RANDWICK CITY COUNCIL TRAFFIC COMMITTEE

The following information is provided so that you may be aware of the structure

and operation of the Randwick City Traffic Committee.

The Randwick Traffic Committee is a Committee of Randwick City Council

but not one set up under the Local Government Act.

Council has been delegated certain powers, from Roads and Maritime

Services (RMS), with regard to traffic matters upon its local roads. A

condition of this delegation is that Council must take into account the

Traffic Committee recommendations.

Recommendations in this document may either activate the formal

delegation from RMS to the Council, or not activate this delegation.

Items which activate the delegation are indicated with the initials (AD)

below the heading.

There are four permanent members of the Traffic Committee, each of

whom has a single vote only.

The members are: the NSW Police Service, Roads and Maritime

Services (RMS), the Local State Member of Parliament (for the

location of the issue to be voted upon) and Randwick City Council.

Randwick City Council welcomes the public to attend and speak at its

Traffic Committee on issues of concern.

If the Local Member disagrees with any of the Traffic Committee

recommendations, they may appeal to the RMS or the Minister for Roads.

If the Police or the RMS disagrees with any of the Traffic Committee

recommendations, or Council’s resolution on any Traffic Committee

recommendation, they may lodge an appeal with the Sydney Regional

Traffic Committee for determination. The appeal must be lodged in

writing within 14 days of the notification to the members of Council’s

decision on the recommendation.

Any action relative to any issue under appeal must cease until the matter

is determined.

The Sydney Regional Traffic Committee is chaired by an independent

chairperson and submissions and representations are welcomed from all

interested parties.

4.4 BOWRAL STREET, KENSINGTON (C) Event, Road Closure - Temporary

(D02788555 D02788189-DP)(AD)

An application has been received for the temporary closure of the western end of

Bowral Street (from Anzac Parade to Doncaster Avenue), Kensington, in order to

facilitate the St. George Coptic Orthodox Church Community Fete. The closure has

been requested for Saturday, 12 November, 2016, between 6am and 6pm.

A separate request by the applicant is being made to RMS due to the proximity of the

proposed closure to the by Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) controlled Anzac

Parade.


That:

1. Approval to close the western half of Bowral Street, Kensington, on Saturday,

12 November 2016, between 6am and 6pm be granted subject to the proposed

2. The Traffic Control Plan be implemented as per the applicant’s submitted Traffic

Control Plan (TCP); and

3. The affected residents will notified about the closure before the event.


MINUTES 6

4.5 DONCASTER AVENUE, KENSINGTON (C) Road Safety - Speeding

(D02772463-DA)(AD)

Council has received a request from a resident of Doncaster Avenue between Alison

Road and Bowral Street, Kensington, to investigate vehicle speeds in the street due to

safety concerns.

Following resident’s concern, to ascertain the extent of the speeding and volume a

traffic survey was commissioned in October 2016 for a seven day period. The data of

the counts have been presented in following table:

Speed & Traffic Data – Doncaster Avenue, Kensington

Data Northbound Southbound

Weekly 50th%ile speed (km/h) 43.7 46.2


Five day AADT 7907 6452

Seven day AADT 6757 5445

Given that the vehicular speeds are relatively low, no action is recommended, at this

time.


That:

1. The results of the traffic survey for Doncaster Avenue, Kensington, undertaken

in October 2016, be noted; and

2. The person raising concerns about this matter be informed of the results.

4.6 DUDLEY STREET, COOGEE (C) Linemarking – Centrelines

(D02746294-DK) (AD)

Council has been asked to examine road safety at the bend in the road at Dudley

Street/ Byron Street/Thomas Street Coogee, where motorists often travel on the

wrong side of the road creating the possibility of a head-on collision.

A review of the linemarking at the intersection of Dudley Street/Byron Street/Thomas

Street, Coogee, has revealed that the previously existing double centrelines (BB) on

Dudley Street east of Byron Street are no longer visible.


MINUTES 7

Diagram 1: Previous Linemarking at the intersection of

Dudley Street/Byron Street/Thomas Street, circa 2009

It is proposed that the separation line marking be re-installed and extended west of

Byron Street as marked in the plan shown in diagram 2, as the horizontal and vertical

curves on approach to the intersection can cause driver confusion. Under NSW

legislation the dividing barrier lines may be crossed to enter the road, allowing

residents to access their driveways on the northern and southern sides of Dudley

Street.

Although there has been no reported crash at this location from December 2010 to

September 2015, it is proposed to improve traffic safety by installing additional line

marking on Byron Street to highlight the intersection.


MINUTES 8

Diagram 2: Proposed Linemarking at the intersection of

Dudley Street/Byron Street/Thomas Street, Coogee


That:

1. 10 metre length of double separation (BB) lines as detailed in the diagram

attached be installed in Byron Street, to both the north and south of Dudley

Street; and

2. The double centrelines (BB) as detailed in the diagram attached be reinstated in

Dudley Street east of Byron Street and additional 10 metre length of double

separation (BB) lines installed on Dudley Street at the west of Byron Street,

Coogee.

4.7 HIGH STREET, RANDWICK (C) Signage, Parking - Bus Zone

(D02785953-DP) (AD)

Transport for New South Wales (TfNSW) has requested the installation of a Bus Zone

on the south side of High Street, Randwick, commencing 25m east of UNSW Gate 3

and terminating at a point 106m east near UNSW Gate 4. As part of their proposal,

they also suggested that a 25m No Stopping Zone is installed directly east of Gate 3

and another No Stopping zone, approximately 6m long, is installed to the west of

UNSW Gate 3, to aid driver visibility when exiting UNSW.


MINUTES 9

TfNSW are proposing to relocate, commencing 21 November 2016, the University

Route 895 services from Anzac Parade to High Street, Randwick, just east of UNSW

Gate 3. This is necessary as a result of the Light Rail construction on Anzac Parade.

The subject parking area, being the south side of High Street, between UNSW Gate 3

and Gate 4 is currently unrestricted.

In investigating the above request, it is proposed to extend the existing “No Parking”

zone that currently terminates directly east of UNSW Gate 3 access by 25m to the

east. It is also proposed that the new Bus Zone will commence at this point, 25m east

of UNSW Gate 3 access, and terminate 105m to the east, directly west of the UNSW

Gate 4 access.

A “No Parking” restriction is preferential in this area over TfNSW’s suggestion of No

Stopping, as this will allow private vehicles to drop-off passengers in these areas.

Mr Joe Santangelo (UNSW) expressed concern about the likely impacts on traffic flow

of the proposed use of High Street for these buses. He also raised concerns about the

removal of parking adjacent to university accommodation.

Mr Lehmann agreed that the Council would monitor traffic flow, especially during the

afternoon/evening peak period, to ascertain whether the removal of more parking

would be required, due to queued buses in the traffic lane. He also stated that the

loss of these parking spaces to meet the public transport needs of many hundreds or

thousands of bus commuters/students was acknowledged.


That the parking restrictions on the south side of High Street, Randwick, are revised

thus:

Proposed Parking restrictions south side of High Street,

Randwick measured east of the UNSW Gate 3 access

0 - 25m No Parking

25m - 105m Bus Zone


MINUTES 10

4.8 KENSINGTON - LIGHT RAIL PARKING CHANGES (C & H) Signage, Parking - Parking Issues

(F2016/00195-DK)(AD)

As a result of the light rail project hundreds of parking spaces have been removed

from Anzac Parade though parts of Kensington. Randwick Council has commenced

installing angle parking and applying a consistent framework for providing replacement

parking and the relocation of time limited zones as required.

Whilst an increase in parking supply will assist with the parking issue, it must be

introduced concurrently with a parking management strategy. The Council should not

increase parking supply in order to simply meet the needs of students or longer

distance commuters. There must be a system to manage the parking so as to better

meet the needs of the business community and the needs of the local residents.

In order to develop an appropriate parking management regime, parking restrictions

are being examined along the light rail alignments, on a block by block basis. From

this examination we will propose parking management adjustments to meet the needs

of the community. These adjustments may include the following:

Provide short term parking (between 15minutes to 1 hour) closest to the

businesses, i.e. near the intersections of the side streets to the light rail

route

Relocate longer term parking (2 hours) at the far end of the light rail parking

displacement zone.

Provide loading zones near businesses

Residential car parking to be displaced from the light rail parking areas. The

parking displacement zones should have restrictions with permit

exemptions.

Resident parking will be managed with 2 hour parking restrictions in order to

prevent long term parking during the day by commuters and students and

increase the opportunity for residents to park a reasonable walking distance

to their properties.

Adjusted parking proposals for upcoming light rail construction areas will be tabled at

the Traffic Committee meeting for consideration.

Mr Lehmann tabled the handout (Council ref: D02794275) detailing the proposed

parking changes for the side streets of Kensington, near to the Light Rail alignment.

He noted that the tables were quite detailed and he asked the Voting Members to

examine them over the next week and provide feedback, if any.


That:

1. The Voting Members of the Traffic Committee examine the parking proposals,

as tabled and provide feedback, if any, to the Council; and

2. The parking proposals for the side streets of Kensington (near to the Light Rail

alignment), as tabled at the Traffic Committee meeting, be implemented,

noting that minor adjustments may be made following feedback from Voting

Members.


MINUTES 11

4.9 MOUNT STREET, COOGEE (C) Line marking and shared footpath

(D02775703-ST) (AD)

Mount Street between Bream Street and Dolphin Street has been identified as a local

bicycle route where bike riders travel in a mixed traffic environment. There are

currently bicycle logos along the length of Mount Street, except between Bream Street

and Dolphin Street. A small section of this road has been turned into a shared path,

for pedestrians and bike riders, shown in the image below.

To improve this local route it is considered that the following should be installed:

- Three bike logos on Mount Street, between Bream Street and Dolphin

Street.

- Shared path line marking as per the sketch below.

Mr Sangster (representative for the Member for Coogee) sought clarification as to the

signposting of any speed limits on shared paths. He was informed that speed limits

are not delegated to the Council for action and that there were no known complaints

about the speed of cyclists along this short length of shared path.


That the proposed bicycle pavement markings and symbols be installed on Mount

Street, between Bream Street and Dolphin Street, Coogee.


MINUTES 12

4.10 PEROUSE ROAD, RANDWICK (C)

Signage, Parking - Loading Zone

(D02754662-DA) (AD)

A request was received from a business at 54-56 Perouse Road, Randwick, for the

installation of a loading zone at the frontage of the business to facilitate deliveries.

Currently P15mins, 8:30am-6:00pm, Mon-Fri, 8:30am-12:30pm, Sat, parking

restrictions are in place on the western side of Perouse Road, south of St Pauls Street.

Therefore, it is proposed to install a loading zone at this location, as detailed in the

recommendation below.


That the following parking restrictions be installed on the western side of Perouse

Road, south of St Pauls Street, Randwick:

Western side of Perouse Road, Randwick

measured south of St Pauls Street

0.00 – 20.0m No Stopping

20.0 – 35.0m Loading Zone, 7:00am-11:00am, Mon-Sun,

P15mins, 11:00am-6:00pm, Mon-Sun

35.0m-Onwards No Parking

4.11 VARNA STREET, CLOVELLY (C) Signage, Parking - Line marking

(D02760406-DA)(AD)

Council has received requests to improve road safety at the bend in Varna Street at the

intersection with Douglas Street, Clovelly.

Currently there is a 67m double barrier line marking in place along Varna Street,

between the western boundary of 25 Varna Street and eastern boundary of 31A Varna

Street, Clovelly; with No Stopping restrictions on both sides along the entire length of

the BB line marking.

As parking is prohibited on both sides of Varna Street at this section, often the

motorists travel at high speed, and occasionally, northbound and southbound

motorists travel on the wrong side of the road near Douglas Street and Leichhardt

Street intersection.

To improve road safety, it is proposed to install a combination of single separation

lines and BB lines including raised reflective pavement markers (RRPM) on Varna

Street, as per the following concept plan, to guide the motorists to the left side of the

street. Furthermore, by allowing parking on the northern side of Varna Street, near the

park, motorists would likely reduce their speed along this section of road.


MINUTES 13

Mr Tita (RMS) suggested that the proposed parking space on the northern side of

Varna Street be not implemented as it was on the approach to a sweeping bend. He

also requested that the proposed 15m parking space on the eastern side of Varna

Street be reduced in length by 3m so that it did not impinge upon the double

centrelines (as detailed in the modified diagram shown above).


That:

1. The existing 67m long BB line marking be removed and be replaced with a

combination of broken centre lines and BB line marking with raised reflective

pavement markers (RRPM), as per the attached concept plan;

2. The proposed No Stopping zone on the northern side of Varna Street, be

extended from the intersection with Wallace Street easterly then southerly to a

point 3m further south from the proposed double centreline; followed by a 12m

length of unrestricted parking and a continuation of the No Stopping restriction

further southerly and easterly to the intersection of Leichhardt Street; and

3. The residents be notified about the rationale behind the changes.


MINUTES 14

4.12 VICAR STREET, COOGEE (C) Signage, Parking - Works Zone

(D02755572-VC) (AD)


located on the west side of Vicar Street, 25m south of Coogee Bay Road, continuing

20m south in order to facilitate construction works.

The Works Zone is required for approximately twelve months in order to facilitate

construction works. The section of the road is currently signposted with ½P 8am-6pm

with a Mobility Impaired Person’s Parking Space (MIPPS) immediately before the start.


That:


installed on the western side of Vicar Street, southerly from the existing

Mobility Impaired Person’s Parking Space (MIPPS), south of Coogee Bay Road,

Coogee; and


4.13 VICTORY STREET, CLOVELLY (C) Signage, Parking - Works Zone

(D02761863-DK) (AD)


located on the western side of Victory Street, Clovelly, at the frontage of 10 Victory

Street. The Works Zone is required for approximately twelve months to facilitate

construction works.

At present, parking is unrestricted on the western side of Victory Street, whilst the

eastern side is signposted with “No Parking” commencing from the intersection with

Clovelly Road and terminating at a distance of 37m south. The unrestricted parking

spaces in the subject section of Victory Street are highly utilised due to the close

proximity to the beach and cafes at Clovelly Road, therefore the provision of a Works

Zone would provide a safe facility for loading and unloading activities at the subject

site during the construction period.


MINUTES 15


That:


installed on the western side of Victory Street, at the front of 10 Victory Street,

Clovelly; and


4.14 SEASIDE PARADE, SOUTH COOGEE (C) Signage, Parking - Works Zone

(D02767622-DK) (AD)


located on the eastern side of Seaside Parade, South Coogee, at the frontage of 7

Seaside Parade. The Works Zone is required for approximately three months to

facilitate construction works.

At present, parking is unrestricted on both sides of Seaside Parade; therefore the

provision of a Works Zone would provide a safe facility for loading and unloading

activities at the subject site during the construction period.


MINUTES 16


That:

1. A 12m Works Zone, 7:00am–5:00pm, Mon-Fri, 8:00am-5:00pm, Sat, be

installed on the eastern side of Seaside Parade, South Coogee at the frontage of

7 Seaside Parade; and


4.15 TODMAN AVENUE / LENTHALL STREET, KENSINGTON (H) Linemarking – Lane Lines

(D02768610, D02785053-ST)

There have been recent reports of cars travelling outside the lane on Todman Avenue,

between Lenthall Street and Barker Street in the north-west direction. It has been

observed that motorists waiting at the Todman Avenue and Lenthall Street intersection

are accelerating in an effort to pass cars traveling in the inside lane before having to

merge. Often cars would continue to travel outside the lane to avoid or ‘race’ adjacent

traffic. Cyclists seeking to avoid this conflict area have been observed using the

footpath to avoid this intersection.

To discourage this behaviour, it is proposed to install a painted median to encourage

drivers to stay in their lane. This will also protect cyclists, by providing some

separation from the traffic. As part of this investigation RMS has been requested to

look at the signal design at the Todman Avenue and Lenthall Street intersection. The

problem could be partially resolved by changing the north approach lane to a left turn

only lane into Lenthall Street. This could possibly make the road safer for all road

users by establishing a single lane on Todman Avenue, between Lenthall and Barker

Street earlier on.

The sketch below is a concept design of the painted island between Lenthall Street and

Barker Street, subject to traffic control signal changes.

Mr Tita (RMS) asked that this matter be deferred as it was the subject of ongoing

examination within RMS.


That this matter be deferred, pending feedback from RMS.

4.16 ANZAC PARADE, MAROUBRA - CAR PARK (M) Signage, Parking – Mobility Impaired Person’s Parking Space (MIPPS)

(D02731461-VC) (AD)

A request has been received to install Mobility Impaired Persons’ Parking Space

(MIPPS) signs, on the southern side of the Anzac Parade, median island car park, west

of Mason Street, Maroubra. It is considered that the best location would be in car park

spots 145, 147 & 149. There are currently 106 car parking spaces with no MIPPS. This

proposal will provide two MIPPS spaces (including a “share space”) as per AS/NZ

2890.6:2009.


MINUTES 18


That two Mobility Impaired Persons’ Parking Spaces (MIPPS), be installed on the

southern side of the Anzac Parade central median car park, west of Mason Street,

Maroubra, in car park spots 145, 147 & 149, to provide two MIPPS spaces and one

share space.

4.17 ARALUEN STREET, KINGSFORD (M) Event, Road Closure - Temporary

(D02773917-DA) (AD)

The residents of Araluen Street, Kingsford, will be holding their Christmas Street Party,

on Saturday, 26 November, 2016, between 4pm till 9pm.

The residents of Araluen Street requested consideration of a road closure of Araluen

4.18 BARWON CRESCENT, MATRAVILLE (M) Event, Road Closure - Temporary

(D02767524-DP) (AD)

In recent years, the community in the vicinity of Barwon Crescent, Matraville, has

provided Christmas light displays. These displays have attracted many hundreds of

visitors per night, resulting in significant localised traffic congestion.

It order to mitigate this, in past years we have introduced a temporary northbound

one-way flow along Barwon Crescent, from the “driveway treatment” adjacent to no.

31 through to the “driveway treatment” adjacent to no. 11 Barwon Crescent,

Matraville.

Sadly, the amount of residents illuminating their properties has diminished over the

last few years and we have received feedback that the one-way is no longer

required. In order to verify the above, the residents were surveyed to ascertain their

lighting intensions and their support for the temporary one-way flow.

The survey was sent to thirty-three households and fourteen responded. Four

households advised that they would be illuminating their property. Six supported the

one-way and eight did not support the one-way.

As a result of the resident survey, we will not be installing the one-way flow on

Barwon Crescent this year.

There is a “Carols by Candlelight” event being held in Barwon Park, on Saturday, 10

December, 2016, 5pm to 9pm.

It is proposed that a temporary road closure be put in place along the length of

Barwon Crescent in the evening due to possible conflict between vehicles and

pedestrians.

Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) has previously approved Traffic Management

Plans for the temporary road closure.


That approval be granted for the Council implementing a temporary road closure on

Barwon Crescent, Matraville, on Saturday, 10 December, 2016, between 7:00am and

9:00pm, subject to the following conditions:

1. The Council prepares a traffic control plan in accordance with the relevant

guidelines and standards showing the location of barricades, ‘Detour’ signs,

‘Road Closed Ahead’ signs, and other relevant signs;

2. The Council shall close the roads in accordance with the approved traffic

control plan, unless otherwise directed by Police;


MINUTES 20

3. The applicant shall not occupy the carriageway or footway of the road until the

road closure has been effected, in accordance with the approved plan;

4. All traffic control devices will be installed in accordance with Australian

Standard 1742.3;

5. No fixtures of a permanent nature shall be located on the public way;

6. At all times, access to adjoining premises in the proposed street closure shall

6. Parking Control Signage At Intersections (AD)

The Council regularly receives requests for action to be taken with regard to vehicles

being parked illegally at intersections. Such vehicles block sightlines to and from

vulnerable pedestrians or bike riders. They can also obscure motorists’ views of

approaching vehicles, and, they can create difficulties for fire engines, garbage trucks

or other large service vehicles which need to access the neighbourhood.

To ensure compliance with the legally mandated parking prohibitions at intersections,

it is recommended that No Stopping signage be installed as per the following table:

Item No.
