that section of road to all-day parking (18.5m).
3. Adjust the existing “Bus Zone” in Peats Ferry Road to be 30m long.

A plan showing the proposed can be found in the document library.

Council invites your comments on the proposal by close of business Thursday, 11 April 2024. The results of the consultation will be referred to the Hornsby Local Traffic Committee for consideration and recommendation to Council.
