Speed humps a ‘high priority’ for Cranbourne street

The City of Casey has confirmed they will install two flat-top road humps in Lesdon Avenue in Cranbourne.

The humps will be completed “within the next two to three years” according to manager city and asset planning at Casey, Keri New and come as part of the council’s annual Capital Works Program.

Ms New said the move has come on the back of the street being identified as an issue with regards to dangerous driving, despite the presence of chicanes already on the road.

“Vehicle speeds and crash history have highlighted this street being a high priority for additional speed calming devices to help slow traffic and improve safety,” Ms New said.
