Member for Robertson Gordon Reid has met with Transport for NSW representatives to discuss solutions for the intersection of Wards Hill Rd and Empire Bay Dr at Empire Bay.
In 2023, an online community petition was launched calling on all levels of government to address the intersection.
The petition attracted more than 700 signatures and was discussed in the Australian Parliament.
Reid said he is committed to addressing the problem intersection.
“The community is calling on all levels of government to work together to find long-term solutions to address the intersection,” he said.
“I met with Transport for NSW at the start of this year because I am committed to identifying solutions for the community.
“The meeting was constructive, and we have identified challenges that must be overcome before work can start to address the congestion and safety issues at the intersection.
“I thank the community for their patience while we work on potential solutions and ask that they continue to support the online petition, and to encourage others to.”
