The City of Melville plans and delivers road and traffic projects through its capital works program, community requests and strategic priorities to support safe, accessible and well-connected local areas across the City.

Through Safe Streets Melville, the City delivers traffic calming, safety improvements and road investigations to improve safety, access and movement.

Projects are informed by traffic data, safety assessments and community feedback. The City considers how streets are used, identifies potential risks, and assesses opportunities to improve safety and access for all road users.

Projects, plans and opportunities to provide feedback are outlined below.

The Burke Drive Traffic Study is being undertaken to better understand how traffic moves through the area and identify opportunities to improve safety and access for all road users. The study is considering traffic volumes and speeds, movement patterns, safety and crash history, and how the street is used by residents, visitors and other road users.

Community knowledge and lived experience are an important part of this process and provide valuable local insight to complement the technical investigations being undertaken as part of the study.

Two community workshops were held on 10 and 17 June 2026, providing participants with the opportunity to share their local knowledge and experiences, discuss traffic issues and explore potential traffic treatment options. A total of 45 community members attended the workshops.

Community consultation has now concluded, with the online survey closing on 17 July 2026. The City received more than 370 survey responses, in addition to feedback gathered through the community workshops.

The independent consultant is now reviewing and analysing all feedback received. The findings will be used alongside the technical investigations to inform the development and assessment of potential traffic management options for Burke Drive. A community engagement outcomes report will be prepared and shared once the analysis is complete.
