and decided to trial a new treatment

to accentuate the wombat crossing

and attract motorists’ attention.

Earlier this year, in-pavement flashing

LED lights were installed in the road

pavement immediately in advance of

the crossing. These LEDs are solar

powered with back-up batteries and

operate during certain times of the

day and week to coincide with peak

pedestrian activity times on Victoria

Crescent.

Once the LEDs were installed at

this crossing, Council has generally

received positive feedback both

from pedestrians using the facility

and the community. It is observed

that compliance rate has certainly

increased as witnessed by the road

users.
