Background

Corfu Street, between Bourke and Forbes Streets, is currently a 40km/h, one-way, westbound local street with one traffic lane and one parking lane.

The one-way westbound traffic arrangement of Corfu Street provides access to the Eastern Distributor (ED) from Forbes Street via Bourke Street. Residents have raised concerns about drivers using Corfu Street as a shortcut to the ED when there are queues on Bourke and William Streets.
