Macquarie & Davey Streets

These streets provide important connections for people travelling to and through Hobart. In 2021 the Department of State Growth released plans for creating a dedicated bus lane on the Southern Outlet to improve the efficiency of public transport, making it a more attractive option than driving. Since 80% of traffic coming from the Southern Outlet is heading to Hobart rather than beyond, catching the bus is a realistic option for residents south of Hobart. The plans include bus priority on Davey and Macquarie Streets, which require changes to on-street parking.
