LOCATION

REFERRAL TO COMMITTEE
NSW Police Force.
ISSUES
Driver behaviour reducing road safety.
PREVIOUS CONSIDERATION BY COMMITTEE
A report was tabled at the 1 February 2019 meeting of the Sutherland Traffic and Traffic Safety
Committee outlining a proposal to install speed cushions in Cooriengah Heights Road, Engadine
(STR003-19).
COMMENTS BY INVESTIGATING OFFICER
Speed cushions were installed in Cooriengah Heights Road in September 2019, as per the endorsed
proposal tabled to the Sutherland Traffic and Traffic Safety Committee in February 2019.
Post installation, Council received reports from NSW Police Force, Council staff and members of the
public that southbound drivers were regularly driving around the speed cushion installed near 72
Cooriengah Heights Road and onto the wrong side of the road. Police also raised additional concerns
that vehicles are required to start to turn to move around a concrete median island at the point where
the speed cushion has been installed, creating further safety concerns at this location.
A site visit conducted between NSW Police and Council staff to observe the reported issues and
discuss potential solutions resulted in the following actions:
Council staff proposed a range of relocation measures to NSW Police for consideration,
including:
a) Relocate the speed cushion 22 metres north to the frontage of 70 Cooriengah Heights
Road;
b) Relocate the speed cushion 22 metres north to the frontage of 70 Cooriengah Heights
Road and install flexi bollards along the centre dividing line for approximately 8 metres;
c) Relocate the speed cushion 22 metres north to the front of 70 Cooriengah Heights Road,
install a new speed cushion in the parking lane and install flexi bollards along the centre
dividing line for approximately 8 metres.
d) Relocate the speed cushion 22 metres north to the front of 70 Cooriengah Heights Road,
install a new speed cushion in the parking lane, install a new speed cushion in the
northbound travel lane and install flexi bollards along the centre dividing line for
approximately 8 metres.

Council staff will monitor the effectiveness of the speed cushions and investigate whether raised
thresholds are a suitable long term option at these locations.
Police considered the options presented above the recommended that Option (a) is the most suitable
in the short term. Should the existing driving behaviour of vehicles entering the opposing travel lane
continue, the options outlined above may be explored further.
FINANCIAL / RESOURCE IMPLICATIONS
The proposed measures can be fully funded within existing budget allocations.
