Requests Refused by NSW Traffic Branch

Several requests from the Municipal Council were declined by the NSW Police Traffic branch. The Manilla RSL asked to relocate the angle parking sign on Court Street near the new Club rooms, but the sign’s current position is the regulation distance from the intersection. Moving the sign would reduce parking on that street. A second request for a marked pedestrian crossing on Manilla Street near the Manilla and Charles streets intersection was also refused.
