Is there confirmation yet about EV charging station being installed in Templestowe Village?

Share Could the pedestrian crossing sign at Anderson and Wood Street be prioritized in the upcoming project implementation? This has been a long-awaited safety improvement for our neighborhood. During busy evening hours, it often takes up to five minutes to cross the road, and residents—including young children—are forced to rush across with real concerns about oncoming traffic. It’s a daily safety risk, and we believe timely action would make a significant difference. Thank you for considering this important request. on Facebook Share Could the pedestrian crossing sign at Anderson and Wood Street be prioritized in the upcoming project implementation?
