Cyclists & Walkers: Sign Up to Demand a Safe Hogbin Drive Crossing!

We need your help immediately to push the Coffs Harbour City Council to install a safe pedestrian crossing over Hogbin Drive in front of St John Paul College.

With over 1,100 students, our school is on a major, increasingly busy arterial road. Hundreds of students walking or cycling to school must cross Hogbin Drive during the most congested and dangerous times of the day. Even with a reduced speed limit, the sheer volume of traffic makes crossing a near-impossible, life-threatening gamble. I am gravely concerned that it is only a matter of time before a serious injury or fatality occurs.

I have submitted a detailed letter to the Council as part of the Draft Active Transport Plan advocating for a dedicated zebra crossing with safety barriers, a pedestrian overpass, or a tunnel.
