It is becoming increasingly difficult for a pedestrian to navigate either side of the new walkway/footpath to exit from the intersection of Sirius and Ocean drives, due to heavy traffic.

I nearly have a whiplash looking around at all the vehicles entering and exiting this intersection, with nil safety barrier when halfway across the road.

A pedestrian refuge island is required to solve this issue. 

I have contacted council in recent months, as advised by our local office and was fragrantly dismissed as the road is not wide enough.

I fear that a tragedy will occur before any action is undertaken.
