THE switch has been flicked on new traffic lights at the intersection of Branyan Drive, Avoca Road and Dittmann Road.
The successful installation occurred just a week after a car crash at the site which caused substantial damage.
Divisional representative Councillor Steve Cooper said the incident illustrated why the Branyan Drive traffic lights were so important.
“The intersection of Branyan, Avoca and Dittmann Roads posed a significant safety risk,” Cr Cooper said.
“This was the highest priority issue which local residents told me they wanted to have addressed.
“Even despite the traffic incident just before the lights were due to be switched on, contractors finished the job about a month ahead of schedule.”
