In 2022, as part of the Manningham and Hampstead Gardens LATM, we asked you if you would support an area-wide 40km/hr speed zone in your local area. Many of you responded in support of this speed reduction (60%). Given the impact of this speed zone, we wanted to ensure that this question wasn't overlooked as part of the wider LATM plan engagement.

We knew safety was important to you and we wanted to confirm your support for a 40km/hr area-wide speed zone on local roads within Manningham and Hampstead Gardens.

We proposed to:

• Apply a 40km/hr speed zone on local roads in these two suburbs
• Install traffic signs to indicate the speed zone change throughout both suburbs

Please see the map below showing the proposed 40km/hr area.

The survey closed Sunday 14 May 2023. Please see the engagement summary below.

We asked residents of Manningham and Hampstead Gardens, if they supported the proposal for a 40km/hr area wide speed reduction.

Do you support a 40km/hr speed reduction in Manningham and Hapstead Gardens?

At the Council Meeting on 13 June 2023, Council decided to postpone this decision until the 5086 Local Area Traffic Plan implementation of physical treatments, such as raised intersections, had progressed further in these suburbs.
