The Spit East Road upgrade in Mosman, which commenced in October 2018, has entered stage 2A of its work plan in March 2019. As a result, access to this area will be limited until the project’s completion in June.
The upgrade’s progress, however, has been on schedule and locals will soon be able to benefit from the following facilities:
Stage 1A | new bus bay, bus shelter new laneway by the foreshore | completed |
Stage 1B | new bike hoops, waiting area seats new landscaping, trees & garden beds | completed |
Stage 2A | new parking area, signages new footpaths to the commercial area | March to April 2019 |
Stage 2B | new paving, additional landscaping | May to June 2019 |
“The objectives of the Spit Road streetscape upgrade are to enhance pedestrian safety and accessibility, mitigate flooding, enhance the landscaping and amenity of the area, and improve access to public transport,” as cited in the upgrade’s report.
Funding for the Spit East upgrade comes from the B-Line project sponsored by the State Government. The Council had a series of consultations with the public since 2016 to determine what should be prioritised in the upgrade.
