The traffic island at the corner of Launceston Street and Hindmarsh Drive in Lyons has the lowered pedestrian crossing too close to the intersection. This means that when cars are waiting to turn right onto Hindmarsh drive, they completely block the crossing, making it difficult for pedestrians and bicycles to cross safely. I suggest moving the crossing at least one car length back, or removing the island completely from one car length back from the intersection to allow others to cross safely.
