Lobby your council to build a new pedestrian crossing
The purpose of the guide is to help you advocate to your local council to install a ‘pedestrian (zebra) crossing’. Some of the documents referenced in this guide are specific to NSW, however the principles for dealing with councils are universally applicable.
Zebra crossings are essential safety treatments that allow people to walk around their neighbourhoods safely and easily; in particular children, their parents, the elderly and people with some disabilities. Without zebra crossings many people cannot safely cross streets to access important services and facilities that support daily life like bus stops, shops and parks. Zebra crossings also calm traffic and make streets quieter and more enjoyable for everyone.
