Consultation has concluded
The City of Perth has received complaints that vehicles using Via Torre Lane are causing property damage when they enter off Aberdeen Street. This narrow section of the laneway is constrained by buildings on each side of the entrance which makes it difficult for service trucks to manoeuvre safely.
A potential solution to this issue is to convert the traffic flow through the laneway from a two-way operation to a one-way operation as shown on the map below:

The proposed one-way conversion would have the following benefits:
Vehicles would enter off Newcastle Street where the entrance to the laneway is wider and has more room to manoeuvre.
The risk of property damage would be further reduced if vehicles only exit at Aberdeen Street.
Road safety will be improved including reduced parking congestion and conflicts between multiple vehicles using the laneway.
Improved movement and behaviour of traffic through and within the laneway.
Project Update:
The conversion to one-way will consist of the following measures that will be installed by Main Roads WA:
• Two straight arrows in the laneway showing the direction of traffic flow - Completed • Two ‘No Entry’ signs on Aberdeen Street to prohibit vehicles turning north into Via Torre Lane - End of April
