About the project
Brisbane City Council upgraded the London Road and Stanbrough Road intersection at Belmont as part of the 2020-21 Australian government Black Spot Program.
The Black Spot Program is part of the Australian Government’s commitment to reduce crashes on Australian roads. The program aims to improve road safety by implementing upgrade measures at each black spot location.
Between July 2013 and May 2020 there were six reported crashes at the intersection, all of which resulted in hospitalisation. The majority of crashes at this intersection occurred as a result of road users on London Road failing to give way to through traffic on Stanbrough Road.
The upgrade included replacing the existing stop signs on London Road with a roundabout. The roundabout will improve safety for all road users by providing a coordinated and controlled traffic flow through the intersection as well as improving visibility and awareness of vehicle priority.

The project involved:
- installing a roundabout at the intersection
