STATE SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION ROYAL RANDWICK RACECOURSE HOTEL (SSD 5002) RESPONSE TO SUBMISSIONS ADDENDUM REPORT

Dear Ms Warton,

Thank you for your letter dated 23 September 2013 inviting Roads & Maritime Services (RMS), to provide comments on the subject proposal. The RMS has requested a joint Transport for NSW (TfNSW), and RMS response due to the proximity of the CBD and South East Light Rail project to the subject proposal.

TfNSW and RMS have reviewed the response to the Submissions Addendum Report and provide the following comments:

1. RMS does not support the proposed right turn movement from Alison Road into the roadway (Randwick Racecourse) at the Darley Street intersection. This right turn movement requires this signalised intersection to operate with split approach phasing, which will result in unacceptable delays and additional queuing for motorists and buses on Alison Road and Darley Street.

2. The vehicular queuing on the Racecourse roadway approach to the signalisation of Alison Road/Darley Street intersection likely to extend past the proposed internal exit driveways from the proposed development in the peak periods, which may block vehicles exiting these driveways. Further, vehicles turning right out of the proposed exit driveways onto the internal road network onto the access roadway may queue across the southbound lane (entry to racecourse) and potentially block vehicles entering the racecourse from Alison Road. The applicant should investigate suitable measures to mitigate this conflict and improve the efficiency for vehicles exiting the proposed exit driveways. Any identified measures should be referred to RMS for review and comment, prior to the Construction Certificate.

3. The hotel development and associated infrastructure must not encroach on or affect the NSW Government proposal for the CBD and South East Light Rail
