Traffic calming

Page Street has a modal filter, which acts to calm the street by reducing through-traffic.

The modal filter was introduced in 1977, via an order of the Council of the then City of Collingwood.

The modal filter was initiated by a local resident, Marion Miller, who was later a Collingwood Councillor.

Local champion

If Streets Alive Yarra had been around in the 1970’s, Marion could have been one of our ‘street champions‘.
