MONTHLY COUNCIL MEETING
Dubbo City Council has voted not to introduce a 40kmh speed limit in the City’s Central Business District (CBD).
The decision came at Monday night’s monthly Council Meeting in which a rescission motion rejecting the rezoning was passed.
Dubbo Mayor Cr Allan Smith confirmed the proposal to provide a 40kmh speed zone generally bounded by Bligh, Cobra and Darling streets was not adopted.
“Plans were submitted to the Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA) earlier in the year and the proposal went on public display,” he said.
“However, councillors have voted against the implementation citing it as unnecessary expenditure in what is already a heavy traffic area.”
