Traffic volume in Sylvania (2224)

Sylvania (2224) sits within the Sutherland local government area. Traffic volumes here reflect the intersection of local trip generation (residents driving to destinations) and through-traffic (vehicles using Sylvania streets to access other destinations). High through-traffic is common on suburbs that sit between major roads, a pattern that raises noise and pollution levels without necessarily benefiting residents.

High traffic volumes on roads bordering or passing through Sylvania have two principal effects on buyers: noise (particularly at night and during morning peak) and air quality (tailpipe particulates and nitrogen dioxide). Properties directly fronting high-volume roads in Sutherland typically trade at a 3 to 8 percent discount to equivalent properties on quieter streets, a discount that is sometimes difficult to recover at resale.
