Project updates

Balcombe Road proposed no stopping restrictions

To provide a safer cycling experience for riders of all ages and abilities, we’re proposing to implement no stopping restrictions at specific times on Balcombe Road between Reserve and Charman Roads (excluding the angle parking at Seaview shops).

The new restrictions will provide more on-road space for riders. The times proposed are targeted around busy school commuting hours. This is to improve connectivity for local school communities and to encourage the use of sustainable transport.

The proposed changes are in response to advocacy from resident groups after reported near misses between cars and students. Aligning with the Bayside Integrated Transport Strategy 2018 – 2028, theme three of the Bayside 2050 Community Vision, and the Council Plan 2021 – 2025, Balcombe Road is also included in the Principal Bicycle Network (as identified by the Victorian State Government).
