Osborne Street and Toorak Road raised pedestrian crossing

Consultation

In late 2024, we consulted the Stonnington community on a proposed road safety improvement program (RSIP) designed to create safer streets for everyone where people are comfortable to walk, ride, connect with others and feel safe.

The suite of RSIP initiatives was informed by community requests, our Road Safety Strategy and known road safety hotspots.

Following the consultation and consideration of community feedback, Council endorsed a range of road safety improvement projects in June 2025, including constructing two raised pedestrian crossings in South Yarra - on Darling Street at the Toorak Road intersection and on Osborne Street at the Toorak Road intersection.
