Council, together with the Department of Transport and Planning, is reviewing the speed zone of High Street, Yea.
We are proposing the speed zone be reduced from 50 to 40 km per hour, from where the central median starts at the eastern and western end of High Street, Yea (Goulburn Valley Highway).
This review follows a request made to Council by local residents to further improve the safety of High Street.
Council is inviting feedback from the community on the proposed speed zone change.
How to provide your feedback
Community members can provide feedback on the proposed change to the speed zone by:
All feedback must be received by midnight on Sunday 25 June 2023.
What’s next?
The review process involves consultation with the community, Department of Transport and Planning and Victoria Police.
Council will consider the safety implications and community feedback before a final decision is made on the speed zone change. An update will be provided to the Yea community once the consultation period has closed.
