Crossing upgrade delivered

An upgraded children’s crossing outside Mosman Public School is making walking to school safer and more enjoyable for students, after construction finished just in time for Term 1, 2024.  

Transport for NSW’s Executive Director for Active Transport Kathryn Crestani joined Mosman Mayor Carolyn Corrigan and Mosman Public School Principal Steve Connelly to visit the completed project. 

The work on Myahgah Road, near Belmont Road, included upgrading a pedestrian crossing to a raised pedestrian crossing (wombat crossing), to help slow down traffic to minimise the risk to pedestrians, as well as improved stormwater drainage and fencing. 

The project was funded by a $122,111 grant from Transport for NSW’s Get NSW Active Program, with the remainder financed through Mosman Council’s capital works program.  

The Get NSW Active program provides local councils with funding for projects that create safe, easy, and enjoyable walking and bike riding trips.
