Traffic improvements on Bunnerong Road, Pagewood

Latest news

June 2025 – Work complete

Work has been completed on the Bunnerong Road and Birdwood Avenue traffic improvements project.

Project information

Background

Transport has improved safety and traffic flow around the Bunnerong Road and the Birdwood Avenue intersection by:

  • removing right turns from Birdwood Avenue into Bunnerong Road
  • removing right turns from Bunnerong Road into Birdwood Avenue
  • widening the pedestrian refuge on Birdwood Avenue for safer crossings
  • creating two new ‘No Stopping’ zones from 6am to 7pm, Monday to Friday along the northbound side of Bunnerong Road
    • just north of Birdwood Avenue
    • before the bus zone south of Birdwood Avenue.

Benefits

Change to access into and out of Birdwood Avenue will improve safety for pedestrians and road users by reducing lane changing and weaving, and reducing the risk of collisions caused by right turns.

New ‘No Stopping’ zones will:

  • improve bus access to the bus stop to the south of Birdwood Avenue
  • improve traffic flow by efficiently using all existing lanes and reducing queueing at Botany Street, resulting in more reliable travel times along Bunnerong Road.

Next steps

We plan to start work in mid-2025 and will update the community before construction starts.
