Latest news
November 2023 – Work to progress on Bulli town centre improvements
The Bulli community and visitors to the area will soon experience safer journeys through the town centre with safety improvements that reflect community feedback.
We have heard the community’s concerns about the extension to clearways on the Princes Highway and will put these changes on hold while we progress the remaining safety improvements.
Work on the town centre improvements to benefit residents and visitors in and around the Bulli town centre will start next year. Transport will monitor the improvements to determine if the clearways need to be extended long term.

Community consultation
2021 Community consultation
Transport for NSW developed options in response to community feedback in 2019 to improve traffic efficiency and reliability of the Princes Highway at Bulli and Lawrence Hargrave Drive at Thirroul.
In June and July 2021, we asked for feedback on the proposed options. A large amount of feedback was received during the eight weeks of public consultation. We received 821 submissions on the Bulli proposal and 903 submissions on the Thirroul proposals.
We engaged an external consultant, as an independent third party, to review and analyse the submissions and prepare reports. The Feedback Summary Report (PDF, 1.95 MB)for Bulli is now available.
We thank everyone who took the time to provide feedback about their experiences travelling in and around Bulli town centre. The feedback provided will help us consider how best to proceed.
2019 Community consultation
In October 2019, we engaged with stakeholders, road users and the community to gain an understanding of peoples’ experiences living and travelling in and around Bulli and Thirroul town centres, their concerns about the existing road corridor and ideas about future transport needs.
The investigation aimed to identify constraints and issues including on-street parking, traffic queuing and delays in peak periods. The investigation and feedback from the community will help Transport identify options to reduce travel times, improve road safety and maintain the look and feel of both town centres.
We had a strong response, receiving a total of 2,539 comments on the interactive map, made by 735 community members, and 50 email responses. Following analysis, 3627 individual issues were identified across all the feedback received.
The consultation summary report is now available.
