Safer Streets for Cooke Town
Site context
The site comprises a 1 km stretch of Wheeler Road Extension in Cooke Town. It serves as the main access route for the neighbourhood and includes several important amenities.
Issues
●This stretch faces several persistent challenges: inadequate street lighting, safety concerns, broken and uneven footpaths, and blackspots. ●Excessive vehicle speeds also create unsafe conditions for pedestrians walking or crossing the road.
Priority Interventions
●Upgrade footpaths to meet Tender SURE standards, ensuring a continuous and universally accessible design. ●Plant native vegetation in green verges and create tree pits to protect existing trees. ●Install street lighting and benches at regular intervals along the route. ●Provide pedestrian crossings and traffic calming measures at key junctions, including Milton Road, Davis Road, North Road, 2nd Cross Road, and 6th Cross Road. ●Create designated parking bays.
