Since being elected, I’ve made it a priority to tackle local safety issues head-on. I’ve listened to residents and spoken with Councillors and the relevant Ministers about the urgent need for action on Marion Street.

I have worked with Council to pursue Federal Black Spot funding to improve safety at the Marion and Edgar Street intersection. Council submitted an application in 2025, which is currently under review by Transport for NSW, with an outcome expected in 2026.

I have also raised concerns directly with the Minister for Roads, Jenny Aitchison, and with Transport for NSW about the need for stronger enforcement at the William and Marion Street intersection. Following this advocacy, Transport for NSW has lodged a request for a red-light camera on my behalf.

Importantly, progress has already been made at the Marion and Manahan Street intersection. Through all three levels of government working together, $220,000 was secured under the 2024–25 Australian Government Black Spot Program to install a raised threshold, a pedestrian refuge, and improve turning angles.
