Lucy and Labor to make notorious Collinswood intersection safer

A notorious Collinswood intersection will be upgraded to a roundabout under a Malinauskas Labor Government, amid growing community concerns following multiple car crashes and near misses.

Labor will invest $200,000 to install the roundabout to fix the notorious and unsafe intersection at Howard and Rosetta streets.

City of Prospect identified the area as an “accident blackspot” at a recent workshop, citing “continued vehicle crashes”.

Locals have reported speeding, collisions, and hoon driving through the intersection – one reported witnessing two car crashes in the space of two weeks – and have repeatedly asked for a solution to be found.

Together, with the community, Labor Candidate for Adelaide Lucy Hood has found a solution and advocated for a commitment to ensure the delivery of a safer intersection.

This community should not have to feel unsafe or scared of passing through a notoriously troubling intersection.

That is why a Malinauskas Labor Government will fix this issue.

Quotes attributable to Labor Candidate for Adelaide Lucy Hood

Safety concerns surrounding this intersection have been raised with me time and time again, locals want this fixed.

I believe in the importance of not just showing up but following up and providing solutions.

Upgrading to a roundabout will not only slow traffic down, but make our community feel safer.
