Somerville: Local Area Traffic Management - Black Spot Project

  • Project typeRoads, Streetscapes and Footpaths
  • Project value$1,220,000

The Somerville Local Area Traffic Management project sought to improve safety and reduce the potential for crash occurrence on the local road network through a combination of traffic calming treatments and a proposed 40 km/h Area speed limit.

Somerville has several road safety risk factors such as wide roads which can encourage higher vehicle speeds and shopping, community, and sports facilities which contribute to additional vehicle movements.

The scope of works included a series of raised safety platforms, speed limit reduction, line marking and signage. Community consultation was undertaken during project development.

Construction commenced in June 2025.
