Pedestrians and motorists travelling in Towradgi will experience safer journeys with a new school zone being introduced this month.

A 40 km/h school zone will be introduced for Wollongong Flexible Learning Centre on Towradgi Road, the Princes Highway, Caldwell Avenue and John Street to improve safety for the students, community and motorists.

The school zone will operate during the standard morning school zone hours of 8am to 9.30am.  To better align with the school’s schedule, the afternoon operating hours will be 1.30pm to 3pm.

The new speed zone will be in effect from 27 January 2026.

Member for Wollongong Paul Scully said “The school qualified for a school zone as it directly accesses a public road and met the requirements of the NSW Speed Zoning Standards.”
