Why not think outside the box, extend Alcorn Street beyond Macgregor Street to open spaces behind houses on Macgregor and have a wide road reaching Broken Head Road?
Make that the only exit for all Suffolk traffic and entry from Lennox side.
Make Clifford Street the only entry for traffic from Byron side and no exits.
This will be convenient for larger vehicles like bus and trucks.
In reality vehicular traffic is not decreasing it’s the other way.
A little extra travel to exit Suffolk to Byron is a good price to pay.
I hope Byron Shire Council owns the land in question or may have to pay for it.
