Northside Living: Transport for NSW is reducing the speed limit from 60km/h to 50km/h on Barrenjoey Road from Beaconsfield Street, Newport to Crane Lodge, Palm Beach on 7 August following a Road Safety review that reported 46 crashes between Jue 2019 to June 2024.
Independent Member for Pittwater Jacqui Scruby said that the reduction in speed was a response to both data and community concern.
“The former Member for Pittwater requested Transport for NSW undertake this review for lower speed limits, with some community groups calling for a drop in speed to reflect the similar drops in speed from Avalon to Palm Beach.”
