Veron Rd bus zone to be extended

Gosford Council has resolved to extend an existing bus zone 25 metres to the east on the northern side of Veron Rd between Hillview St and Shoalhaven Dr, Woy Woy.

The full bus zone be sign posted bus zone 8-9:30am and 2.30-4pm school days.

Bus operator Busways requested the extension to be able to accommodate three school buses to service the school.

Council invited property owners who would be affected by the decision to provide comments to be taken into consideration.

One owner responded that there were four vehicles, and possibly another within the next 12 months and a small boat in the future, that all required to be parked at the property.

The owner advised that the loss of about 10 metres of on-street parking in front of their property would severely limit parking options.

However, a report from council staff stated that extensive on-street parking was available elsewhere in the street.
