Executive Summary

The Local Traffic Committee is primarily a technical review committee and is not a Committee of Council. Local Traffic Committees operate under delegation from NSW RMS who are responsible for traffic control on all New South Wales roads. Their role is to advise Council on traffic control matters that relate to prescribed traffic control devices or traffic control facilities for which Council has delegated authority.

It is a requirement for Council to formally adopt the recommendations from this Committee prior to action being taken. The recommendations were supported unanimously by the Committee.

This Business Paper was prepared prior to the meeting on 5 December 2018. Due to the nature of items which will be considered a late memorandum with the recommendations will be circulated for resolution at the meeting.
