TRAFFIC & RANKS
North Parade, Mount Druitt
A rank assessment was recently conducted at the rank following concerns raised by taxi drivers.
Recommendations have been made to install clearer regulatory signage to accompany the ‘Taxi Zone’ sign; extend the 12-space rank to legally accommodate for 3 extra spaces; and to install a standard RTA ‘No Stopping’ sign at the west of the Taxi Zone to prevent taxis from blocking bus access at the nearby roundabout.
It is further recommended that an advisory sign be installed to ask drivers not to queue beyond the end of the taxi rank.
