Wentworth Shire Council is seeking feedback from the Dareton community to submit a proposed High Pedestrian Access Area (HPAA) of 40 km/h to Transport for New South Wales.
The proposed HPAA for Dareton runs the length of Tapio Street, approximately from Devonport Street to Burtundy Street.

Wentworth Shire Council is also seeking to extend the footpath between Neilpo Street and Mitchell Ave.
Council’s Community Road Safety Officer will be available outside Walkers IGA, 31-37 Tapio Street, Dareton to engage with community members and to encourage direct feedback on the following dates and times:
Monday 25 November 2024 from 11am – 1pm
