Swan Hill Intersections

Council has resolved to further advocate to the State Government for improvements to the Murlong Street/McCallum Street intersection and the Gray Street/Campbell Street intersections.

Council cannot simply fix these intersections as they are State owned arterial roads, however, we are committed to partnering with the State Government to formulate solutions for these intersections to improve road safety and address community concerns.

Road safety statistics for these intersections do not typically collect data on near misses, property damage, or “other injury” accidents, so we are asking the community to share your personal experiences.

We are urging the community to help us advocate to the State Government for improvements to these intersections. We are asking individuals to report current near misses or accidents online by clicking below:

What the community told us:

We recently called for feedback from the community regarding two notorious Swan Hill intersections.

We have received invaluable feedback from our community with a total of 452 surveys completed, reflecting strong engagement from residents that are invested in the safety and efficiency of our roadways.

It is alarming to see from these crucial results how many incidents have occurred at these intersections and data that has been lost as a result of these accidents and near misses not being report to the Police.We appreciate the community participating in this consultation in supporting our advocacy efforts to enhance the functionality and safety of these intersections.

Council will use these findings to highlight and further advocate to the State Government regarding the importance of prioritising improvements to address traffic flow and safety issues in these key areas.
