About the project
Prior to the upgrade, the intersection of Enoggera Road and Moran Street was a priority-controlled intersections with a stop sign on Moran Street.
The Enoggera Road and Moran Street intersection experienced a high crash rate with nine recorded accidents between 2016 and 2021, all of which have resulted in medical treatment or hospitalisation. Seven of these incidents involved motorists turning right out of Moran Street and right out of Lloyd Street colliding with vehicles travelling on Enoggera Road. This could be attributed to inappropriate gap selection due to high traffic volumes, extended wait times and poor sightlines of vehicles travelling on Enoggera Road.
The Enoggera Road and Moran Street intersection upgrade is jointly funded by Brisbane City Council and the Australian Government through the Roads to Recovery program.
