A main road in Brisbane south will be blocked during peak hour on Tuesday as residents protest for improved safety at an intersection.

A group of up to 60 residents, some in costume, is expected to block the Montague Road and Victoria Street intersection in West End from 8am to 8.30am.

The planned protest will disrupt peak-hour traffic on the main road, including at least seven scheduled bus services from routes 60 and 192.

Greens councillor for The Gabba Jonathan Sri said the protest was to highlight the need for traffic lights to be installed at the intersection.
