I came to Kurrajong Road Narre Warren in February 1995 and in the years since I have seen this road grow from a few houses to a fully developed road. For our street and all surrounding streets, we have a reliable bus service running down our street seven days a week til ten PM at night. In our street we have 6 areas assigned as parks where local kids and adults enjoy the open areas and the kids ammenities. About half way down our street is Oatlands Primary School which has grown from 200 kids to 1000 kids in the years I have lived here. Also in our street is a convenience store with ample off street parking, which sells a variety of goods including hardware, groceries, and take away meals. Our street boasts underground cabling, so we don't have ugly overhead wires and ugly poles. I love living in the clean air and openness that this street has.

Nice review :) Does it get busy in the street during the week days with parents going to the primary school? does this have car parking problems or traffic congestion?

Hi Pure.Krome,
The local primary school is set back from the roadway to allow angle parking for parents who drop off and pick up their kids. Approaching the school from either direction is a constant 40 kph zone and sure it gets a little clustered around 8.50am and 3.30pm, but if you can name a suburban primary school that is traffic problems free at those times, I would be very interested.

Regards Dave

Hi Dave :) Unfortunately i don't think i can :) With lots of kids coming and going, do u find they leave rubbish around. I live next to a river and 2 big open parks, and i find that hooligans and kids just like to dump stuff on the road all the time, which is very upsetting.
