Woollahra Council announce one lane of New South Head Rd to be exclusively used for Range Rovers

LUXURY LANE: Traffic gridlock on New South Head Rd in Sydney’s east could soon be a thing of the past, at least for Range Rover drivers.

Woollahra Council has today confirmed that one lane of the notoriously congested road will be “exclusively reserved for Range Rovers.”

“This is about safety and efficiency,” said a council spokesperson.

“Range Rovers are wider, heavier, and more entitled than other cars, so it just makes sense they should have their own lane.”

When complete early next year, the new “Range Rover Only Lane” will stretch in both directions from Vaucluse to Edgecliff.

Drivers not in Range Rovers who use the lane face fines of up to $1500.

“This is so overdue,” says one Vaucluse father of three. “It will make the school pick up and drop off so much quicker and easier.”

“Last week I got stuck behind a Toyota Corolla and a Mazda for almost 3 minutes.”

“We shouldn’t be forced to mingle with those types of cars.”
