Project information

Project features

The intersection of King Georges Road and Canterbury Road currently operates at capacity during peak periods. Queues of vehicles can exceed the existing right turn bays, blocking through traffic.

The project will widen Canterbury Road to provide additional right turn lanes on to King Georges Road in both directions. This will improve traffic flow, reduce congestion and improve safety.

The proposed improvements include:

  • widening Canterbury Road on the both eastern and western approaches to provide additional right turn lanes to King Georges Road
  • changing the existing dual left turn signalised slip lanes on Canterbury Road for vehicles turning into King Georges Road to a single give way slip lane
  • realigning of the left turn slip lanes on Canterbury Road in both directions to provide better vision for motorists preparing to turn left
  • adjusting the existing entrance into Wiley Park and construction of a retaining wall on the revised road boundary
  • relocating of existing impacted underground/overhead utilities and equipment, including an existing speed camera on the Canterbury Road
  • constructing new pavement where required as a result of the changes to the intersection.

Community engagement

In December 2017, Roads and Maritime invited feedback on proposed improvements at the intersection of Canterbury Road and King Georges Road, Wiley Park.

After considering all responses, along with the proposal’s aims and design requirements, we have decided to proceed with the proposal unchanged.

We will continue to keep the community and stakeholders informed as the project progresses.
