Bicycle Strategy

What needs to be done?

A number of design concepts for Beulah Road are to be developed that incorporate safety requirements and the needs of residents, cyclists, pedestrians and motorists.

What can you to do?

Council is seeking input from Beulah Road residents on what design concepts are acceptable, and what will enhance the neighbourhood. As a resident of Beulah Road you will have valuable knowledge on what concepts will work, and also how any changes will affect you.

It is intended that the Working Groups will meet a number of times from September to November with the final concept designs
provided to the wider Beulah Road community for comment in late November.

The Beulah Road community will choose a preferred design, or choose not to proceed with the project.

The chosen design will be presented to Council for endorsement in January 2015 to allow construction to be completed on Beulah
Road in mid June 2015.

The Working Groups will be supported by a technical team comprising engineers from Council and DPTI who will advise on the
feasibility of the concept designs.

Two engagements followed the Working Group engagement. These were the Beulah Road Bike Route from 1 to 15 December 2014 and the Beulah Road Bike Route (West of Gurrs Road) from 26 February to 13 March 2015.

The Beulah Road Bike Route engagement was open from 1 to 15 December 2015. The Working Group had developed suggested traffic calming measures and changes to the road environment. The design concepts were developed for Beulah Road, East and West of Gurrs Road and were presented to the community during this period. Council sought community feedback on the proposed solutions.

Council considered the initial engagement results and endorsed works comprising of a driveway link, central medians and line marking on the East section of Beulah Road. Council endorsed improvements to the roundabouts on the West section and to consult with these residents on potential flat top road humps.

Council then sought community feedback on the suggestion of a 40 km/h speed limit or the installation of flat top road humps during the Beulah Road Bike Route (West of Gurrs Road) engagement.
