Supporting local business
We’re proud to support the many local businesses that make Clyde North a vibrant place to live.
We recently enlisted the help of Sandi from Curtain Ideas, located within the Clyde North Business Park to fit out our site office with new blinds.
Sandi said, “It’s great that the project is supporting local businesses. Once works are complete, it will be much easier for customers to reach our store.”
While construction is underway, shops and businesses in Clyde North are open as usual and they appreciate your continued support. It’s more important than ever to shop local, and we’re encouraging our team and the wider community to back local traders whenever they can.
Community and business feedback
Design option development
In March 2023, we asked the community and local businesses about how they were using the intersection as well as their views on safety, traffic flow and what we should consider in our planning and design options.
More than 1,800 community and business surveys were completed, and over 90 pieces of feedback were provided on our interactive map:
- 96% of community respondents and 95% of business respondents support an upgrade
- 87% of community respondents have concerns with the current intersection. When asked what concerns they have (multiple choice), the top responses were traffic flow (78%), safety (70%), road user behaviour (58%), and travel times (49%)
- 88% of community respondents rated traffic flow as poor or very poor, 9% said fair, and 3% said good or very good
- 92% of community respondents rate the current walking and cycling paths at the intersection as very poor or poor.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to provide feedback. For further information on what we heard, view the Community and Business Consultation Summary (PDF, 2.9 MB).
