The beach is generally pretty crowded, but the local traffic actually winds right down. The streets are quiet, there are actual parking spots to be found and Bondi Junction is a pleasant place to shop. I believe this is primarily because all the locals head out of town. But many return for “the show” that Sydney turns on every year on New Year’s Eve. You can feel the energy levels have increased in the last couple of days in the lead up to New Year’s Eve. But soon, the celebration of the year that was will be behind us…and the intense traffic will return.

Some days it is really the pits.

Bondi has become very congested with traffic in recent times.

So I am a little perplexed as to why there seems to be endless “intrusive” roadworks going on in the Bondi area. It has been going on for months and tonight several streets I drove along in a very small part of Bondi, had roadworks and traffic jams etc going on.

Why is the decision made to do roadworks in several neighbouring streets at the SAME time in one of the country’s most densely populated suburbs?

Can anybody pleeyze explain this decision-making by Waverley Council or the RTA or whoever?
