Council is seeking expressions of interest for the renaming of the following road located within the Lithgow Local Government Area.
Existing Road Name: Unnamed
Extent description: The unnamed road runs parallel to Chifley Road, Clarence, at the base of Scenic Hill
Proposed Road Name: Pit Pony Lane
Reasoning: This part of the city was settled by families who have a long and proud history of working in the Vale of Clwydd Coal Colliery. The resident’s family have a close connection to the pit ponies used in mining in the Lithgow area and were kept in paddocks adjoining these properties. There is general support to recognise the mining history in this locality by naming this road Pit Pony Lane, Clarence.
Should any person wish to have input into the renaming of this road, then written submissions will be accepted by Council up until Friday 31 December 2020. Please send your submissions to PO Box 19, Lithgow 2790. Any new proposals made should be in accordance with Section 6.7 of the NSW Addressing User Manual.
Please do not hesitate to contact Mrs Samantha Brown who is available on Monday and Tuesday on (02) 6354 9999, in Council’s Infrastructure Services Department, should you have any further queries in relation to this matter.
