The sole exit to the western section of Highland Park is at the Northwood Road and Hammonds Plains Road intersection. A single exit limits the possibility of safe evacuation for all residents west of Chalamont Drive, in the event of fire, flood, or any number of potential risks. A second exit will benefit all commuters along Hammonds Plains Road. As an arterial roadway with an 80km/hour speed limit, it is beneficial to reduce the congestion at the Northwood Road intersection during peak hours.
