Advice

The Committee unanimously supported the recommendation.

Background

State Transit has requested the extension of the existing Bus Zone restrictions in Crown Street, Surry Hills to facilitate safe access as part of the operation of higher capacity articulated buses stopping at the existing bus stop.

The changes to bus stops were chosen by State Transit (Transport for NSW) in regards to services requirements. The City installs bus zone restrictions surrounding bus stops in accordance with the NSW Road Rules 2014.

In this case, the bus changes have been in operation since December 2018 and remain without signposted Bus Zone restrictions as the previous proposal was deferred pending the provision of further information.
