1. Introduction
1.1 Background
The Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy for the North Sydney Local Government Area (LGA), identified the need to develop Local Area Traffic Management (LATM) action plans. These plans provide specific traffic and parking measures to maintain and improve traffic access and parking. There are seven LATM zones within the North Sydney LGA with three located on the west of the Warringah Freeway and four to the east, as seen in Figure 1.1.

Figure 1.1: LATM Zone Overview Map
Bitzios Consulting was commissioned by North Sydney Council to undertake an analysis of the four LATM zones to the east of the Warringah Freeway, including the following suburbs:
Cammeray (majority); Cremorne; Cremorne Point; Kirribilli; Kurraba Point; Neutral Bay; and North Sydney (partly).

This report focuses on LATM Zone 6, located in the eastern section of the North Sydney LGA. LATM Zone 6 is predominately comprised of Neutral Bay (majority) with areas of Cremorne (partial) Cremorne Point, Kurraba Point and North Sydney (partial). The zone is generally bounded by:
the Warringah Freeway to the west; Falcon Street and Military Road between Warringah Freeway and Glover Street to the north; Spofforth Street between Military Road and Boyle Street to the east; the coastline and suburb borders of Cremorne Point, Kurraba Point and Neutral Bay from Hunts
Lookout to Clark Road to the south; and Clark Road and High Street to the south-west.
The extent of LATM Zone 6 is shown below in Figure 1.2.

2.1 ScopeandMethodology
This study has been divided into the following key components:
review of LATM Zone 6 context and assessment of current traffic and transport issues; assessment of emerging issues and expected developments, modal shifts and changes in traffic and
parking demands in LATM Zone 6; summarising Council’s current list of traffic actions for LATM Zone 6; identification of additional traffic actions for LATM Zone 6 drawn from detailed analysis of principal-
supplied data and site inspections; development of a prioritised list of traffic actions for LATM Zone 6; and review of key on-street parking areas for LATM Zone 6, and development of a priority list for detailed
parking surveys.
The study relies upon data provided by North Sydney Council in conjunction with site investigations. Where data has not been available, potential traffic issues and modal conflict issues have been identified based on site observations and public feedback submissions by residents.
2.2 StudyObjectives
2.2.1 2013‐2023NorthSydneyCommunityStrategicPlan(2013)
The North Sydney Community Strategic Plan was developed by Council in consultation with the community of North Sydney LGA. This plan was revised from the identified priorities and strategies in 2009 for North Sydney to cover a 10-year horizon from 2013 to 2023.
The plan is a broad strategy for the whole North Sydney LGA and does not identify by individual wards. To provide unified vision across the whole North Sydney, the plan identified five key directions:
Direction 1 – Our Living Environment; Direction 2 – Our Built Environment; Direction 3 – Our Economic Vitality; Direction 4 – Our Social Vitality; and Direction 5 – Our Civic Leadership.
These key directions clearly categorise the community strategic goals for North Sydney by identifying the desired outcomes and the strategies in achieving these outcomes. The plan also identifies indicators, to measure the progress of the strategies. The relevant objectives from the CSP are:
1.2 Quality urban greenspaces; 2.1 Infrastructure, assets and facilities that meet community needs; 2.3 Vibrant, connected and well maintained streetscapes and villages that build a sense of community; 2.5 Sustainable transport is encouraged; 2.6 Improved traffic management; 2.7 Improved parking options and supply; 4.7 Community is active and healthy; and 4.9 Enhanced community safety and accessibility.

2.2.2 NorthSydneyIntegratedTrafficandParkingStrategy(2015)
The North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy was developed to address the identified traffic and parking issues and to rationalise the parking and traffic controls created by a range of factors, such as:
increase in car usage by the existing population; increase in the number of workers and visitors to the area; and increase in residential and commercial development in and around the
LGA.
The Strategy proposed to manage traffic and parking matters within the LGA is based on seven (7) LATM Zones. No changes to the existing 33 resident parking areas are proposed under the adopted Strategy, however; parking restrictions within each of the (7) LATM Zones will be reviewed. It also introduces the concept of a scoring tool to assess the existing traffic and parking conditions. For traffic, cycling and pedestrian facilities the scoring considers a range of criteria including safety, traffic volumes, speed, pedestrian and cyclist volumes, activity generators, parking occupancy, parking turnover and alignment with the objectives of Council's Community Strategic Plan. For parking facilities, the methodology considers the existing parking supply, the surrounding land uses that generate parking demand, and occupancy and turnover rates, which are used to determine the most appropriate controls to apply to the existing parking supply to manage parking demand and reduce transfer of parking demand to surrounding streets within an area.
The North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy was adopted by Council in May 2015.
2.2.3 NorthSydneyIntegratedCyclingStrategy(2014)
The North Sydney Integrated Cycling Strategy aims to provide a high quality built environment conducive to walking and cycling and to provide safe, accessible and connected walking and cycling connections along key strategic links. The strategy further aims to promote cycling as a sustainable transport option for North Sydney commuters.
The strategy assessed the existing cycling network and identified the issues, and subsequently identified upgrades required to mitigate the issues in unison with the North Sydney Community Strategy Plan.
Issues identified included:
incomplete cycling network connections; some difficult sections (e.g. steep grades) within the defined cycling routes; inconsistent and insufficient bicycle route signage; insufficient bicycle parking facilities; and the lack of safety associated with cyclists sharing road space with traffic.
The Integrated Cycling Strategy outlines five routes aimed at increasing the safety and connectivity of cycling infrastructure within the North Sydney LGA. Two key proposed routes were identified within LATM Zone 6 to increase the safety and connectivity of the cycling network of North Sydney. Figure 2.1 shows the proposed routes, Route 3 connecting Neutral Bay to Mosman and Route 5 connecting North Sydney to Cremorne.
Route 3 begins at the intersection of Spofforth Street and Rangers Road following Rangers Road before splitting to either follow Rangers Road onto Yeo Road or use Harrison Street and Wycombe Road to access Yeo Street. The route continues along the length of Yeo Street before turning into Bent Street and using Winter Avenue to access Alfred Street before crossing the Warringah Freeway.
Route 5 begins at the intersection of Murdoch Street and Rangers Road before heading South onto Murdoch Street, using Bannerman Street which turns into Harriette Street to access Wycombe Road. The route travels south on Wycombe Road before using Kurruba Road to travel west before turning onto Clark Road. Clark Road, which then turns into Broughton Street, is used to access Milsons Point Station with an underpass to the western side of the Bradfield Highway.
TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 5
The strategy also included an implementation plan with cost estimates, timelines, and processes for stakeholder involvement in taking these routes forward.
Where there are no formal facilities for cyclists, Council will consider the needs of cyclists when designing any new traffic or pedestrian facilities.
The North Sydney Integrated Cycling Strategy was adopted by Council in July 2014.

2.2.4 DraftNorthSydneyTransportStrategy(2017)
The Draft North Sydney Transport Strategy (NSTS) is proposed as Council’s guiding document for the delivery of its transport planning and management functions. This includes strategic transport planning, transport advocacy and the delivery of local transport projects.
The NSTS builds on the directions, outcomes and strategies detailed in North Sydney’s Community Strategic Plan 2013-23 (CSP) and Ecologically Sustainable Development Best Practice Project 2014 (ESD) to create an over-arching transport planning and management framework for the whole of Council.
The Draft North Sydney Transport Strategy is scheduled for public exhibition in July 2017 and adoption by Council in late 2017.
2.2.5 PublicDomainStyleManualandDesignCodes(2016)
The North Sydney Public Domain Style Manual and Design Codes were developed, outlining the approaches to implement the public domain infrastructure improvements in North Sydney. The North Sydney LGA was divided into eight different precincts types, with each precinct having a style and design guide to allow consistency and unison across the whole LGA. The North Sydney LGA precincts are shown in Figure 2.2.
The North Sydney Public Domain Style Manual and Design Codes were adopted by Council in November 2014 and amended in 2016.

3. ZoneCharacteristics
3.1 StudyArea
As previously mentioned, LATM Zone 6 is located in the northern section of the North Sydney LGA. LATM Zone 6 is predominantly comprised of Neutral Bay (majority) with areas of Cremorne (partial) Cremorne Point, Kurraba Point and North Sydney (partial). The zone is bounded by:
the Warringah Freeway to the west; Falcon Street and Military Road between Warringah Freeway and Glover Street to the north; Spofforth Street between Military Road and Boyle Street to the east; the coastline and suburb borders of Cremorne Point, Kurraba Point and Neutral Bay from Hunts
Lookout to Clark Road to the south; and Clark Road and High Street to the south-west.
The extent of LATM Zone 6 is shown in Figure 3.1.

3.2 LandUses
3.2.1 NorthSydneyLocalEnvironmentalPlan(2013)
The North Sydney Local Environmental Plan (LEP) 2013 aims to make local environmental planning provisions for land in North Sydney in accordance with the relevant standard environmental planning instrument under section 33A of the Act. It aims to promote development appropriate to its context and enhance the amenity of the North Sydney community and environment. Figure 3.2 shows the Land Use Zoning in the LATM Zone 6 area.

Figure 3.2: Land Use Zoning
TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 13
A large portion of the study area is defined as “Low Density Residential” with sections of “Medium Density Residential”, “High Density Residential”, “Mixed Use”, “Public Recreation”, “Infrastructure and Environmental Conservation”. Medium and High Density developments are found predominantly along the water front in Kurraba Point, along Military Road, to the east of the Warringah Freeway and off Ben Boyd Road, Wycombe Street, Spofforth Street, Rangers Road, Harrison Street and Yeo Street. “Mixed Use Development” dominates the land use on the southern side of Military Road with a section of “High Density Residential” near Warringah Freeway, and to the east of Rangers Road. “Public Recreation” areas are located mainly near the water front in Kurraba Point and Cremorne Point.
The LEP also dictates the heritage items and conservation areas. These are shown in Figure 3.3.

Four sections of conservation area existing in LATM Zone 6, these zones are the Whaling Road Conservation Area (Area CA21), Cremorne Conservation Area (CA03), Cremorne Point Conservation Area (CA06) and Kurraba Point Conservation Area (CA16). A large number of heritage items are also contained in the western and central section of LATM Zone 6 including:
educational facilitates; religious establishments; waterfront reserve; and a range of other properties.
3.2.2 NorthSydneyDevelopmentControlPlan(2013)
The North Sydney Development Control Plan (DCP) 2013 aims to ensure that the development positively contributes to the quality of the natural and built environments as well as the quality of the site and its context. The DCP aims to ensure that the objectives of Council’s 2020 Vision – North Sydney Community Strategic Plan are achieved.
The DCP consists of three parts:
Part A – General Requirements (The general requirement of information required prior to an application lodgement);
Part B – Development Controls (The development controls to be complied with prior to approval); and
Part C – Area Character Statement (Additional controls to be complied with for specific area).
LATM Zone 6 is located across Section 5: North Cremorne Planning Area and Associated Localities, Section 6: South Cremorne Planning Area and Section 7 Neutral Bay Planning Area. The Planning Areas are divided into smaller localities based on the corresponding land use, such as commercial areas, town centres, residential areas, and heritage conservation areas. The localities contained within LATM Zone 6 include:
Cremorne Town Centre (partial); Neutral Bay Town Centre partial); Military Road Island Neighbourhood; Murdoch Neighbourhood; Forsyth Neighbourhood; Kurraba Point South Neighbourhood; Neutral Neighbourhood; Whaling Road Conservation Area; Cremorne Point Conservation Area; Cremorne Conservation Area; and Montague Road Conservation Area.
The Planning Areas for LATM Zone 6 are shown in Figure 3.4.

3.3 RoadNetwork
3.3.1 RoadHierarchy
The Warringah Freeway borders the western side of the study area. Military Road is the primary east-west road, carrying traffic from Manly and the Northern Beaches towards Sydney and North Sydney.
Kurraba Road - Wycombe Road - Bannerman Street provides an alternative east-west connection from the Mosman area and further afield for traffic bypassing Military Road, when congested. Belgrave Street is also acts as an alternate route to the congested Military Road, carrying a reasonably high proportion of through traffic in peak periods.
Bent Street, Ben Boyd Road, Wycombe Road, Murdoch Street, and Spofforth Street are the primary north-south connections through the study area, with Ben Boyd Road particularly used by through traffic, local traffic, cyclists, and buses.
Due to topographical constraints, there are many other local “short cut” roads that weave their way through the area, some with steep grades and narrow pavement formations. An overview of the road hierarchy is shown in Figure 3.5. All following maps can be found in Appendix A.

3.3.3 SpeedData
Local roads in within LATM Zone 6 are posted at a speed limit of 50 km/h and Military Road is posted at 60km/h. 40 km/h School Zones are in operation between 8:00am-9:30am and 2:30pm-4:00pm on school days on selected sections of the following roads, namely:
Allister Street; Ben Boyd Road; Bydown Street; Montpelier Street; Murdoch Street; Rangers Road; and Yeo Street.
Historical speed data from 2011 to 2016 was analysed by calculating the “weighted average” of the hourly 85th percentile speed relative to the hourly traffic volumes. The results indicate the majority of locations, the surveyed 85th percentile speeds are below the respective posted speed limit. The location and results of the speed surveys are summarised in Table 3.2.

3.3.4 CrashData
Crash data was summarised for a five- year period from 2011 to 2015. Figure 3.6 shows a ‘heat map’ distribution of crashes within LATM Zone 6 for this time period, with the Warringah Freeway omitted from analysis. Clustering can be seen along Military Road, and connecting streets. The roads identified to experience the most crashes are:
Ben Boyd Road; Military Road (state road); Murdoch Street; Spofforth Street; and Wycombe Road.
Figure 3.7 shows the severity of crashes within LATM Zone 6 by location, noting that the Warringah Freeway has been excluded from the analysis. The data shows that there were two (2) fatal crashes within LATM Zone 6 between 2011 and 2015

The crash data summary presented below in Table 3.3 shows:
219 crashes were reported within the five-year period (2011-2015), with an average rate of 44 crashes a year within LATM Zone 6;
around 15% of crashes occurred during wet road conditions; of all reported crashes, there were 20 (9%) involving pedestrians; approximately 35% of the crashes were recorded along Military Road; 49% of the crashes reported involved casualties; around 42% of crashes occurred during AM (6am-9am) and PM (4pm-7pm) commuter traffic; and 26% of crashes occurred on the weekend.

Severity Total Crashes Wet Condition Pedestrian
Tow Away 112 19% 0
Injury 105 9% 20
Fatal 2 0% 0
Total 219 - 20
Crashes along council roads show clusters around key intersections along Military Road, Murdoch Street, Ben Boyd Road, and Spofforth Street, as can be seen in Figure 3.6 and Figure 3.7. It can be noted that the majority of recorded crashes occurred in and around intersections. Two fatal crashes occurred in the five year period, the relevant details are:
Crash #1 – 01/05/2014 occurred at the intersection of Military Road and Ben Boyd Road when a cyclist hit a bus; and
Crash #2 – 06/05/2015 occurred 100m south of Falcon Street on Merlin Street when a car hit a parked light truck.
Based on the crash data, key locations subject to more detailed analysis in LATM Zone 6 are Yeo Street, Murdoch Street, Kurraba Road, and Ben Boyd Road.
Yeo Street and Ben Boyd Road has 20 recorded crashed between 2011 and 2015. 11 occurred along Ben Boyd Road at or approaching Yeo Street. 6 involved the vehicle leaving the road and colliding with an object or parked car. 3 crashes involved a pedestrian. Several public feedback submissions raised concerns about parking causing narrow travel lanes, and for pedestrian safety along these subject roads.
Murdoch Street in the approach to Rangers Road has had 9 crashes during the study period. Five of these crashes involved an injury. There doesn’t appear to be any correlations between the crashes, however public feedback submissions show several concerns with intersection safety along this section of Murdoch Road particularly at Rangers Road.
Of the six crashes on Ben Boyd Road near Phillips Street three involved hitting a parked car. Four involved injuries. Public feedback submissions have raised concerns with intersection safety at this location.
Five crashes occurred between 2011 and 2015 on Kurraba Road near Hayes Street. These crashes occurred near the bend in Kurraba Road, with two crashes involving the vehicle leaving the road on the bend. Two of the crashes involved vehicles travelling in the same direction. Four of the crashes involved an injury to an occupant. Public feedback submissions show concerns for cyclist safety at this location on Kurraba Road, however, only one crash involved a cyclist.
Military Road has approximately 40% of all crashes that are within LATM Zones 5 and 6 occur on Military Road. Clusters of crashes can be seen at the western end of Military Road (57 crashes), near the Warringah Freeway, at the intersection with Ben Boyd Road (31 crashes), west of the intersection with Wycombe Road (23 crashes), the intersection of Rangers Road (14 crashes), and the intersection with Murdoch Street (25 crashes).

3.4 PublicTransportNetwork
3.4.1 BusRoutesandBusStops
Bus services run mainly along Military Road, with local bus routes travelling along Yeo Street, Ben Boyd Road, Rawson Street and Milson Road, Murdoch Street, Florence Street, Spofforth Street, and Wycombe Road. Two local bus routes operate through the study area. A map of the local bus routes are shown in Figure 3.8. Military Road carries many services from northern Sydney, connecting suburbs north of the study area, to North Sydney and the CBD.

TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 28
3.4.2 FerryRoutesandFerryStops
LATM Zone 6 borders Sydney Harbour at Neutral Bay and Mosman Bay. The study area has four ferry wharfs as seen in Figure 3.8, which are:
Neutral Bay Wharf; Kurraba Point Wharf; Cremorne Point Wharf; and Old Cremorne Wharf.
These wharfs provide access to and from Circular Quay, allowing access to Sydney CBD.
3.5 WalkingNetwork
North Sydney Council has provided a walking network throughout LATM 6 which allows pedestrians to access various public transport facilities as well as historic sites. North Sydney Council is working to improve pedestrian accessibility and make North Sydney more ‘walkable’. The Community Strategic Plan identified needs for improvements for pedestrian safety and sustainable transport. Further, pedestrian and cycle paths produced some of the highest dissatisfaction ratings amongst services for residents based on public feedback. Any traffic and parking strategies proposed as part of this study will consider the impacts to pedestrians.
3.6 CycleNetwork
North Sydney Council published a recommended cycling routes map throughout the study area, North Sydney LGA and neighbouring LGAs of northern Sydney. An extract of the routes within the study area is shown in Figure 3.9.
TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 29
Source: Northern Sydney Cycling Map (2012)
Figure 3.9: Existing Cycle Routes
There are no off-road bicycle routes or shared path routes within the study area, primarily due to road section width constraints and topography constraints, placing heavy reliance on on-road facilities. On-road marked bike routes weave their way from Eaton Street to Phillips Street and either divert onto Wycombe Road to join Yeo Street, or continue eastwards towards Murdoch Street/Milsons Road via Bannerman Street. Milson Road/Murdoch Street provides a north south connection for Cremorne Point to Yeo Street and the northern part of the study area.
Unmarked cycling routes include Clark Road and Kurraba Road, weaving their way from High Street eastward to Shellcove Road. Difficult grades have been identified on Bent Street up to Yeo Street, Spruson Street up to Phillips Street, Wycombe Road near Raymond Street and Bannerman Street up to Shellcove Road.
Cyclists travelling between Rangers Road and Alfred Street North experience difficulties when travelling in each direction at different locations. Westbound cyclists are faced with a “No Left Turn” to Harrison Street from Rangers Road on the prescribed cycling route. Cyclists must either mount the footpath or perform an illegal left turn through a narrow access to continue of Harrison Street. Eastbound cyclists on Winters Avenue from Alfred Street North to Bent Street travel in a cycling lane which runs against the one-way traffic movement without the safety of separation. Additionally, Bent Street poses a steep/difficult gradient for eastbound cyclists with no cycling infrastructure and a travel direction also against the one-way direction of travel for vehicles.

3.7 ParkingDemands
On-street parking within North Sydney Council is split into 33 residential parking areas located across the LGA. LATM Zone 6 comprises three areas as shown in Figure 3.10 and listed below:
Area 1; Area 28; Area 29; Area 30; Area 31; Area 32; and Area 33.
The North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy designated each of the 33 residential parking areas into three categories, described as follows:
High Demand; Medium Demand; and Low Demand.
LATM Zone 6 has one “High Demand” category for parking area, Area 1, three “Medium Demand” areas, and three “Low Demand” areas. These areas roughly correlate with facilities provided within Area 1 with it being in close proximity to North Sydney CBD, and Areas 28 and 29 being adjacent to Military Road and Neutral Bay Village.

3.8 PublicConsultationData
An extensive public consultation engagement was undertaken by Council in 2016 to inform transport,
traffic, and parking projects. The consultation methods included surveys, drop‐in sessions and
workshops and culminated in a comprehensive dataset of issues and suggested improvements
pertaining to transport, traffic, and parking. The consultation data was analysed to establish key traffic
and parking issues/suggestions for LATM Zone 6 as raised by the public.
For LATM Zone 6, Council received 1,894 submissions from 621 respondents. Of those submissions there
were 1,391 specific traffic and transport related issues raised. Of those issues, 31% were related to
traffic generally, 27% were related to parking, 15% were related to walking, 11% were related to buses
and 8% were related to cycling. The remaining 7% of issues were related to public transport, car share
and specific developments.
Figure 3.11: Summary of Issues raised during Public Consultation – LATM Zone 6
While the dataset was filtered by consultants, KJA using predefined themes, the data required further processing to identify key trends in issues and suggestions for further investigation. A broad set of issue descriptors was defined and assigned to each data entry to narrow-down the data and establish focus areas. The descriptors are detailed in Table 3.4.

3.9 KeyDevelopments/TrafficGenerators
3.9.1 TravelPatterns(JTW)
Journey to Work (JTW) travel patterns were assessed for an area representative of LATM Zone 6 to evaluate mode share and travel trends. The area of assessment is shown in Figure 3.14. The data represents trips which originate and end in LATM Zone 6, i.e. it does not consider trips which pass through it.
Source: BTS JTW Explorer Interactive Map
Figure 3.14: Journey to Work Assessment
The travel patterns for residents in LATM Zone 6 taken from the year 2011 “Journey to Work” (JTW) data from the Bureau of Transport Statistics (and from the ABS) shows that:
11,149 workers lived in LATM Zone 6, with 2,830 who worked within LATM Zone 6; the majority (40%) of JTW trips have a destination in the CBD; 28% of JTW trips remain within the North Sydney-Mosman area; 9% of JTW trips are towards the Chatswood-Lane Cove area; and the majority (46%) of workers within LATM Zone 6 travel from North Sydney-Mosman with a further 6%
workers travelling from Warringah and Chatswood-Lane Cove.
As shown in Figure 3.15, most trips from the study area are made by private vehicles (vehicle driver or vehicle passenger) with 43% of the trips. Public Transport is the next highest mode share with 42% of all trips,
TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 38
followed by walking with 11% uptake. Less than 4% of trips are made by bicycle.
Data Source: BTS JTW Explorer Interactive Map
Figure 3.15: Journey to Work Travel Patterns – From LATM Zone 6
Figure 3.16 shows the overall transportation mode shares for workers in LATM Zone 6 (for all types of trips). Car usage is the most prevalent travel type with 57%, including vehicle passengers. Public transport makes up 28% of the mode share, with 11% walking to work. Cycling is not a major mode of transport from LATM Zone 6 with less than 4% of trips potentially made by bicycle.

3.9.2 KeyTripGenerators
North Sydney Council defined key trip generators in four categories for the purpose of this study. The categories and the included features are:
Category 1 – Education; - Primary School; - High School; and - University/Tertiary Education.
Category 2 – Health and Care; - Retirement Village; - Aged Care Facility; and - Hospital.
TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 39
Category 3 – Parks; - Major Parks; and - Minor Parks.
Category 4 – Shopping; - Major Shopping; and - Minor Shopping.
Key trip generators are located on Military Road, and adjacent local streets, with extensive commercial spaces presenting a range of shopping opportunities and high density residential developments.
Schools are located to the north of the study area, with schools on Ben Boyd Road (Neutral Bay Public School), Yeo Street (Neutral Bay Public School) and Allister Street (Redlands Junior Campus and SCECGS). Aged care facilities are located in the south on the corner of Manns Avenue and Hayes Street to the north on the corner of Rangers Road and Military Road, with the Northside Cremorne Clinic (hospital) found on Harrison Street. Several parks are located within LATM 6 providing recreational areas with the majority located to the west of the study area and some scattered along the waterfront reserves.
Important pedestrian generators considered for the impact of the LATM schemes are shown in Figure 3.17.

3.9.3 DevelopmentTrafficOverlayAnalysis
A review of known developments either under consideration or approved between 2001 and January 2017 was undertaken. It should be noted that subsequent developments have not been considered as part of this review, however impact assessments are undertaken for individual DAs during the development application stage. A total of 84 development proposes have been approved for LATM Zone 6, comprising the following land uses:
Dwelling House; Multi-Dwelling House; and Residential Flat Buildings.
A total of 473 new dwellings have been approved across LATM Zone 6 with a maximum of 64 approved in a single location at 203 Military Road, Neutral Bay. Table 3.5 and Table 3.6 show the maximum parking rate and traffic generation per development type as per North Sydney Development Control Plan (2013) and the RMS Guide to Traffic Generating Developments (2002). It is important to note that detailed analysis and modelling was not possible as the respective Traffic Impact Assessments for each development were not made available by Council; however, this analysis is expected to have been completed as part of the Development Application process.

Figure 3.18: Parking Rates with Residential Parking Demand
TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 43
A small cluster of developments can be seen near Rangers Road and Yeo Street. With the highest parking rate being between 41-50 spaces required, along Rangers road. It is expected that these required parking facilities will be provided within the development for resident and any unexpected overspill will be accommodated with local on street parking, the “Medium Demand” area in which this cluster is located may mean that there are limitations to availability of on street parking in this location. The remaining developments are not expected to result in any substantial impact on parking demand due to their low-scale and dispersed nature, as seen in Figure 3.18.
TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 44
Source: ESRI Maps
Figure 3.19: Traffic Generation Rates with LEP Zones
TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 45
The traffic generation from the cluster near Rangers Road and Yeo Street has an estimated maximum traffic generation in the order of 21-30 trips per peak hour. The developments have access directly onto Rangers Road and Yeo Street which both act as collector roads allow for traffic to move away from local roads and onto Military Road which is classified as a “State” road and serves as a through traffic carrying function for the area. The remaining developments will have minimum impact on local road as it is expected that the developments will either be replacing existing dwellings of similar size or, as seen Figure 3.19, are only small traffic generators and will not have an adverse effect on the capacity of the surrounding local road network.
3.9.4 IssuesandNeedsSummary
The proposed developments reviewed in this study are not expected to have a substantial impact on the local traffic management schemes.
3.10 StateGovernmentProjects
The New South Wales Government is considering proposals to improve the bus services from the Northern Beaches servicing the Sydney CBD through the implementation of a new “B-line bus services”. While the proposals are still being considered (and are therefore subject to change), the current planning indicates services running from Sydney’s Northern Beaches along Military Road, through the study area, and on to the Sydney CBD. The B-line project will see buses running every five minutes during morning and afternoon peak periods and every 10 minutes during in off-peak times. B-line bus stops are proposed to be installed in Neutral Bay along Military Road at Wycombe Road westbound and Young Street eastbound. Several other changes are proposed to occur along Military Road, as seen in Figure 3.20, which include:
No Left Turn from Military Road at Ben Boyd Road northbound; No Right Turn from Ben Boyd Road at Military Road westbound; No Left Turn from Ben Boyd Road at Military Road westbound; No Right Turn from Murdoch Street at Military Road eastbound during morning peak; No Left Turn from Cabramatta Road at Military Road westbound; Extended city-bound tidal flow conditions during morning peak; and Some minor road widening.

This section identifies and summarises details of Council’s current list of traffic actions for LATM Zone 6.
4.2 SummaryofCouncil’sTrafficActions
In past years, Council has maintained a list of traffic facilities projects awaiting further approval and/or funding. As these projects have previously been identified through community engagement or Council resolutions it is appropriate that they are considered and incorporated into the LATM Action Plans where they are still relevant. Table 4.1 summarises the details of Council’s current list of traffic actions for LATM Zone 6.

5. DetailedDataAnalysis
5.1 SectionOutline
Section 3 broadly summarised the crash data, traffic speed data, traffic volume data and public feedback data for LATM Zone 6. This section analyses these four key datasets in finer detail to narrow-down focus areas and associated traffic and parking issues within LATM Zone 6 to identify any further traffic issues not already identified by Council. The detailed analysis culminates in a list of defined issues by location to be investigated and diagnosed at a fundamental level such that fit for purpose remedial solutions can be developed for the action plans. The proposed solutions supplement Council’s current list of traffic actions.
5.2 CrashData
Crash data is based on the reported crashes and details characteristics about the crash type, location, speed, severity, and a range of factors which can cause crashes including weather, time of day, time of year and influence of alcohol.
The crash data, between 2011 and 2016 was mapped in ArcMap with heat maps produced firstly to highlight ‘hot spots’ and problematic areas where a higher density of crash rates was recorded. Data outside of high density clusters or fatal crash locations were removed to allow for a detailed assessment of the remaining data.
Crash clusters were categorised based on crash type at each location to identify trends, namely by recurrence of same crash types. Where a majority or relatively significant quantity of crashes (i.e. at least three of the same crash types over the five-year period) are recorded at one location and are similar in nature (i.e. same DCA code, or DCA code series) it can highlight a deficiency in road design, intersection operation or local area traffic management (LATM). By identifying any specific trends and understanding possible contributing factors, a solution to treat the specific crash types can be devised.
The key crash trends for LATM Zone 6 are summarised in Table 5.1.
Table 5.1: Detailed Crash Trends – LATM Zone 6
Location Crash Type Frequency Vehicle Travel Direction
Spofforth Street / Holt Avenue DCA Code 101 (thru-thru) 8 West (vehicle 1) / north (vehicle 2)
5.3 TrafficSpeed
Traffic speed data was provided for various locations in the North Sydney LGA by Council for a 20-year period between 1996 and 2015. Only data for the five-year period from 2011 to 2015 was used to ensure data maintained relevant to the existing traffic conditions.
This assessment identified locations where speeds of traffic passing through the survey location were in excessive of the speed limit. The 85th percentile speed was taken as the indicative speed of vehicles and represents the speed that 85% of vehicles do not exceed. All locations where the 85th percentile speed remained below the posted speed limit were not considered for further assessment.
Locations identified as having an 85th percentile speed exceeding the posted speed were investigated on an individual basis. The characteristics of the roadway, conditions of the road surface, sight distance, adjacent land use and nearby cross roads will be considered when investigating why vehicles were travelling in excess of the posted speed limit regularly and to find a suitable measure to implement to calm traffic and reduce the 85th percentile speed below the posted speed limit.
Ten roads were found to have 85th percentile speeds in excess of the posted speed limit, which summarised in Table 5.2. Maps illustrating the locations are provided in Appendix B.

As part of a speed management review in 2015, North Sydney Council resolved to consider 40km/h Local Traffic Area speed limit projects as part of the development of all LATM studies, and that works undertaken as part of the LATM program adopt a design speed of 40km/h. Instances where the 85th percentile speed exceeded 40km/h are summarised in Table 5.2.

5.4 TrafficVolumes
Council provided traffic volume survey data for the by North Sydney Council for a 20-year period between 1996 and 2016. Data for the period from 2011 to 2016 was used to ensure data remained relevant to the existing traffic conditions.
The definition of the impact on residential/environmental amenity by varying levels of traffic flow is extremely complex. Perceptions of impact vary greatly from person to person. Traffic flows that one person may find perfectly acceptable may be considered excessive by another. Impact is affected by the nature of the street and the area in which it is located, its width, building setbacks, grades, etc. as well as by the speed of traffic and the mix of cars and heavy vehicles
This assessment identified locations where the AADT exceeded the respective road classification AADT threshold as outlined in the North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy (2015). The desired AADT thresholds, connections and speed limits are shown in Figure 5.1.

5.5 PublicConsultation
In depth analysis of the consultation data (referred to in Section 3) was undertaken to develop a comprehensive action plan for Council’s implementation.
Although the majority of feedback is related to traffic and transport management in the area generally, the responsibility for some of the issues falls outside of Council’s control. This includes matters relating to public transport and roads which are managed by the Roads and Maritime Services. Whilst Council does not have control over this infrastructure, they form an important role in the overall traffic and transport schemes for the area. Accordingly, these matters will be referred to the relevant authority for their attention. A summary of the issues raised is provided below.
The LATM Zone 6 Action Plan is provided in Appendix C.
TransportforNSW
There were 216 issues raised with respect to public transport in LATM Zone 6. 90 (41%) of these responses related to timetables for various modes of public transport. The most recurring of these requests was that the frequency of bus services. A summary of the issues raised and the raw feedback will be forwarded to Transport for NSW for their attention (Appendix D).

CyclingStrategy
As noted previously, 8% of issues raised related to cycling. This included a range of issues such as cycling safety and connectivity, as well as perceived safety of other road users due to the lack of separated cycling infrastructure. Council has already developed and is in the process of implementing the North Sydney Integrated Cycling Strategy, some of the issues raised have already been addressed as part of the cycling strategy and some are new matters that require further action. Many of the submissions justify the work that Council has already planned and highlight the need for more dedicated cycling infrastructure. The items raised are listed in the LATM Zone 6 Action Plan.
In addition, all future road facilities will be designed with cyclists in mind to ensure they do not create additional hazards or pinch points.
RoadSafetyEducation
There were a small number of submissions (4) concerned with a lack of understanding of the road rules amongst the general community. Council already produces a range of road safety campaigns targeted towards specific road users about key road safety messages which have been developed based on local crash data, collaboration with local Police and the RMS. The feedback received during the LATM consultation phase can also be used to inform and enhance these campaigns. These actions have been included in the LATM Zone 6 Action Plan.
MattersReferredtoOtherCouncilDepartments
50 submissions were received which fall under the responsibility of various Council departments but contribute to the overall transport amenity of the area. These include conditions of footpaths, enforcement of parking restrictions, events management bus stop infrastructure and driveway approvals. A list of these issues has been summarised in Table 5.6 and will be referred to the appropriate departments within Council for their attention (Appendix F).
72 of the submissions received could not be used further for reasons such as there was not enough information provided, the issue fell within a different LATM Zone, or the issue was outside of the North Sydney Council LGA. A comment has been provided against each of these in Appendix G to explain why these have not been included in the Action Plans, or if they have been referred to the Action Plan for a different LATM Zone.

7. ProjectScoring–TrafficActions
Council’s traffic actions and those identified by this study have been assessed against several different criteria as per the North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy (2015) to prioritise the actions on a relative basis. The scoring methodology consists of two parts – an assessment of the current conditions (problem score) and an assessment of the proposed treatment (solution score).
7.1 ExistingConditions(ProblemScore)
The problem score, P, is derived from the following quantitative criteria:
road classification; traffic volume vs desired volume; 85th percentile speed vs desired speed of 40km/h; crash data including weighted scores for severity and vulnerable road users; relative pedestrian and cyclist volumes; and surrounding land uses
7.2 CommunityStrategicPlanCriteria
The solution score, S, is derived from the project assessment framework set out in the 2017 Draft North Sydney Transport Strategy which consists of a score from -3 to 3 based on how relatively consistent the proposal is with the following criteria:
Safe Travel - Improve community safety by creating slow speed road environments where more vulnerable road users are protected from higher impact road users and the number of crashes and severity of injuries is minimised
Transport Security - Improve personal security through improved streetscape design, increased street activity and passive surveillance
Social Wellbeing - Provide social spaces where human interaction is given the highest priority and the negative impacts of traffic are minimised, promoting incidental social interaction, increasing civic pride, reducing anti-social behaviour and community policing requirements
Active Health - Provide infrastructure that encourages healthy and active lifestyle/travel choices Fair Access to Parking - Reduce demand for parking and / or provide more equitable access to
existing parking supply Environmental Sustainability - Encourage the use of low greenhouse gas emitting transport options Local Environments - Encourage the use of travel modes that have minimal impact on air quality,
water quality and noise Transport Affordability - Encourage the use of travel options with lower social, health and economic
costs and higher social, health and economic benefits Congestion - Apply travel demand management principles to minimise traffic demand and
associated traffic congestion Business Activity - Increase business opportunities by improving the look/ amenity of North Sydney
throughout the day and in to the evening while, at the same time, reducing the whole of life cost of transport networks, including the ongoing costs associated with cleaning and maintaining assets
7.3 TotalProjectScore
The total Project Score is calculated using the following formula:
Where:
T = Total Project Score
TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 57
P = Problem Score
S = Solution Score
N = Relative number of people affected by proposal
C = Cost of implementing project
The Action Plan is intended to provide a 10 year program of works for Council. However the Action Plan will be reviewed on an ongoing basis to highlight projects that have been completed and also incorporate new projects that are subsequently identified through community requests and Council studies. The priority timeframe “Short”, “Medium” or “Long” has been assigned based on relative scoring and project ranking. It is intended that the indicated timeframe is the timeframe in which the project should be completed. However all projects identified will require some level of further planning, investigation and design in the short and medium. Some projects are also intended to be programs or actions to be implemented on a continued basis over the long term, for example Road Safety Campaigns, and these have been assigned “Long Term” priorities accordingly. An indicative quantitative description of each timeframe is provided below.
Short term: 1-2 years Medium term: 2-5 years Long term: 5-10 years In addition, a small number of projects have been assigned the priority “Not to proceed”. These are for projects which have been assessed under the LATM criteria but were inconsistent with the community priorities and objectives outlined in Council’s Community Strategic Plan. For those projects, the reasons have been noted in the Action Plan and an alternative, positive benefit action has been proposed, but remain on the list for clarity and future reference. An example of the scoring methodology is provided in Appendix H.
The outcomes of the LATM assessment have been used to produce the LATM Action Plan which is provided at Appendix C.

8. ParkingReview
8.1 SectionOutline
This section provides a high-level parking review for LATM Zone 6 due to the absence of comprehensive parking data. This section culminates in a parking action plan.
8.2 ParkingReviewMethodology
At the time of preparing the LATM 6 Action Plan, comprehensive parking occupancy data was not available for all streets in the LATM Zone. This data collection is an extensive process that needs to be undertaken on a regular basis either with manual surveys or use of Council's License Plate Recognition vehicle. For the purposes of this report, sample parking occupancy surveys have been undertaken in collaboration with Council and based on community feedback data. The purpose of this process is to identify key roads that need to be prioritised for detailed surveys and assessment. However, it is recommended that an ongoing schedule of parking surveys across all streets in each LATM Zone be undertaken to ensure parking can be pro-actively managed across each LATM Zone.
The results for each sample of the LATM areas were represented in tables, with the main focus on the occupancy percentage for each street that was identified in the survey samples. North Sydney Council Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy (2015) provides a LATM Parking Principles Plan (Warrants) table which identifies the occupancy percentage thresholds and actions required (refer Figure 8.1). Where the parking occupancy percentage exceeds 85% for multiple time periods, further analysis will be recommended as a high priority. If any of the streets exceed 85% for only one time period, further analysis will still be recommended; however, it is treated as a lower priority.
Source: Table 7.6 – Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy (2016)
Figure 8.1: LATM Parking Principles Plan (Warrants)
The limitations involved with this survey process were largely related to time constraints and limited on-street car parking data received from Council. The limiting factors include:
using google maps to calculate on-street car parking provision; and work zones not providing accurate representation of occupancy percentage.
TAPAS Action Plan Zone 6
North Sydney Council Page 59
8.3 KeyFindings
As noted in Section 3.8, parking-related issues made up 27% of the feedback from the community in LATM Zone 6. Furthermore, 87% of that feedback was that either parking restrictions were either too restrictive or not restrictive enough. The most frequently mentioned streets were Milson Road (22); Kurraba Road (18); Shellcove Road (17); Murodch Street (15); Kareela Road (10); and Cremorne Road (9).
The key roads surveyed and respective survey results for LATM Zone 6 are summarised in Table 8.1.
Table 8.1: Sample Parking Occupancy Survey Summary
Street AM Occupancy Off-Peak Occupancy PM Occupancy Average
Occupancy
Yeo Street 66% 75% 76% 72%
Wycombe Road 59% 61% 70% 63%
Murdoch Road 60% 68% 63% 64%
Milson Road 64% 59% 62% 62%
Clark Road 63% 58% 58% 60%
Kurraba Road 93% 97% 86% 92%
The sample occupancy data indicates that all streets surveyed require regular monitoring with average occupancies ranging between 60% - 72% (i.e. 45-85% occupancy range in Figure 7.1). Kurraba Road which recorded an average occupancy of 92% will require further investigation to determine if the time restriction parking areas should be reduced (i.e. 2P to 1P) as per the direction in Figure 8.1 .
8.4 LATMActions–Parking
It is recommended that an LGA-wide parking study is undertaken with detailed parking surveys. This would provide a complete data set necessary to determine informed parking actions, such as monitoring frequency and modifications to existing restrictions.
In addition to the above, it is recommended that an ongoing schedule of parking surveys across all streets in LATM 6 be undertaken to ensure parking can be pro-actively managed. The schedule should be initially prioritised based on proximity to major parking generators, then locations with a high number of public complaints and then all other streets to provide an ongoing, complete data inventory.

9. ApprovalsProcesses
The approvals process for the LATM actions involved several different steps to be approved for final recommendations. The steps were:
1. Draft LATM Action Plans submitted to Council for endorsement to place on public exhibition;
2. Draft LATM Action Plans placed on public exhibition for a minimum of 28 days;
3. Feedback from Steps 1-3 incorporated into LATM Action Plans;
4. Final LATM Action Plans submitted to Council for adoption;
5. 5-10 year program of works developed from LATM Action Plans;
6. Ongoing review of LATM Action Plans included completed and new assessed and prioritised items; and
7. Projects referred to Traffic Committee for approval prior to implementation.
North Sydney Council has been delegated certain powers from RMS to manage traffic matters on North Sydney roads. The North Sydney Traffic Committee considers all proposed changes to traffic and parking arrangements within the North Sydney LGA. Any recommendations from the traffic committee must be taken into consideration by North Sydney Council before making a determination to proceed.
The Action Plan will be reviewed on an ongoing basis to highlight completed actions. The Action Plan will also be updated with new projects that are identified by the community or through studies and subsequently prioritised using the LATM assessment criteria.

10. Summary
In order to gain a detailed understanding of the traffic and parking requirements and needs across the North Sydney LGA, investigations have been carried out under the Local Area Traffic Management Action Plans (LATM) program. The LGA of North Sydney was divided into seven LATM zone; this report has considered LATM Zone 6.
The key traffic and parking actions are summarised in the following subsections. Appendix F includes a complete action plan comprising of the traffic and parking actions, maps of action locations and the concept plans for schemes identified by this study.
10.1 TrafficActions
Actions for LATM Zone 6 have been incorporated into a single Action Plan. This incorporates actions that were developed as a result of the review of community consultation and from past traffic facilities programs, and additional actions identified by Bitzios Consulting as part of the detailed technical review. The actions and associated priority are shown in Appendix C. The Action Plan is intended to provide a 10 year program of works for Council. The priority timeframe “Short”, “Medium” or “Long” has been assigned based on relative scoring and ranking. It is intended that the indicated timeframe is the timeframe in which the project should be completed. However, all projects identified will require some level of planning, investigation and design in the short, medium or long term. Some projects are also intended to be programs or actions to be implemented on a continued basis over the long term, for example Road Safety Campaigns, and these have been assigned “Long Term” priorities accordingly. An indicative quantitative description of each timeframe is provided below.
Short term: 1-2 years
Medium term: 2-5 years
Long term: 5-10 years
In addition, a small number of projects have been assigned the priority “Not to proceed”. These are for projects which have been through the rigorous assessment and scoring process but overall produced a negative benefit when assessed against Council’s scoring criteria. For those projects, the reasons have been noted in the Action Plan and an alternative, positive benefit action has been proposed, but remain on the list for clarity and future reference.
10.2 ParkingReview
In lieu of comprehensive parking occupancy data, the focus area for the parking review and sample parking occupancy surveys was primarily based on collaboration with Council, as well as public feedback data. The extent of the parking surveys undertaken in LATM Zone 7 was largely based on the proximity to commercial streets and public feedback received in the area. Through this process, several streets were selected in LATM Zone 7 and treated as a sample due to project time constraints.
The actions and associated priority are shown in Appendix C.
It is recommended that an ongoing schedule of parking surveys across all streets in LATM Zone 6 be undertaken to ensure parking can be pro-actively managed.

ID Location Description of Request or Issue Action Category
Action Notes Priority
C.1 Alfred Street North
3 submissions Lack of bike path Alfred St North 433 Alfred St North ‐ cycleway ramp removed about 12 parking spaces. No notification to residents. Poor road surface: Cyclist travel on this road very fast, due to the long downhill coming off the freeway. There are many uneven surfaces in this area and so it is very dangerous for cyclists.
Cycling Strategy
Install separated cycleway along Alfred Street North
Long
C.2 Bannerman Street and Murdoch Street
2 submissions Bannerman Road & Murdoch St Neutral Bay ‐ Bikes thinking they own the road. All our roads in our area are too narrow for bikes & cars. Why did Council paint bikes in the middle of the road? Who pays for roads? Bikes or cars? MORE BICYCLE PATHS SEPARATED FROM MOTOR TRAFFIC‐ CLARKE/KURRABA/WYCOMBE/HARRIETTE/BANNERMAN/MURDOCH IS A PARTICULAR NEED
Cycling Strategy
Continue to install separated cycleway along Bannerman Street as part of Priority Route 3 Cycleway Project
Medium
C.3 Ben Boyd Road from Kurraba Road to Military Road
2 submissions People need to use cycling path, not pathways (Footpaths?) and cyclists need to not run red Speed hazard for cyclists, feels dangerous. Pedestrian is bad.
Cycling Strategy
Install separated cycleway along Ben Boyd Road from Kurraba Road to Military Road
Long
C.4 Bennett Street and Rangers Road
"Lack of cycling lanes" Cycling Strategy
Install separated cycleway along Bennett Street adjoining Route 3 cycleway
Medium
C.5 Bent Street at Merlin Street and Winter Avenue
4 submissions Bent St, Neutral Bay ‐ Contra‐flow bike lane is signposted, but doesn't exist! Move west‐side parking 2m to road to make room. "Bent St, Neutral Bay ‐ Pedestrian crossing needed across Bent Street into Winter Ave. Very fast bikes make it hazardous to across" 18. Winter Ave, corner Bent St ‐ Cycleway ends abruptly in one way street. Needs serious replanning/strategy to improve cyclist safety Cyclists using footpath (Bent Street & Merlin Street)
Cycling Strategy
Install separated cycleway along Bent Street linking Winter Avenue and Merlin Street including appropriate crossing facilities at key intersections.

C.6 Clark Road 17 submissions "Clark Rd ‐ cyclists "Kurraba Rd & Clark Rd leading to/from Harbour Br ‐ cyclists completely hold up the traffic ‐ the roads are too narrow for cyclists and cars. Suggest turning one of the pavements into a cycle path and keep the footpath on the other side of the road for pedestrians. Generally ‐ Lack of cycle paths/ lanes partic. on major arteries. Kurraba Rd, Clark St, High St ‐ cycle paths, there are none and it's unsafe to cycle. MORE BICYCLE PATHS SEPARATED FROM MOTOR TRAFFIC‐ CLARKE/KURRABA/WYCOMBE/HARRIETTE/BANNERMAN/MURDOCH IS A PARTICULAR NEED Clark Rd, Neutral Bay ‐ Cyclists disregarding road rules and riding two abreast and three red traffic lights "KURRABA RD TO CLARK RD, NORTH SYDNEY ‐ MANY CYCLISTS TAKE THIS ROUTE TO ACCESS THE BRIDGE. CLARK ROAD DANGEROUS FOR CYCLISTS FOOTPATH ON EASTERN SIDE OF CLARK RD BETWEEN ADDERSTONE Avenue AND HIGH ST ‐ THIS FOOTPATH IS VERY NARROW, IT IS USED BY MANY PEDESTRIANS AND RUNNERS IN THE MORNING WHO FREQUENTLY HAVE TO STEP ONTO CLARK RD TO PASS EACH OTHER, THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO HEAVY TRAFFIC AND CYCLISTS ON THE ROAD " "Bike Riders near High St and Clark Rd ‐ they do not follow the rules and are weaving in and out of traffic, leaning up against cars when stopped. Its really dangerous in this area not for the riders but for a driver." "Kurraba Rd and Clark Rd ‐ These roads carry heavy traffic and have no capacity for safe cycling" Kurrabard, Clark Rd, Broughton St and other roads within zone 6 ‐ no designated cycle lane on these roads. CLARKE RD ‐ CYCLISTS IN LEFT LANE SLOWS TRAFFIC Clark Road ‐ Cyclists hold up cars causing traffic jams "Clark Rd, Neutral Bay ‐ Congestion, no room for bikes due to cars parked on road. To Work/City ‐>Clark Road near Adderstone Avenue and High St. Hill is really steep so forced to go slow (10kph) you can tell that cars are lining up behind you and getting impatient so I fear one will get angry and pass really close. Road is so narrow that is happens regularly and if makes me feel unsafe.It would be great to get bike lanes for these small sections up hills. From Margaret St to Milsons Point station ‐ there are always dozens of bike riders before and during peak

hours, its like a plague because of the Bridge crossing. They never adhere to the Road Rules and are very dangerous to themselves and traffic, many are belligerent. BROUGHTON ST, MILSONS POINT ‐ DESPERATELY NEED KERB SEPARATED 2 WAY BICYCLE LANE BETWEEN THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS AT CLARKE AND HIGH ST THROUGH TO THE LIGHTS AT BROUGHTON/ENNIS/BURTON.

C.17 Military Road ‐ Safety
7 sumbssions "When on a bike, dangerous drivers." Generally speaking, in my area, traffic is as good as the roads are wide. I ride but only at 5.30am when there are no dangers. I drive from Neutral Bay to school at Mosman and then drive on Militarty Road or go the back road through to the tunnel, to head over to UNSW. I don't mind sitting in traffic, but I am finding aggressive motor bikes riders are not just lane splitting but they are zig zagging and they expect every car to hit their brakes when required. One of them is going to be hit by a car and they will blame the car driver. I've riden motorbikes, so I have some experience. I have found a few of them lately pointing the finger at car drivers who are simply trying to drive in traffic. Cyclist who ride on Military Road during peak hour are taking high risks. John Brogden said over 10years ago that an underground tunnel was the way forward for our area, it should run from Burnt brush through to the Bradfield highway or thereabouts. I still think this is the long term answer for people coming from the Northern Beaches whether by public transport or driving a car, motorbike. An expressway is the answer for this area for peak area. I drove from Curl Curl to UNSW for a year, I wouldn't do it now. Thanks for the opportunity.

Sydney located on the east side of the Warringah Freeway centered around Whaling Rd have very poor access to the main public transport hub of North Sydney. There is no pedestrian footpath along the north side of the High St overpass or a convenient location to cross High St. Residents frequently dart between the traffic of the High St overpass in order to walk along the median strip. This creates a danger to pedestrians and cars along the High St overpass, as well as traffic along the Warringah Freeway below. It creates additional traffic by discouraging the use of public transport. Whaling Rd, crossing High St ‐ Crosing to Milsons Point Station across High St. Cars approach too fast and the path alongside the Warringah Freeway needs work, clean up and cyclists do not always dismount. Holdsworth St, Neutral Bay (intersection with Kurraba Rd) ‐ There is no safe way to get across Kurraba Rd from our street so as to walk to Hayes St Wharf (for ferry) or to get to Anderson Park (to walk to Milson Point Station). We urgently need either: (i) pedestrian "island" / Safety rails in middle of Kurraba Rd and/or (ii) extension of/constriction of pedestrian footpath from Holdsworth St into Kurraba Rd (left hand side) so we can access the pedestrian "island" existing near car park area. There is no pedestrian footpath now on Kurraba Rd on left hand side that connects with Holdsworth Street.

Ped.9 Rangers Avenue at Spofforth Street
Rangers Ave/Spofforth St ‐ Very hard to cross the road at this intersection (dog leg) Spofforth Street ‐ excessive speed & Pedestrian crossing Due to the natural slope of this street vehicles exceed 50kmh all the time. A pedestrian refuge or crossing is needed between Spencer & Cabramatta Road. This section is heavily used by pedestrians crossing the road to get to Cremorne Post Office and Cremorne Vet Hospital as well as the Cremorne Town Centre. In peak hours the volume of traffic on Spofforth makes it extremely difficult for pedestrians to cross ‐ on a dark, rainy night the situation is even more perilous. A pedestrian crossing will also require good lighting.

S.3 SCEGGS Redlands Junior Campus
15 submissions Rangers Road heading east toward Spofforth St ‐ Morning traffic Congestion caused by School drop off. It is sometimes slow, and at times it is dangerous, because people are impatient to turn in or out of Allister St. School traffic ‐ Redlands As you would be aware the Redlands pick and drop zone takes place on Alistair Street off Rangers Road daily with set down with cars moving to Spofforth street in a loop. Whilst this causes exhaustive delays and congestion, the traffic situation has reached epic proportions along both directions of Rangers Road both North and South bound. Whist as a resident I am concerned about the future traffic management and increased congestion in the years to come, my concerns are even more grave for the children that are required to cross this dangerously busy street each day. The two crossings are the traffic lights at the top of Rangers and Murdoch and the precarious traffic island at Spofforth Street and Rangers road which has been t‐boned on multiple occasions from speeding drivers. There is not a safe crossing for school community or residents within the close perimeter. Some major questions we as residents would like answered are; Is there a traffic management plan in place for the area that the school is responsible for implementing and assisting in adhering to? Is there any information that you can share with me that outlines what the schools conditions are in terms traffic safety and safe parking? Are there any future strategic plans at play to discuss student growth numbers and how this will impact the area? Are there any future plans to create a safe crossing for safe passage across Rangers road to the school? Car parking ‐ School/parents/teachers Parking availability for teachers and parents is obviously limited which means that parents collect children whilst parking in our driveways most days, rendering me and my neighbours unable to exit our driveway. We have resorted to using abandoned witches hats to restrict parking in the area. There is 2 hour parking on Alistair street and also restricted parking via the school on Rangers Rd but not along the whole street which we can't understand. Staff and workers park here for the day congesting the streets and often across our drives. We have raised this with the school in the past however the school cannot prevent all parents brazenly parking in vacant driveways. Therefore we would like to see the traffic management plan/conditions that the school is required to adhere to and communicate with parents/teachers. Rangers Rd between Murdoch & Spofforth Streets ‐ Traffic especially PM when this section of road is at a standstill because of parent pick‐ups from SCEGGS.

The response from Ms Skinner did not address the dangerousness or the solution mentioned in my letter to her ‐ this is particularly disappointing. I understand the State Government has various initiatives to ensure school children can walk to and from school in safety. These appear to have been ignored by Ms Skinner... You will note that Ms Skinner referred the issue to the North Sydney Traffic Committee who advised that ""at roundabouts pedestrians must give way to vehicles on the road and must cross when it is safe to do so"". Why is it that the Traffic Committee, like Ms Skinner, did not address the dangerousness or my solution mentioned in my letter? Can Council please explain why if the State Government ignores the safety of pedestrians at roundabouts that it is deemed a Council issue? Given the pedestrian issues in inner city suburbs, why would Council have roundabouts at all? Conversations were held with WA and AL (both of whom have resigned from Council).

cannot be installed if there is in sufficient usage by pedestrians? If this is true, how is the issue to be fixed? The State Government says pedestrians have not rights at roundabouts and Council is indicating that a crossing cannot be installed unless pedestrian flow is sufficient. WA advised that I should attend a meeting of the local Precinct. This I did. The issues with the Murdoch and Bannerman Street roundabout were to my knowledge minuted by the Precinct on several occasions. It was left to me and a fellow resident to arrange a meeting of Council representatives at the roundabout. My recollection is that was requested but has not occurred. Is it possible to have a meting with Council representatives at the roundabout? " Bannerman St ‐ no safe place to cross ‐ cars regularly speed along this street. Consider speed humps.

T.14 Bennett Street 5 submissions "Bennett St ‐ East End street, not wide enough for two cars to pass" "BENNET ST (EAST END) ‐ STREET NOT WIDE ENOUGH FOR 2 cars TO PASS" Concerns the eastern end of Bennett St which ends at Murdoch Street ‐ Travelling east along Bennett St the road gradually rise up narrowing quite dramatically around residence No.30. There is a small ROAD NARROWS sign on the left, not easily visible. If two cars meet between here and Murdoch St, one driver usually has to give way. Most days there is heavy parking on both sides of this section of road. There is a single car space outside residence No.37, often used, that makes this section of road even more dangerous. IMMEDIATE SHORT TERM REMEDY ‐ No parking outside No. 37 and a much more prominent ROAD NARROWS sign. LONG TERM REMEDY ‐ From residence No.30 to Murdoch St. take the curb on that side, back one metre. It would make a huge difference, and could easily be done. A point (that was not made in the consultation meeting) concerns a dangerous narrow part of Bennett St, between Murdoch and Wycombe. Most of Bennett is wide enough to accommodate parked cars, plus cars travelling in both directions. However the road is much narrower at the Murdoch street end, it is a blind hill, and it would be safer to restrict parking to just one side of the road, in this section of Bennett. I would appreciate if Council can consider this recommendation. At the top of a rise is dangerous blind narrow road in Bennett Street, Cremorne ‐ At the top of a rise on Bennett Street the road narrows, cars park on each side of the road which means that when a car is proceeding east its driver cannot see (a real blind area) if a car is coming up the hill from the west to the east. Locals usually proceed carefully and pull over to give way. On Sunday afternoon (24/4/2016) we were driving from the west to east along Bennett Street when a ute screamed up the hill travelling from east to west. We were lucky to miss being hit. I would support a slow 15 sign on both sides of the rise and no parking on both sides for a short area.

Corner Spofforth St and Exit from Cremorne Centre ‐ Many dangerous integration manoeuvres one collision Install roundabout Spofforth/Cabramatta Road intersection This is a very high volume and tricky intersection for vehicles and pedestrians. Pedestrians in particular are currently at high risk of injury at this intersection. This intersection is also transversed by many large vehicles (trucks) making deliveries to Cremorne Town Centre shops. The situation at this intersection when the B‐line bus service starts will be 100x worse as vehicles will not be able to exit direct to Military Road. All vehicles entering Cabramatta Road from Spofforth Street will have to make a 3 point turn around to exit back onto Spofforth. This situation is critically dangerous and needs urgent attention. Spofforth Street ‐ excessive speed & Pedestrian crossing Due to the natural slope of this street vehicles exceed 50kmh all the time. A pedestrian refuge or crossing is needed between Spencer & Cabramatta Road. This section is heavily used by pedestrians crossing the road to get to Cremorne Post Office and Cremorne Vet Hospital as well as the Cremorne Town Centre. In peak hours the volume of traffic on Spofforth makes it extremely difficult for pedestrians to cross ‐ on a dark, rainy night the situation is even more perilous.

18 submissions Intersection of Kurraba Rd and Clarke Rd, traffic lights needed to make pedestrian crossing safe "Clarke Rd, Kurraba Rd/ Rawson St Interchange ‐ we need a roundabout, quite dangerous. " Kurraba Rd/Clark Rd Junction, Neutral Bay ‐ very difficult to get onto either road from the shops or coming from Rawson St. Roundabout? Safety. eg Intersection of Clark Road, Kurraba Road, Rawson Street is a busy dangerous intersection where right of way is ambiguous to many drivers. A round‐about would make this a safer more efficient interscetion At the workshop for Zone 6 there was also consensus on the need for a roundabout at the intersection of Clark Road/Rawson Street/Kurraba Road West/Kurraba Road East. It is a nightmare for residents turning from or into Rawson Street and Kurraba Road West, while the rat run traffic all has a clear run. Nobody understands the road rules, and even if they do understand them they have to break them or there would be an impasse. We have suffered this for 30 years and hope one day common sense will prevail, as there is plenty of space for a roundabout. "Kurraba Rd/Clarke Rd ‐ traffic, parking " 1. Kurraba Rd, intersection with Clarke and Rawson St ‐ Dangerous intersection. Roundabout needed? Or other approach? "Many suggestions were made at the (zone 6) workshop, and most people were in agreement about the primary problems in the area. Everyone I spoke with had major issues with the intersection of Clark Road/Kurraba Road/Rawson Street and thought a roundabout was the solution.

a day see how dangerous it is, and also how few people understand who has right of way. If someone from the council would sit at the bus stop, or the restaurant, and watch for half an hour they would see what a fiasco it is. I realize that there are many issues with roundabouts, but I think that this intersection may be an exception. The traffic which currently has right of way ‐ coming down Clark Road and making the sharp right hand turn into Kurraba Road ‐ has to slow down considerably to make that turn. That traffic is very heavy, with few breaks. This makes it hard turning or crossing from any of the other three streets. There is a lot less traffic coming from those three (Rawson Street from the north, Kurraba Road from the east and Kurraba Road from the west) so the Clark road traffic would not be affected too much by a roundabout, as they already slow down for the turn. There is a huge area for a roundabout. If the bus stop is an issue I'm sure it could be accommodated by cutting into the grass island in front of the shops." Too many roads coming from different directions can be dangerous. No signage indicating, who has right of way, 1. The intersection between Kurraba, Clark Roads and Rawson Street is dangerous for both pedestrians and motorists. It is confusing for motorists to determine who has the right of way, and we have witnessed several near collisions and terrified pedestrians running for their lives! We suggest a roundabout at this intersection as there is plenty of available space for this without compromising traffic flow or needing to significantly alter the position of pavements, bus stops and other street furniture. Roundabout needed. 5 roads come into it. Always backed up traffic. Direction of traffic and bus stop at intersection = bottleneck and can't turn easily. Roundabout = solution?? Crner Holdsworth St and Kurraba Rd ‐ Dangerous when turning right from Holdsworth St to Kurraba Rd in car. Intersection of Eaton St, Clark Rd and Kurraba Rd ‐ it needs a roundabout. It is dangerous and difficult to negotiate in a car. "KURRABA RD, RAWSON ST, MURDOCH ST, RAT RUN ‐ ROUNDABOUT DONT FLOW BECAUSE UNPATIENT PEOPLE BLOCK THEM."

Traffic congestion at roundabout I would be very pleased if some consideration could be given to the safety of the pedestrian crossing on Spofforth St near Cranbrook Avenue. Nearly daily I see near misses as traffic approaching the pedestrian crossing appear to not be seeing pedestrians approaching/entering the pedestrian crossing. Approaching pedestrians seem to be un‐sighted by other vehicles and trees. Vehicle drivers appear more focused on negotiating the nearby roundabout and are not focused on pedestrians approaching/entering the pedestrian crossing. In addition to a lack of focus on the pedestrian crossing, Speed is often a factor, as is Driver Frustration caused by the regular traffic congestion in this area. Could I suggest a raised pedestrian crossing (that as a form of speed hump also slows traffic and focuses drivers on the pedestrian crossing) is worthy of consideration. I would welcome any other action that could be taken to improve the safety of this pedestrian crossing. This pedestrian crossing gets a lot of use by school children and members of the public who are walking to local schools, bus stops and shops.

If a clearway was set up for the first 4 car spots, traffic could pass on the left and continue down Spofforth St. Install a roundabout at the southern junction of Rangers Road and Spofforth Street. This would allow easier and more efficient entry from Spofforth street from the south. Naturally, this would benefit the bus route using that road, as well as private cars. Admittedly there would be a loss of about 4 car parking spaces on the east side of Spofforth Street, but perhaps these could be replaced with angle parking further south in Spofforth Street, on the west side, considering the width of the road.

Spofforth & Rangers Road intersection needs redesign and/or improvement with particular attention to safety of pedestrians. Suggest a traffic light or pedestrian crossing. Currently parking signs allow cars to legally park much too close to this intersection which impacts on line‐of‐sight (currently less than the 10 metre no parking zone). Speeding and Safety ‐ Rangers Road What has become evident over the past years since we have lived here is the increasing amount of drivers taking the back route to the harbour crossing in lieu of the Military Road arterial road. Obviously this is contributing to the ongoing problem of clogged streets and slow commutes, with the addition of the school traffic it is reaching breaking point. In addition to the lack of safe crossing zones to the school, is the issue serious speeding that is taking place down this street day and night (when its not a carpark). My husband and I have personally seen three accidents involving cyclists. The hoons also enjoy the unhindered flat straight with zero concern for the hidden 50 km signs that are adjacent to the Redlands fencing. Whilst the VMS was a thoughtful effort, it certainty does not slow the drivers at any time of day. The only thing to slow them is the few hundred cars that are stopped each morning and night. With the addition of parents and families trying to dart between the parking lot. There is a fair argument to point out that less than 800m away at Rangers Ave, Mosman Council has addressed these speeding drivers with the addition of chicanes and speed humps in their streets. There is also the addition of the pedestrian crossing 300m approx from the intersection by the Spofforth shops.

that one day we will meet serious harm at the traffic island at Spofforth shops. Therefore I would like to raise the following queries; Can we request that the Traffic Committee review the situation of the traffic island and dangerous intersection at Spofforth and Rangers Rd? Either assess the need for a pedestrian crossing nearby the school and/or roundabout at this intersection? This would slow drivers at Rangers Rd, allow for safe crossing of young children and prams and also reduce the need to cross at Spofforth Street traffic island yet allowing access to this area without walking to the cross closer to rangers ave.

Comments pertaining to traffic flow in the Spofforth Street area during morning peak hour: a) North Sydney area ‐ I) SCEGGS school traffic into Allistair St from Rangers Rd, and ii) Rangers Rd traffic turning right into Murdoch St. Both I) and ii) have traffic blocked up in Rangers Rod and back up to the Rangers Ave roundabout on Spofforth St (and also at times backed up to along Rangers Ave). This could be simply fixed by having two lanes of traffic along Rangers Rd. As it is, parked cars do not allow passing of cars turning into Allistair St or into Murdoch. A clearway in peak times along the full length of Rangers Rd would fix the problem.

Would it be possible to put in a crossing midway between Murdoch St and Shellcove Rd (like on Wycombe at Bennett St), which would force traffic to slow to the speed limit. B‐double trucks thundering through the suburbs, on roads not constructed to take them. Wycombe, Harriette St ‐ crossing ‐ npn‐existent, very unsafe for pedestrians.

Wycombe Rd, Neutral Bay ‐ parking on the way up the hill, just before Shellcove Rd intersection. Cars are allowed to park on left hand side of this bend. Safer if no parking. The bus 225 has to drive up onto the traffic island to get past parked cars. I have been a passenger and in my car behind the bus. It is not safe, an accident waiting to happen. Wycombe Rd/Shellcove Rd ‐ one section of curbing should be removed or parking on left removed as bus has to drive on to curb. Extend kerb return to prevent vehicles speeding into Shellcove Rd

T.101 Yeo Street near Ben Boyd Road
2 submissions Concerns a section of Yeo St ‐ Drivers travelling east along Yeo St across Ben Boyd Rd or turning east into Yeo St from Ben Boyd Road have to be extremely careful because of oncoming traffic. This is principally because the four or five parking spaces between Ben Boyd Rd and Bydown St make it dangerous merging with traffic travelling west. They are forced right out of the left lane into the centre. IMMEDIATE REMEDY ‐ No parking between Ben Boyd Road and Bydown St on the Synagogue side, or restrictions as to when you can. 9.

Yeo St ‐ street not wide enough for two cars to pass (near Fire station) "YEO ST (NEAR FIRE STATION) ‐ STREET NOT WIDE ENOUGH FOR 2 cars TO PASS" 1) Yeo Street, NEUTRAL BAY: On road parking causes major issues for drivers, buses and pedestrians. The road is NOT wide enough to support bi directional traffic AND parking on both sides. One side should have parking removed completely. 3. Corner Watson and Yeo Streets ‐ 1 car space restricts traffic flow at peak hour. Remove/change to no parking during peak hours 10 Corner Ben Boyd and Yeo outside Synagogue ‐ Synagogue places barriers with permission but often restrict road. "Yeo St, Neutral Bay ‐ cars park both sides between Ben Boyd rd and Wycombe Rd, not enough room for traffic let alone bikes." Yeo St, Neutral Bay is too narrow and busy ‐ it should be a street in which parking is available on one side only ‐ between Wycombe Rd and Watson st ‐ where there is a school, Fire Station, child care, church and synagogue.

T.109 Rangers Road at Harrison Street
• Illegal left and right turns contrary to no turn signs from Rangers Road into Harrison Street are increasingly commonplace. • No Turn signs are often vandalised • 'Road rage' events from motorists wishing to make an illegal turn are increasing. • I have been abused by a motorist who expected me to reverse back to allow his entry into the street • Pedestrians do not expect vehicles to make the turn and step into the street without checking for illegal turn makers • A stream of High School and Primary School children cross Harrison at this intersection to and from their schools or busses • Harrison Street is also a published cycle route a conflict between cyclists and an illegal turner would be potentially disastrous • Perhaps the addition of ‘No Entry’ signs in addition to the existing No Turn signs may be useful. • In the past police used to conduct semiregular compliance monitoring by positioning themselves in Harrison Lane and booking illegal turners. That has not been seen for quite some time • Perhaps the Council might request the resumption of police activity • With the inevitable traffic confusion related to the introduction of the B Line service it seems equally inevitable illegal turns will increase • It would not be satisfactory to remove the turn restriction making Harrison Street a ‘rat‐run’ to avoid Rangers Road/Yeo Street

Hardcopy Submission 36 I think the current buses on the 225 route should be changed to smaller community size buses as the
large buses are difficult for the drivers to navigate the roundabouts, narrow streets, and parked cars.
Smaller buses are used as community buses by Mosman and North Sydney councils and would seem to
be cheaper to buy and maintain. I have never seen a bus on the route carry more than about 15‐20
people even in peak hours.

Email Submission 67 Bus transport ‐ along Military Road is satisfactory but for us to get to the Wycombe and Military Road

considerable walk. This is not a practical long‐term solution. In our case, if the Cremorne Point 225 bus
were continued up to Military Road and linked into the prevailing bus route to the city, then this would
be a valuable solution. An alternative is to simply drive into the city. However, this which would then
result in increased congestion and pollution in the city.

Email Submission 67 Ferry Access ‐ We live at Cremorne Point and can easily travel by the F6 ferry to/from the City. We can
walk to Old Cremorne Wharf but the frequency of the ferry service to this wharf is very unsatisfactory
and on many occasions, it is once per hour. This applies to the Musgrave Street wharf as well. The F6
route Mosman to Cremorne Point ferries often go via Taronga Park Zoo and then to Circular Quay
without stopping at the Old Cremorne or Musgrave St wharfs. If they could stop at these wharfs the
service would be much improved. This would increase patronage with almost no increase in marginal
cost .

would say 70% of the time it is late, a no show or shows up at the exact time as the 8:25am bus. It is
becoming extremely frustrating and I'm a little confused. It is also frustrating that the 263 does not
actually stop at a train station on the way to the city. There should be a bus that drops you to Milsons

Email Submission 5 Military Road ‐ partner with Mosman Council for a Federally funded light rail which links back to North
Sydney train station. Make the whole stretch no parking to make more room. It doesn't matter that
traffic will flow onto neighbouring roads, what about the poor people who have to live near Military
Road? They need relief. Educate the community to get out of their cars. Parking anywhere in the local
government area is at saturation point anyway. This will deliver benefits to the shopping precinct which
is dead and getting worse. It is no surprise that Grosvenor St Neutral Bay has become a vibrant strip as
who wants dine out and enjoy life on a motorway? Use the value capture finance model which is being
used elsewhere and while interest rates are low. This is an opportunity for council to show leadership
and make up for some of the mistakes of previous governments who tore up our previous tram system.

Email Submission 7 I am writing in response to your recent correspondence about the transport and parking consultation.
This is very timely as I had been meaning to notify someone of my frustrations about one particular
traffic problem in Neutral Bay.
I’m sure you will be aware of the chaos each morning at the Ben Boyd/Military Road cross junction and
the near impossibility to safely turn right from Ben Boyd on to Military Road. The right green arrow is
very short and often made shorter by the pedestrian crossing coinciding with the green light. Traffic
goes through the red light in every direction making this junction very dangerous for traffic and
pedestrians. Often even if the light is green there is no room to turn right because of congestion.
Absolute chaos every morning between 8 and 9am. I’m not sure what the solution is but something
must be done. I am amazed there are not more accidents here.

Online Submission 81 The entire area is not at all cycle friendly. Military Road in particular is a death trap for cyclists due to
the absence of a cycle lane, inadequate traffic lights and disorganised bus routes.
Travelling west on Military, the turn into Ben Boyd Road is greater than a 90 degree angle, not suitable
for a large vehicle such as a bus to comfortably make the turn without posing a danger to other road
users. The bus has to use 2 lanes on approach to the turn, and still must be careful to avoid any vehicles
waiting at the lights to exit Ben Boyd Road. The driver would be watching he doesn't clip these vehicles
whilst making the tight turn, that his attention would not be fully focused on any pedestrians or cyclists
approaching on his left side.
Not a single bus service has the Ben Boyd turn off Military as part of its route, preferring the more bus
friendly turn into Wycombe Road, then Yeo Street to join Ben Boyd Road, yet buses are frequently seen
turning up Ben Boyd from Military and this must be stopped.
Any person waiting to use the pedestrian crossing at Ben Boyd Road would see a bus coming along
Military Road and think it is OK to cross, safe in the knowledge that a turn here is not a designated
route of any bus, but the bus drivers seem to make their own rules, and as I mentioned earlier the
likelihood of the bus driver seeing something approach from the left is slim as his focus is on not hitting
the vehicles to his right.
I was also told by the police that because of the design of a bus, the drivers vision out of the left side of
a bus is obscured and they cannot see much, but I was also told by an ex bus driver that this is not true,
but either way he would be too busy to look left anyway.
Another problem at this junction is the traffic lights. There is no left turn filter, and whilst the traffic
lights are green the pedestrian crossing lights is also green. Again this is a problem for a bus with the
driver too focused on not hitting the vehicles to his right hand side. A left turn filter which remains red
whilst the pedestrian crossing is green is needed here.
My partner was killed by a bus here, he had a green man to cross the road but the bus turned in
anyway. The driver did not even notice that his left side had slammed into him as he was too busy
checking his right side would make the turn. My partner was dragged the length of the bus before the
drivers attention was back to the whole bus.
There have been many cyclist fatalities in the area, how many more must die before provisions are
made to make it cycle safe? Military Road must be one of the busiest roads in Sydney, cycle lanes
should be a no brainer. Every major city in the world provides for its cyclists in such close proximity to
the city centre, it's about time Sydney joined them.

Online Submission 82 I live in Rangers Road (number 33), on the south‐eastern corner of the Murdoch Street intersection.
There is no crossing on this very dangerous side of the street ‐ there are crossings on the other three
corners. It has to be one of the most dangerous place to cross in all of the municipality. Cars do not
slow as they turn left from Rangers into Murdoch. Most days my neighbours and I agree we play
dodgem cars, but it's really playing with our lives. I would hate to think of unattended children trying
to cross here.
I cross the road here at least twice a day on my journey to Military Road and the Neutral Bay Junction
bus stop. Currently I work in North Sydney and prefer public transport to clogging the road with
another motor vehicle. As an older person (not elderly ‐ and not yet retired) I find it increasingly
difficult to cross. Motorists apparently do not know the road rule about pedestrian right‐of‐way at an
intersection where there are no crossing lines or lights. I am regularly abused for dodging vehicles ‐
and I admit the motorist receives as good as they give. The volume of traffic isn't the problem ‐ it's the
lack of a crossing.

through this intersection? Potential options could include: prohibiting left‐turn movements from Ben
Boyd Rd onto Military Rd for northbound vehicles on Ben Boyd Rd. These vehicles could instead be
directed to turn left at Yeo St and then right at Watson St. This would provide a dedicated lane for

Online Submission 33 My husband works in the city and catches the train from Milsons Point Station or regular walks over the
Harbour Bridge to work morning and night. I do not work but use the train and Ferry for transport as
well as our car. We find the public transport is working much better since we moved into the area 4 yrs
ago. Our main concern is we find it difficult to park in our street, Doris off Whaling Street, mainly at
night when all residents are returning home after work. Our problem is that residents as well as Unit
Parkers are inconsiderate when parking, not parking up to the beginning of driveways or not parking up
to the next car. They just park in middle of two cars, where two cars could actually have parked,
reducing parking in the street by as often as 3 or 4 cars. Is there any way the parking between
driveways could be marked by paint to show people a car space area to park in making the most of
parking in the street. This applies to other streets off Whaling where there is no marked parking. It
would just make people think a little more and be more considerate to other parkers. We do not
require metre parking or longer restriction parking, just painted lines around the whole area to give
more parking in the Tapas 6 area.

78 Problem: Intersection on border with Mosman Council, Rangers Rd and Spofforth St ‐ problem is
Mosman peninsular, cars heading up Murdoch St are favoured. Cars have to give way to traffic (they
have stop sign) when coming North of Spofforth St, they are giving way to traffic towards City on
Rangers Rd. The nearby shops aggravate this. Solution: roundabout? A small one so buses can travel
over on tight turn; relatively cheap solution.

Business Activity
...improve community safety by creating slow speed road environments where more vulnerable road users are protected from higher impact road users and the number of crashes and severity of injuries is minimised?
...improve personal security through improved streetscape design, increased street activity and passive surveillance?
...provide social spaces where human interaction is given the highest priority and the negative impacts of traffic are minimised, promoting incidental social interaction, increasing civic pride, reducing anti-social behaviour and community policing requirements?
…provide infrastructure that encourages healthy and active lifestyle/travel choices?
...reduce demand for parking and / or provide more equitable access to existing parking supply?
...encourage the use of low greenhouse gas emitting transport options?
...encourage the use of travel modes that have minimal impact on air quality, water quality and noise?
...encourage the use of travel options with lower social, health and economic costs and higher social, health and economic benefits?
...apply travel demand management principles to minimise traffic demand and associated traffic congestion?
...increase business opportunities by improving the look/amenity of North Sydney throughout the day and in to the evening while, at the same time, reducing the whole of life cost of transport networks, including the ongoing costs associated with cleaning and maintaining assets?
