PEDESTRIAN SAFETY
In reply to the Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (24 April 2007).
The Hon. CARMEL ZOLLO (Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Road Safety, Minister Assisting the Minister for Multicultural Affairs): I am advised:
In May 2006, pedestrian safety was improved at Smart and Reservoir Roads at Modbury through the following treatments: pedestrian fencing was installed on all four corners of the intersection; the existing pedestrian walk-throughs were relocated to provide better visibility for pedestrians and oncoming vehicles, together with improved street lighting at these crossing points; and cycle lanes were incorporated on Reservoir Road.
After receiving a request for the installation of traffic signals, the Department for Transport, Energy and Infrastructure investigated a scheme involving the replacement of the existing roundabout with traffic signals, including signalised pedestrian facilities. This was evaluated and DTEI determined that it could not support the installation of traffic signals in this location at this time.
