Traffic Management
We provide a Traffic Management function to address numerous traffic issues on behalf of the community. These traffic issues include:
- Traffic flow
- Traffic safety
- Parking management
- Road safety
- Pedestrian facilities
- Bicycle facilities
The above traffic issues are assessed by the local Traffic Committee. To address these issues, we use the following approaches:
- more engineering improvements, e.g. roundabouts, speed humps
- greater Police enforcement
- continued education of the community
- encouraging other road safety stakeholders to work with Council to improve road safety
If you would like to have an input please either write to the General Manager, Canterbury City Council, PO Box 77, Campsie 2194 or contact the Customer Service Centre on 9789 9300.
Traffic Committee
The Traffic Committee meets on a monthly basis and was formed by the Roads and Traffic Authority of New South Wales to advise Council on all traffic matters affecting the City. It comprises representatives from Council, Roads and Traffic Authority, Police and local State Members of Parliament. The department of Motor Transport and State Transit Authority provide advice as required. The Committee investigates and reports on traffic related matters.
