Background

Hume City Council completed a Local Area Traffic Management (LATM) Study of the Craigieburn North area bounded by Craigieburn Road, Aitken Boulevard, Hume Highway and Malcom Creek.

Residents were invited to provide details of traffic issues within the LATM study area. The information provided highlighted 211 issues and was used to prepare a proposed traffic management plan. In May 2022 the plan was presented to residents, local businesses and the public transport authority to provide feedback.

Feedback was received from 18 people about the proposed traffic management plan through an on-line mapping tool, email and phoning the responsible traffic engineer. This information, together with further research by Traffic Engineering was used to review the traffic management plan and additional investigations were conducted in order to develop a Final Traffic Management Plan.

Outcome

At the Council meeting on Monday, 14 November 2022, the Craigieburn North LATM Study Report and Final Traffic Management Plan was adopted. The plan provides information on all proposed traffic treatments.
