Council is proposing to install a Raised Pedestrian Crossing near Hornsby North Public School on Old Berowra Road, Hornsby. The construction of Raised Pedestrian Crossing will provide a safe crossing location for pedestrians, especially school children and act as a speed reduction device within the school zone.

Key features of the proposal are:

• Provide a connection between the footpath on the eastern side of Old Berowra Road, with a new footpath constructed along the western side (School side) of Old Berowra Road between Link and Mittabah Roads
• Provide a safe crossing location for pedestrians, in particular school children and local residents
• Act as a speed reduction device within the school zone
• Remove the existing ‘No Parking’ zone currently operating as a ‘Kiss and Drop’ zone on Old Berowra Road (parents will be encouraged to park and walk)
• Relocate existing bus stop from school entrance to outside 93 Old Berowra Road (approximately 30 metres)
• Installation of ‘Give Way’ sign, delineation and ‘No Stopping’ signs in Marlee Street at intersection with Old Berowra Road.

A plan of the Proposed Raised Pedestrian Crossing is found in the document library.

Council invites your comments on the proposal by close of business Monday, 7 August 2023. The results of the consultation will be referred to the Hornsby Local Traffic Committee for consideration and recommendation to Council.
