Gisborne, Fisher Street school crossing

As part of Council’s 2024-25 Capital Works Program, a raised safety platform (wombat crossing) will be constructed to replace the existing school crossing on Fisher Street in Gisborne, opposite Gisborne Primary School.

Wombat crossings are designed to improve pedestrian safety and encourage motorists to slow down when approaching the crossing.

Road and car park closures will be in place at times around the immediate works area on Fisher Street during these works, with detours in place, to complete these works safely and efficiently.

The proposed works are scheduled to commence in early April 2025 and are expected to be completed by late April, weather permitting. These works have been strategically timed close to the school holidays, to minimise disruption.

This project is funded under the Australian and Victorian governments’ jointly funded 2023-2025 Road Safety Program (School Safety Improvement).
