1.0 Introduction

This Parking Needs Study has been prepared by Transcore on behalf of Southcare Inc. The subject of this report is the proposed redevelopment of the Southcare Manning site at 49-53 Bickley Crescent, Manning. As detailed in Figure 1, the proposed development site is located on either side of Bickley Crescent, between Pether Road and Manning Road. The site is located in the City of South Perth.

Figure 1: Location of subject site

The site currently occupies a range of community and residential uses, including existing Southcare Facilities. It is proposed to redevelop a large portion of the site to construct two, 4-level buildings with approximately 82 apartments and a total of 84 on-site parking bays plus 23 on-street visitor parking bays along Bickley Crescent. The proposed residential development is intended to cater for ‘over 55s’. Based on the information provided to Transcore, and according to the Approved Town Planning Scheme Amendment No.45 gazetted by the City of South Perth in November 2015, a proposed Aged Car or Dependent Persons’ Dwelling Development on this site may be granted an approval if the Council is satisfied that their requirements outlined in the Scheme Amendment are all met. Item 5.4(13)(b)(vi) of the Scheme Amendment requires the following studies to be undertaken: • Task 1 - Parking Needs Study; and,

t17.057.pg.r01a Page 2

• Task 2 - Traffic and Access Statement. Transcore has been commissioned to undertake the Parking Needs Study for the proposed development. As part of this study, a parking utilisation survey of the existing Southcare facilities and parking on Bickley Crescent was undertaken to establish the existing availability of car parking in the vicinity of the subject site. The methodology, analysis and results of the parking survey are documented in this report. The parking needs study was undertaken through a collaborative process with parking survey results and parking analysis informing development of the site plan and the proposed parking allocation.

2.0 Existing Site Use and Parking

2.1 Existing Site Uses

The western portion of the site currently accommodates the Southcare HQ office building at the southern end, and three residential dwellings. The eastern portion of the site currently accommodates three buildings associated with Southcare’s existing operation and facilities, which include:

• Social Centre; • Services, programs and administration; • Volunteers centre; • Aboriginal family Support; • Emergency Relief; • Financial Counselling; and, • Shop.

2.2 Parking Survey Area

The parking survey area included all the off-site car parking currently provided within the Southcare facilities and the on-street parking on Bickley Crescent between Pether Road and Manning Road. The survey area was divided into 9 zones labelled A to I in Figure 2.

2.3 Parking Survey Methodology

A site visit was undertaken on Thursday 30 March 2017 during which a detailed parking inventory was established of the car parking provided within the survey area. A parking utilisation survey of the parking zones was then undertaken during the anticipated peak parking demand period on a typical weekday between 9:00am and 3:00pm. The survey period was selected on the basis of the peak operating times of the Southcare facilities. Parking utilisation was surveyed in 30 minute intervals.

2.4 Parking Inventory

The parking inventory recorded a total parking supply of around 82 existing parking spaces within the study area (excluding parking in the three residential properties). As detailed in Table 1, some ACROD parking bays are provided in the survey area. 50 parking spaces are provided off-street including 17 bays in the Southcare HQ building (Zone A) and approximately 32 on-street parking spaces are currently provided on Bickley Crescent.

2.5 Parking Utilisation

A parking occupancy or utilisation survey of the parking zones within the survey area was undertaken on Friday 31 March 2017 as detailed in the survey methodology. The detailed parking survey results for each parking zone are presented in Appendix B of this report. The parking utilisation survey results show that peak parking demand was recorded at 11:00am, with the study area parking being 45% utilised. There was a minimum of 45 bays vacant at any time during the survey period. The surveyed parking utilisation is summarised in Table 2.

Table 2: Surveyed parking utilisation on Friday 31/03/17

The survey results indicate that the existing site parking is under-utilised. Based on site observations, most of the existing on-street parking demand was also associated with the Southcare facilities. No existing parking supply issues were identified during the course of the survey.

3.0 Proposed Development

3.1 Development Description

As detailed in the demolition plan shown in Figure 3, it is proposed to demolish the three existing residential dwellings on the western portion of the site, and all of the existing Southcare buildings, facilities and amenities on the eastern portion of the site.

Figure 3: Proposed demolition plan

It is proposed to construct two residential apartment buildings entailing:

• A combined total of 82 residential apartment units over four levels – ▪ 33 units within the western building; and, ▪ 49 units within the eastern building.

• Small Café / Deli on the ground level on the eastern portion of the site;

• Bin stores;

• Total of 84 residential on-site car parking bays; and,

• Redevelopment of Bickley Crescent which will result in 23 on-street car parking bays and a paved, shared pedestrian space at the southern end of the street.

As detailed in Figure 4, access to the eastern building car park is provided via a single crossover on Pether Road at the eastern end of the site. A total of 51 car parking bays are provided in the eastern building car park. Access to the western building car park is provided via a single crossover on Pether Road at the western end of the site. A total of 33 car parking bays are provided in the eastern building car park. A minimum of one car bay will be allocated to each residential unit (82 bays allocated to 82 units), and one car bay will be allocated to the café tenancy.

Figure 4: Proposed access and car park layout

The existing Southcare HQ building will be retained at the south western corner of the site. An additional two tandem car bays will be provided within the existing Southcare HQ car park, increasing the total HQ site parking provision to 19 bays. The paved area at the southern end of Pether Road is proposed to function as a shared space, which will accommodate vehicle access to the Southcare HQ building, pedestrian movements between the two buildings, and to function as a vehicle turn-around area for cars to turn around at the cul-de-sac.

t17.057.pg.r01a Page 9

The proposed development plans are included in Appendix A.

3.2 Post-Development Southcare Facilities and Operations

Based on the advice provided to Transcore, some of Southcare’s existing facilities and services provided in the eastern portion of the site will either be discontinued or relocated to another site. Some of the existing operations will be consolidated at the Southcare HQ building which will be retained as part of the redevelopment. Based on the information provided to Transcore, the Southcare HQ administration building will have 16 full time staff, ten of which are parked on site all day, and six of which will be working off-site, and will be in and out throughout the day. An additional six vehicles will be stored at the HQ site as following:

• 1 coaster bus;

• 2 minivans;

• 2 utes; and,

• 1 car.

The operating hours for Southcare are 8:30am to 4:30pm, Monday to Friday.

4.0 Parking Assessment

4.1 Proposed Parking Allocation

A total of 126 car parking bays are proposed to be provided within the study area. The following car parking allocation is proposed for the study area:

• Residential: 83 bays for residents in the western and eastern car parks (including 9 ACROD bays).

• Café Parking: 1 bay allocated to the tenant in the eastern car park.

• Southcare HQ: 19 bays allocated for the exclusive use of Southcare.

• Bickley Crescent: 23 public on-street bays.

To estimate the actual combined parking demand of the proposed redevelopment at different times of the day, a temporal parking demand analysis was undertaken and is presented in Section 4.2 of this report.

4.2 Estimated Parking Demand (Temporal Analysis)

The estimated maximum parking demand for each component of the proposed site uses has been calculated based on the number of staff and residential units, and/or parking demand rates as set out in the RTA NSW Guide to Traffic Generating Developments and the ITE Parking Generation Manual 3rd Edition. The maximum parking demand for each component is calculated as following: Residential

• ITE Surveyed Demand: 0.41 bays per unit (35 bays); or

• RTA Recommended Provision Rate: 2 bays per three units (55 bays). Based on the above engineering manuals, the anticipated actual demand for residential car parking would be between 35 bays to 55 bays. The temporal parking analysis assumes the higher parking demand of 55 bays. Residential Visitor Parking

• RTA Recommended Provision Rate: 1 space per five units (17 bays).

t17.057.pg.r01a Page 11

t17.057.pg.r01a Page 12

Southcare Parking

• 16 staff bays; plus,

• 6 spaces for vehicle storage.

• Total peak demand = 22 spaces. Café Parking

• Estimated maximum demand of 3 car bays as most customers would be residential visitors, nearby residents or staff from Southcare.

In total, the peak demand for the study area is anticipated to be in the order of 97 parking spaces. As a sensitivity analysis, if the car ownership levels at the proposed residential development were higher than typical for developments of this nature, we can assume a residential parking demand of 1 bay per unit (82 bays). This would increase the total combined peak parking demand to 124 bays. The proposed total parking supply within the study area is 126 bays in the post-development situation, which is sufficient to accommodate the combined peak parking demand of all proposed uses. However, as the peak demand periods for the component land uses do not completely overlap, a daily parking demand profile was developed for each component to estimate the combined parking demand variation throughout the day. As detailed in Table 3, the maximum combined study area parking demand is anticipated to occur at around 11:00am on weekdays. A maximum parking demand for 94 spaces is expected at this time. During the peak demand time, all parking for Southcare will be contained on-site (19 bays). During the peak parking demand time for Southcare HQ, up to three vehicles may park on-street. At this time, there would be low demand for residential visitor parking so this would not be an issue.
