Reduced speed limits in Minnamurra and Jamberoo: TfNSW press release

Published on 24 September 2024

Motorists will soon experience safer journeys on Riverside Drive in Minnamurra and on Jamberoo Road in Jamberoo with the speed limits set to be reduced from next week.

A Transport for NSW (TfNSW) spokesperson said the speed zones were reviewed following a community request and in consultation with NSW Police and local councils, and in accordance with the NSW Speed Zoning Standard.

“The speed limit on Riverside Drive at Minnamurra will be reduced from 80 km/h to 60 km/h between Fig Hill Lane and Federal Street,” the spokesperson said.

“The speed reduction will make the full length of Riverside Drive consistently 60 km/h, resulting in a travel time increase of about 27 seconds.

“The speed zone review was initiated by the community and found that the reduced speed of 60 km/h is necessary to improve the safety of motorists and other frequent road users including cyclists and pedestrians.”

The spokesperson said the speed limit will also be reduced to 60 km/h providing a consistent speed zone on Jamberoo Road from Jamberoo Mountain Road at Jamberoo to Terry Street at Albion Park.

The speed zones are expected to be installed from 30 September on Riverside Drive and 8 October on Jamberoo Road, weather permitting. Electronic signs will be on display to advise of the speed zone changes for one week prior to installation and one week after.
