Central Coast residents are invited to help shape the long-awaited Avoca Drive upgrade at Kincumber by having their say on proposed safety and efficiency improvements options.
To improve safety and reduce travel times the Albanese Labor Government is investing $100 million towards the upgrade project, while the Minns Labor Government is committing $30 million.
A current key feature of the overall design for comment includes providing two lanes in each direction on Avoca Drive between Boora Boora Road and Joalah Road.A new roundabout is also proposed at the intersection of Bungoona Road and Kincumber Street to further improve access.
Two options have been developed for the key intersection of Bungoona and Carrak roads, including split traffic signals at the Willesee Crescent intersection.
East of the town centre the proposal includes a new set of traffic signals at the intersection of Gunya Road and Tilba Street, combined with left in/left out restrictions at Davies Street on each side of Avoca Drive.
West of the town centre, the proposal includes a new set of traffic signals at the intersection of Algona Avenue, left in/left out restrictions at Island View Drive as well as restrictions to right-hand turns from Boora Boora Road onto Avoca Drive.
To discuss the upgrade options with the community, Transport for NSW team members will host drop in sessions at Kincumber Library on Tuesday 6 August from 9.30-11.30am and 4.30-6.30pm.
