INTRODUCTION

Background

Council has developed the Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy to holistically manage traffic and parking across the North Sydney Local Government Area (LGA).

An important component of the Strategy is the delivery of appropriate Traffic and Parking Area Scheme (TAPAS) Action Plans. TAPAS Action Plans are area-wide traffic plans which take into account the current and future traffic and parking situation in the area and recommend traffic and parking measures to protect, maintain and improve access and parking.

There are a total of seven TAPAS zones within the study area, as indicated in Figure 1. SMEC has been commissioned by Council to develop TAPAS Action Plans for zones 1, 2 and 3, which are located to the west of the Pacific Highway, as shown in Figure 1. This report focuses on Zone 3.

Figure 1: TAPAS Action Plan Study Area

Community Strategic Plan

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page vi

The Community Strategic Plan is Council’s most important strategic document. It provides a planning and action framework and is part of Council’s integrated planning, reporting and decision making framework.

The Community Strategic Plan is designed to respond to community agreed priorities for the decade 2013 to 2023. The priorities and strategies will help manage inevitable change while protecting what the community values most. The priorities were identified through a community engagement program.

The Council’s land use, infrastructure planning, social, environmental and economic plans are all interconnected, allowing the Council to plan holistically for the future.

The Community Strategic Plan recognises the community’s desire for Council to maximise parking and improve the way it is managed and to expand community engagement to ensure the Council is hearing from all stakeholders. In this regard, the development of the TAPAS Action Plans recognises the demand for parking and takes account of traffic and parking issues raised by the community in the development of measures.

Study Objectives

The primary goal of the study is to create an area-based TAPAS Action Plan for each of the TAPAS zones, in accordance with the North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy. The key objectives of the TAPAS Action Plan, as identified in the project brief, are as follows:

Identify the existing traffic, parking, walking, cycling and public transport situation in the TAPAS zone;

Identify future traffic demand as a result of increased density and development;

Identify the traffic and parking needs of the community based on community engagement feedback and Council’s parking strategies;

Identify existing Local Area Traffic Management (LATM) devices and parking controls in the TAPAS zone, including turn restrictions; and

Prepare a Traffic and Parking Plan, including comprehensive maps for the TAPAS zone, which include measures to ameliorate impacts on residential areas and to ensure safety. The Plans should include a list of projects supplemented by a map showing the location of each project.

Data Collection and Review

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page vii

The data review and collection process has involved desk top review of a range of information found online, as well as documents and reports that have been provided by Council for consideration in the study. Such information includes, but is not limited to the following:

Crash data within the study area;

Previous pedestrian and bike plans/ reports/ studies;

Relevant traffic and speed survey count data;

Relevant parking data and information provided by Council;

Pedestrian and vehicle turning count data conducted by Council;

Data relating to recent or likely future significant developments in the area; and

Traffic and parking studies and reports relevant to the TAPAS zone under consideration.

Community Engagement Feedback

North Sydney Council is committed to community engagement to ensure the Council is hearing from all stakeholders.

To this end, feedback from community engagement undertaken by the Council regarding a wide range of traffic and parking matters has been reviewed by the study team. This information has been used to guide and inform the development of measures that will be included in the relevant TAPAS Action Plans to address issues raised by the community.

Detail concerning the development of the TAPAS Action Plans is discussed in Section 5 of this report.

Literature Review

A literature review has been undertaken of National, State Government and Council policies, standards and guidelines, as well as additional documents, studies and information provided by North Sydney Council, which will inform the development of the Traffic and Parking Area Scheme Action Plans. For purpose of this report, these policies and documents are considered in the following sections.

Strategic Planning Context

Disability Discrimination Act, 1992 One of the key aspects of the Federal Disability Discrimination Act (1992) is the provision of equal services to all. The act legislates the right for equal participation of all members of the community in daily life and is composed of three topics: equality, independence and functionality. The objectives of the act include the following:

To eliminate, as far as possible, discrimination against persons on the ground of disability;

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page viii

To ensure that persons with disabilities have the same rights to equality as the rest of the community; and

To promote recognition and acceptance within the community of the principle that persons with disabilities have the same fundamental rights as the rest of the community.

As such, proposed TAPAS measures should provide equal access for all, wherever possible. North Sydney Council should aim to accommodate as many people as possible (including those with disability) as effectively as possible within available budgets. As further improvements to public infrastructure and facilities are made, more people with disability will benefit.

It is recognised that a lack of consideration of these users by anyone in the design and delivery chain makes it difficult for all who follow, particularly the end users. This study’s objectives are in line with the objectives set out in the Act.

Commonwealth Disability Standards for Accessible Public Transport The Disability Discrimination Act 1992 seeks to provide equity for people with disabilities, which includes suitable access to public transport services. The purpose of the Commonwealth Disability Standards for Accessible Public Transport is to ensure that public transport operators and providers remove discrimination from public transport services. The standards prescribe certain sections of various Australian Standards and include specific requirements for access paths, manoeuvring areas, ramps, surfaces, handrails, lighting, street furniture, bus stops and other infrastructure. This study incorporates these principles with attention being placed in and around public transport infrastructure, including existing and proposed rail stations.

NSW Long Term Transport Master Plan Transport for NSW published the NSW Long Term Transport Master Plan in 2012. The plan includes the objectives of increasing use of alternative modes of transport for short, local trips to achieve improved environmental outcomes, health benefits and to reduce traffic congestion.

When homes and jobs are within walking distance of each other and within easy walking distance of public transport, accessibility to jobs and services increases and commuting is easier. More people walking, or cycling to catch the train, bus or ferry also means less pressure on town centre streets, busy bus services and commuter car parking. When planning new developments, the surrounding transport infrastructure should have a network of connections that consider:

Personal safety and security, including adequate lighting and activated public spaces;

Adequate footpath and cycle path widths;

Safe and convenient crossings of roads at intersections and midblock locations;

Convenient and legible access to public transport; and

Good signage and way-finding to support efficient movement.

The NSW Long Term Transport Master Plan is mostly applicable to greenfield areas such that the required infrastructure for alternative modes of transport can be incorporated. Nevertheless, the objectives outlined in the Master Plan are all relevant and directly applicable to infrastructure for such users throughout the study area. These objectives have therefore been adopted, where possible.

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page ix

Transport for NSW – Sydney’s Walking Future This strategic document provides assurances regarding the following components, representing a step towards an integrated transport system in NSW.

Promotion of walking for transport, including signage on walking routes and improved information online and at interchanges to help customers to plan their journey;

Support the connection of people to places through safe walking networks around centres and public transport interchanges;

Engagement with partners across government, with councils, non-government organisations and the private sector to maximise effectiveness of actions;

Promotion of the many benefits of walking for health and well-being, the environment and communities;

Investment in new walking links that connect people to places and public transport with adequate facilities;

The Transport Access Program will continue to deliver benefits to all pedestrians getting to, from and around public transport interchanges. Upgrades will improve pedestrian safety, personal security and amenity;

Engagement with and support councils to deliver cost effective improvements to local walking networks;

The needs of pedestrians will be prioritised in the planning, design and construction of new transport and urban development projects;

Pedestrian safety will be improved through a new Pedestrian Safety Strategy, which will encompass all existing safety programs and also explore new measures; and

Support community based initiatives that promote walking as a vital part of the transport mix and get people walking more for transport.

This study is consistent with the principles outlined in this document as they support growth linked to safety and comfort for pedestrians, while encouraging the integration of different modes of transport. The intention to improve accessibility throughout the LGA will act towards achieving the above objectives, albeit predominantly indirectly as a result of improved infrastructure and accessibility.

Transport NSW Disability Action Plan 2012-2017 Transport for NSW funds specific programs to deliver pedestrian facilities like bridges over busy roads, pedestrian crossings, fencing and shared paths that are used by many pedestrians (as well as cyclists) for transport, exercise and recreation. Public education campaigns also target key risk groups such as older road users and the safe operation of motorised wheelchairs and mobility scooters. The mobility and safety of pedestrians at public transport interchanges is an area of increasing focus.

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page x

There is an expectation that mobility plans are prepared for all transport interchanges at the design phase to ensure that customers can move safely between modes of transport. This study takes into consideration the need to facilitate connectivity for pedestrians to and from public transport interchanges.

NSW Road Safety Strategy NSW Road Safety Strategy was prepared in 2012 by Transport for NSW. The strategy covers the potential to address fatal and serious injury crashes on the road network through improved intersection design, eliminating or shielding road users from road side objects or opposing vehicles and by considering pedestrians and bicycle riders particularly in urban areas. The NSW Safer Roads program targets infrastructure safety works programs including safety barriers, highway route reviews, local roads, pedestrian safety measures and motorcycle recreational routes.

During the development of TAPAS Action Plans cognisance is given to the intentions and recommended measures listed in the NSW Road Safety Strategy. At the same time, it is recognised that many of the measures may not be applicable or appropriate, given that, for example, an “innovative technology solution” may not be required or identified as beneficial/ realistic within the LGA.

NSW Walking Strategy In September 2011, the NSW Government released NSW 2021 A Plan to Make NSW Number One. This set of documents includes a target to increase walking for short trips and a commitment to develop a NSW Walking Strategy. Walking programs were also reviewed as part of the Long Term Transport Masterplan for NSW. “Sydney's Walking Future, Connecting People and Places” was subsequently released by Transport for NSW. This study is in line with both strategies as it recommends realistic measures to encourage walking within the LGA.

NSW Ageing Strategy 2020 The NSW Ageing Strategy released in 2012 identifies people aged over 65 as the fastest growing population group in NSW. An estimated 2 million community transport trips are provided each year to help older people access recreation, shopping, medical care, community services and social activities in NSW. This travel demand will continue to grow with this population group forecast to double by 2050. As a user group, older pedestrians are generally over represented in fatal crashes. It is therefore necessary to promote safe walking routes that are designed with consideration of older aged groups.

Local Planning Context

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xi

North Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2013 The Local Environmental Plan aims to make local environmental planning provisions for land in North Sydney in accordance with the relevant environmental planning Act. The key aims of the Plan are as follows:

to promote development that is appropriate to its context and enhances the amenity of the North Sydney community and environment;

to ensure that new development is compatible with the desired future character of an area in terms of bulk, scale and appearance;

to maintain a diversity of activities while protecting residential accommodation and local amenity;

to ensure that new development on foreshore land does not adversely affect the visual qualities of that foreshore land when viewed from Sydney Harbour and its tributaries;

to ensure that new development does not adversely affect residential amenity in terms of visual and acoustic privacy, solar access and view sharing, and to maintain and provide for an increase in dwelling stock, where appropriate;

to maintain a diversity of employment, services, cultural and recreational activities;

to ensure that non-residential development does not adversely affect the amenity of residential properties and public places, in terms of visual and acoustic privacy, solar access and view sharing;

to maintain waterfront activities and ensure that those activities do not adversely affect local amenity and environmental quality;

to maintain and protect natural landscapes, topographic features and existing ground levels;

to minimise stormwater run-off and its adverse effects and improve the quality of local waterways;

to identify and protect the natural, archaeological and built heritage of North Sydney and ensure that development does not adversely affect its significance; and

to provide for the growth of a permanent resident population and encourage the provision of a full range of housing, including affordable housing.

North Sydney Development Control Plan 2013 The purpose of the Development Control Plan is to supplement the Local Environment Plan and provide more detailed provisions to guide future development, such that impacts on the community and environment are minimised. The key aims of the Plan are as follows:

Ensure that development positively contributes to the quality of the natural and built environments;

Encourage development that contributes to the quality of the public domain;

Ensure that development is economically, socially and environmentally sustainable;

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xii

Ensure future development has consideration for the needs of all members of the community;

Ensure development positively responds to the qualities of the site and its context;

Ensure development positively responds to the character of the surrounding area; and

Ensure that the aims of Council’s 2020 Vision – North Sydney Community Strategic Plan are achieved.

It is recognised that increased traffic flow, congestion and parking demand leads to reduced levels of service for public transport through longer journey times, and loss of fleet efficiency. For pedestrians, increased traffic means more difficulty in walking and increased noise levels on major roads. This can result in roads that are intimidating environments for pedestrians. These conditions can also lead to loss in residential amenity and increased use of private vehicles, as alternative transport modes become less attractive.

The objectives of the Plan are therefore also to ensure that:

existing levels of traffic generation are contained and reduced;

public transport, including walking and cycling, is the main form of travel mode;

parking is adequate and managed in a way that maintains pedestrian safety and the quality of the public domain whilst minimising traffic generation;

parking is limited to minimise impacts on surrounding areas;

parking is accessible to all user groups;

minimal impacts occur on the provision of on-street parking;

ensure consideration is given to the provision of bicycle parking and facilities; and

the actions of the Metropolitan Plan for Sydney 2036 are implemented.

The integration of engineering considerations with planning, architecture and landscaping is important for the purpose of servicing the future infrastructure needs of the North Sydney Local Government Area.

North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy The North Sydney Council Local Government Area is one of the most highly urbanised areas in Australia. North Sydney Council is experiencing a notable increase in traffic and parking demand. This demand is being caused by an increase in car usage by the existing population, an increase in the number of workers and visitors to the area and an increase in residential and commercial development in the area.

This increasing demand for traffic and parking has instigated the need for the Council to develop an Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy, which is the guiding document for the way Council manages traffic and parking across the area both now and into the future. The purpose of the Strategy is to:

Provide vision, goals and targets for parking and traffic management in the LGA;

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xiii

Provide a strategic approach to current issues and needs for the management of traffic and parking across the LGA;

Ensure that traffic and parking is balanced to meet the needs of road users, particularly residents and businesses;

Ensure that traffic and parking is managed is a sustainable manner; and

Provide a management framework for consultation, monitoring and evaluation.

The development of the Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy is aimed at creating a more integrated, strategic and proactive approach to traffic and parking management across the area. To do this, the Traffic and Parking Area Scheme (TAPAS) has been formulated.

In North Sydney, TAPAS are a fundamental tool for traffic calming and parking planning at the local level. They consider neighbourhood traffic and parking related issues within the context of the overall road network within each TAPAS zone.

The benefits of the establishment of TAPAS areas are as follows:

Major traffic and parking issues can be assessed on a holistic area wide basis, taking into account metropolitan transport issues and requirements;

Traffic and parking management will shift from a reactive (current) approach to a proactive approach. Instead of waiting for issues to be brought to Council’s attention, the TAPAS will identify major issues and propose solutions;

Provide a more unified approach to traffic and parking and improves planning and coordination issues in traffic and parking management as both traffic and parking are intrinsically related;

Traffic and parking plans can be tailored to meet the needs and expectation of the local community;

Traffic and parking consultation areas are based on Council’s Precinct System – which assists in community engagement and consultation;

The ability to prioritise area-wide traffic and parking facilities for budget allocation and implementation; and

The TAPAS approach rationalises a number of Council’s existing complex processes for managing traffic and parking. The rationalisation and simplification of these processes will lead to better decision making and a more efficient use of Council’s resources.

All major traffic and parking changes will be considered, designed, prioritised and implemented as part of TAPAS studies and Action Plans. As discussed in Section 1.1, the purpose of this study is to develop TAPAS for Zone 3.

North Sydney Integrated Cycling Strategy North Sydney Council has a goal to increase cycling as a sustainable transport option. Increasing cycling can also help to reduce traffic congestion and demand for parking; reduce air and noise pollution; improve community health and wellbeing; and create opportunities for community interaction and connectedness.

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xiv

Cycling in North Sydney is currently limited by an incomplete and disconnected cycle network. Gaps and difficult sections in the network discourage potential cyclists and lessen the safety and amenity of those riding in the area. Members of the North Sydney community have told Council that they would like to cycle for everyday transport, but that they feel unable to do so due to poor network connections and concerns about safety.

To improve the overall cycling network and increase cycling participation, Council has produced the Integrated Cycling Strategy. The goals of the Strategy are to:

Deliver an accessible, safe and connected cycle network by 2020;

Make cycling an attractive choice for short trips within the LGA; and

Increase and diversify participation in cycling (people of all ages and abilities will view cycling as a safe, everyday transport option).

To achieve these goals Council will undertake the following:

Implement priority routes to address key gaps in the network;

Advocate for step free access to the Sydney Harbour Bridge Cycleway;

Update existing routes and improve quality across the network;

Install coherent and consistent bicycle wayfinding signage;

Install bicycle parking that caters for existing demand and future increases;

Provide supporting infrastructure such as public maps, bicycle pumps and water refill stations to support the cycling network; and

Conduct communications, events and programs to promote cycling and increase safety and awareness.

Cycling is already part of Council’s vision for a sustainable North Sydney. The North Sydney Community Strategic Plan sets a goal for Council to encourage sustainable transport. One of the key objectives relating to this goal is to provide ‘a network of accessible, safe and linked cycle paths throughout North Sydney’.

The proposed actions within the Strategy are designed to transform cycling in North Sydney, so that cycling becomes accessible as an everyday transport option for a diverse range of community members.

Draft North Sydney Transport Strategy North Sydney has developed a Draft North Sydney Transport Strategy (draft NSTS) which is currently under review. It is expected that the draft NSTS will be adopted later in 2017.

Transport has emerged as one of the most important urban planning issues facing Global Sydney. The draft NSTS is intended to be Council’s guiding document for the delivery of its transport planning and management functions. This includes strategic transport planning, delivery of local transport projects and transport advocacy. The draft NSTS builds on the directions, outcomes and strategies detailed in North Sydney’s Community Strategic Plan 2013-

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xv

23 (CSP) and Ecologically Sustainable Development Best Practice Project 2013 (ESD) to create an over-arching transport planning and management framework for the whole of Council.

Key elements of the draft NSTS include:

a holistic Vision for transport in North Sydney;

a principled, best practice approach to achieving this Vision;

requirements for the development of mode specific action plans;

a Council-wide transport implementation framework;

a delivery methodology that will help to ensure quick, consistent and robust responses to increasingly complex transport issues for Council initiated projects, policies and wider transport advocacy; and

shared CSP/NSTS measuring and reporting requirements.

STUDY AREA CHARACTERISTICS

Characteristics of Study Area

North Sydney Council serves an area of 10km2, which incorporates business districts and diverse residential areas. Suburbs in the North Sydney area include Cammeray, Cremorne, Crows Nest, Kirribilli, McMahons Point, Milsons Point, Neutral Bay, North Sydney, St Leonards, Waverton and Wollstonecraft.

Almost half of North Sydney’s residents are aged between 20 and 44 years. There is a comparatively low proportion of households with children. The population is highly mobile. Just under half of all residents rent. The dwelling density is higher than in most other parts of Sydney and is increasing. Four in five residents live in medium to high-density housing. North Sydney has a high level of visitors who travel to North Sydney for work. In regard to students attending schools and tertiary institutions, only one in five lives in the area.

The principal commercial activities in the North Sydney Central Business District (CBD) are advertising, marketing, retail, information technology, finance, telecommunications and property development.

Functional Road Hierarchy

Administrative Road Hierarchy Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) has adopted an administrative Road Hierarchy to manage the road network across NSW. The three administrative classes are:

State Roads; Regional Roads; and Local Roads

In terms of traffic management, Council has been delegated the responsibility for managing traffic on local and regional roads. The RMS has an input into the local and regional road system through Council’s Traffic Committee and through direct contact with Council. Changes to the local road system by Council which influence traffic flows require the submission of a Traffic Management Plan (TMP) to the RMS for approval. Although State Roads remain under the care and control of RMS, Council works closely with RMS to ensure that traffic on the State Road network does not adversely impact on the Regional or Local Road network to which it is responsible for.

Functional Road Hierarchy The functional classification of roads relates to their role within the overall road network. Changes to traffic flows on roads can then be assessed within the context of the functional road hierarchy. RMS has developed guidelines for functional classifications of roads. These guidelines are published in the document titled “The Functional Classification of Roads”.

Council recognises the importance of defining the roles of roads within the overall road network and proposes to adopt the RMS Functional Classification of Roads. The four functional road classes are:

Arterial Road - typically a main road carrying in excess of 15,000 vehicles per day and over 1,500 vehicles per hour in the peak period. They predominately carry traffic from one region to another, forming principal avenues for metropolitan traffic movements.

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xvii

Sub Arterial Road – typically a secondary road carrying between 5,000 – 20,000 vehicles per day and over 500 and 2,000 vehicles per hour in the peak period. They predominately carry traffic from one sub-region to another forming secondary inter-regional transport links.

Collector Road – typically a minor road carrying between 2,000 and 10,000 vehicles per day and over 250 and 1,000 per hour in the peak period. They provide a link between local areas and regional areas carrying low traffic volumes. At volumes greater than 5,000 vehicles per day, residential amenity begins to decline. Trunk collector and spine roads with limited property access can carry traffic flows greater than 5,000 vehicles per day.

Local Road – typically a local street carrying less than 2,000 vehicles per day and 250 vehicles per hour in the peak period. They provide direct access to individual houses and carry low traffic volumes.

A summary of road characteristics under the functional classification system is outlined in Table 2-1 Functional Classification of Roads.

Table 2-1 Functional Classification of Roads

Road Type Traffic Volume (AADT) Through Traffic Inter-Connections Speed Limit

(km/h)

Arterial/ Freeway No Limit Yes Sub-Arterial 70-110

Sub-Arterial <20,000 Some Arterial/ Collector 60-80

Collector <5,000 Little Sub-Arterial/ Local 40-60

Local <2,000 No Collector 40

It should be noted that the road classifications and characteristics are notional concepts developed a significant time after the North Sydney road network was constructed. As such, the characteristics of the roads in the study area do not perfectly match their classification and are more appropriately adopted in “greenfield” developments. This is consistent with the road network throughout the greater Sydney area and NSW.

The more significant arterial and collector roads throughout the study area are listed below.

Arterial Roads – Pacific Highway

Collector Roads - River Road, Shirley Road, and Bay Road.

Journey to Work Data (JTW) and Commuter Mode Share

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xviii

The Bureau of Transport Statistics (BTS) provides journey to work (JTW) for the Sydney Metropolitan Area which includes a comprehensive sample of commuter travel, collected during the 2011 Census Year.

Household vehicle ownership According to the 2011 Census of Population and Housing data, around 62,300 people live in the North Sydney LGA area and the average household size is 1.8. 51% of households in the North Sydney LGA own 1 vehicle and 17% of households do not own any vehicle. The household vehicle ownership in North Sydney LGA is shown in Figure 2.

In 2011, about 9,900 residents travelled from the study area to work. The census data showed that around 34% of work related trips from the study area were made by motorists in private vehicles either as a car driver or car passenger. Driving a car and taking train are the most dominant transport modes with the proportion of 31% and 38% of work related trips respectively. Currently, there is a relatively low usage of bus services in the study area with only 9% of workers travelling by bus.

Similarly, in 2011, about 22,000 employees travelled to the study area to work. From the inbound trip statistics, it can be seen that taking train and driving a car are still by far the dominant mode of transport to work comprising about 78% of all work related trips. Only 9% of employees travelled by bus and 6% walked. From JTW data it can be concluded that taking train and driving a private car are the dominant modal transport choice for daily commuters.

Local Area Traffic Management Devices

A range of traffic management devices are employed within the North Sydney Council TAPAS areas. Examples include but are not limited to pedestrian refuges, raised pedestrian refuges, rain gardens, speed cushions, school zones, one way streets, restricted turns and reduced speed limits i.e. 10 km/h and 40km/hr. It should be noted that some of the above noted traffic management devices are State Government traffic management matters, which are not under the care and control of the Council.

Parking Facilities

Current Management Framework On-street parking is currently managed through 33 Parking Areas across the LGA and three Parking Zones (High Demand, Medium Demand and Low Demand). Within these 33 Parking Areas there are approximately 23,500 on-street parking spaces.

In many Parking Areas of North Sydney, the demand for on-street parking is greater than the supply of on-street parking. Since North Sydney Council is unable to increase the supply of on-street parking, the only way to manage the parking in some areas and give residents and visitors fair access to the resource is to place time restrictions on the available parking spaces.

On-street Parking Control Typologies To ensure that Council is managing parking fairly and equitably across the LGA, various parking controls have been installed on public roads. An LGA-wide audit of parking controls was undertaken in 2013.

Current Permit Parking Scheme Operations Council operates three types of Permit Parking Schemes, subject to certain conditions and approvals. A parking permit issued by Council under any of the following schemes exempts the permit holder from charge or time restrictions whilst parked in a permit parking zone:

Resident Parking Scheme Visitor Parking Scheme Carers Parking Scheme

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xxiii

Restricted Parking Controls Operations In addition to the resident parking scheme controls, Council operates a significant amount of parking controls across the LGA. The three main types are as follows:

Long term Parking Controls - greater than 2-hour parking (i.e. 4P, 8P, 9P, 10P) Medium term Parking Controls – 1 and 2-hour parking (i.e. 1P, 2P). Short term Parking Controls - less than 1-hour parking (i.e. 15min, 30min)

Mobility Parking Operations Mobility Parking Spaces are managed in accordance with Council’s three Parking Zones (high demand, medium demand and low demand). Due to an increasing demand for mobility parking spaces, Council’s current practice is not to approve the installation of mobility parking spaces within high demand parking areas or in medium demand parking areas which are within 200m of an area zoned as Commercial or Mixed Use as defined by the LEP.

School Related Parking Control Operations Council assists local schools in terms of providing ‘Kiss and Ride’ zones. A ‘Kiss and Ride Zone’ provides an appropriate place to drop off or pick up children at school. There are different types of “Kiss and Drop” zones which operate across the LGA, including the following:

No Parking 8.00am – 9.30am, 2.30pm – 4.30pm School Days 5 Min 8.00am – 9.30am – 2.30pm, 4.30pm School Days

Car Share Operations There are dedicated car share parking spaces installed in various locations across the North Sydney LGA. These spaces are signposted as “No Parking Authorised Car Share Vehicles Excepted” and can only be used by a car share vehicle displaying an appropriate permit.

Metered Parking Operations Council currently has 433 multi-bay and 6 pay and display Parking Meters servicing 2,681 individual meter spaces. The parking meters throughout the LGA are located in the North Sydney CBD, the major shopping and business areas; Crow’s Nest, St Leonards, Neutral Bay, Cremorne, Milsons Point, Kirribilli and other fringe/shoulder areas that are in high demand for parking turnover.

Walking and Cycling Facilities

Walking Facilities The study area is well served by the provision of footpaths and pedestrian facilities. Nevertheless there is room for improvement particularly at key intersections throughout the North Sydney CBD.

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xxiv

Cycling Facilities There is an extensive cycle network throughout the study area consisting of on and off road cycle routes including shared paths. The existing cycling infrastructure in the study area is shown in Figure 6.

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xxv

Figure 5 Existing Cycle Network Typology Map

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xxvi

Public Transport Facilities

Bus Services Most roads in the study area are serviced by public transport buses. There are plenty of bus routes in the study area which mostly operate along Pacific Highway, Miller Street, Falcon Street, Willoughby Road and Blues Point Road. Figure 7 shows existing bus routes in the study area.

Figure 6 Existing Bus Network

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xxvii

Rail & Ferry Services The nearest rail stations in the study area are Milsons point Station, North Sydney Station, Waverton Station and Wollstonecraft Station as highlighted in Figure 8Error! Reference source not found.. These stations are part of the T1 North Shore, Northern and Western line and have frequent services particularly during peak periods.

The nearest rail stations in the study area are Milsons Point Wharf, McMahons Point, Greenwich Point Wharf and Greenwich as highlighted in Figure 8.

Crash Data Analysis

A crash assessment has been conducted for the study area using crash data supplied by Roads and Maritime Services for the five-year period from Jan 2011 to Jan 2015 inclusive. The data covers crashes reported to the police and includes fatal, injury and/ or non-casualty crashes.

A total of 610 crashes were recorded in the five-year period within the study area. There were four fatal crashes recorded and 48.3 per cent of the total crashes involved at least one injury. About 27.5 per cent of all crashes occurred at intersections and about 19.3 per cent of all crashes involved pedestrians or pedal cycles.

Figure 9 and Figure 10 show the number and percentage of crashes per movement type.

Figure 8 Summary of Type of Crash for the Study Area (volume)

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page xxix

Figure 9 Summary of Type of Crash for the Study Area (percentage)

According to Figure 8, it is noted that the dominant crash types in the study area include vehicles from same directions, intersection vehicles from adjacent approaches and off path on straight collisions. As illustrated in Figure 9, these types of crashes comprise about 20.8, 17.3 and 15.5 per cent, respectively.

There were a significant number of collisions occurring along the Pacific Highway and Warringah Freeway as well as on approach to their intersections. These crashes were not assessed in detail given that the Pacific Highway as well as all of its signalised intersections are under the care and control of the RMS and are therefore more appropriate for the RMS to address.

The following pedestrian crash clusters were identified in TAPAS Zone 3:

The Middlemiss Street / Lavender Street / Alfred Street intersection (2 crashes within 30m);

The Blue Street / Blues Point Road intersection (2 crashes); Alfred Street directly in front of Milsons Point Station (2 crashes); and Miller Street within 20m of Berry Street to the south (2 crashes).

It should also be noted that an isolated pedestrian fatality occurred on Spring Street.

The following cyclist crash clusters were identified in TAPAS Zone 3:

The Middlemiss Street / Lavender Street / Alfred Street intersection (4 crashes within 30m)

Alfred Street directly in front of Milsons Point Station (4 crashes); and The Blue Street / Blues Point Road intersection (2 crashes).

SMEC | North Sydney Council TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plans Draft Report | Page 1

Several vehicular crash clusters were identified throughout the TAPAS Zone including:

Blues Point Road, particularly near its intersection with Miller Street; Alfred Street particularly at its intersection with Lavender Street, its intersection with

Fitzroy Street and directly in front of Milsons Point Station; Walker Street; and Berry Street.

Figure 10 illustrates the location of all recorded crashes along the corridor for the five-year period between 2010 and 2015.

SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS

Sydney Metro

Sydney Metro is Australia’s biggest public transport project which will deliver 31 metro stations and more than 65 kilometres of new metro rail. Metro means a new generation of world-class fast, safe and reliable trains easily connecting customers to where they want to go. The services start in the first half of 2019 and customers won’t need timetables as they’ll just turn up and go with a train every four minutes in the peak. When Sydney Metro is extended into the central business district (CBD) and beyond in 2024, metro rail will run from Sydney’s booming North West region under Sydney Harbor, through new underground stations in the CBD and beyond to the south west. There will be ultimate capacity for a metro train every two minutes in each direction under the city, a level of service never before seen in Sydney. Sydney’s new metro railway will have a target capacity of about 40,000 customers per hour, similar to other metro systems worldwide. Sydney’s current suburban system can reliably carry 24,000 people an hour per line. Sydney Metro, together with signaling and infrastructure upgrades across the existing Sydney rail network, will increase the capacity of train services entering the Sydney CBD – from about 120 an hour today to up to 200 services beyond 2024. That’s an increase of up to 60 per cent capacity across the network to meet demand.

Crows Nest Station While Crows Nest Station is not located within TAPAS Zone 3 it is anticipated that its introduction will have a positive impact in reducing car dependency throughout the entire North Sydney LGA. Crows Nest Station is an underground station, about 25 metres below ground level, located on the western fringe of the Crows Nest village, between the Pacific Highway and Clarke Lane (eastern side of the Pacific Highway) and Oxley Street, south of Hume Street. The station provides new metro rail access to the Crows Nest residential area and serves people within walking and cycling distance. It improves travel to local schools, businesses and Crows Nest village. The station creates a new transport focus on the southern side of the St Leonards specialised centre which supports the St Leonards southern gateway to commercial and mixed-use activities. The access and entry to the station is via the corner of Clarke Street and Hume Street, and the corner of Pacific Highway and Oxley Street. The station includes: A pedestrian crossing with traffic lights at the Pacific Highway/Oxley Street intersection Pedestrian crossings on Clarke, Hume and Oxley streets Bike parking at both station entries On-road marked cycle links on Hume and Oxley streets Kiss and ride and taxi bays on Clarke Street Existing bus stops close to the station retained on the Pacific Highway Wayfinding signage and Sydney Metro information.


Victoria Cross Station Victoria Cross Station is an underground station, about 31 metres below ground level, located beneath Miller Street (to the north of the Pacific Highway) between McLaren Street and south of Berry Street. The station provides new metro rail access to the North Sydney business, education and residential area. Station access and entry is via the pedestrian plaza opening to Miller, Denison and Berry streets. The Station access and entry is via the pedestrian plaza opening to Miller, Denison and Berry streets. The station includes: new bike parking near the corner of Miller and Berry streets new kiss and ride bays on Berry Street existing bus stops close to the station retained on Miller Street wayfinding signage and Sydney Metro information within the North Sydney CBD a traction substation integrated into the station building (partially underground) a services building on Miller Street to the north of the station providing station and tunnel

services Enhancement of pedestrian infrastructure around the station. This is being investigated

further in consultation with Roads and Maritime Services and North Sydney Council.

Traffic Impact Assessment of Ongoing Development

A strategic traffic impact assessment has been undertaken in the context of the Council’s Local Environmental Plan and Development Control Plan, which assesses the cumulative traffic generation from major traffic generating developments identified or proposed within each of the three TAPAS zones. This exercise was based on approved developments and related information provided by the Council. A high level assessment has also been undertaken to test the road networks ability to handle the increased density and any potential traffic flow and on-street parking problems resulting from major traffic generating developments. In this regard, functions of the road network in terms of access, particularly for pedestrians near to new transport infrastructure, has been considered.

Cumulative Traffic Generation Assessment A comprehensive list of developments approved by Council since 2001 has been assessed to determine the likely increase in traffic. The list did not specify which developments had been constructed or are under construction. For the purpose of this assessment, it is assumed that any proposed development that has been approved prior to 2011 has already been constructed and is generating traffic. As such, any proposed development approved in 2011 onwards is assumed to not yet be constructed and is yet to increase traffic on the surrounding road network. In addition to the above, any development anticipating to generate an additional 5 trips or less during peak periods is considered to be relatively insignificant in terms of its traffic impact such that they have not been included in the assessment.


The anticipated trip generation has been determined based on the RMS Technical Directions (TDT 2013/04a) Guide to Traffic Generating Developments Updated traffic surveys which suggests the following weekday peak period traffic generation rates for residential units in the St Leonards area: AM Peak: 0.14 trips / unit PM Peak: 0.07 trips / unit

It is considered that these trips are appropriate to adopt for similar developments within TAPAS zone 3. The total number of proposed developments approved in 2011 onwards in which more than 5 additional trips are anticipated to be generated include the following:

74 – 80 Alfred Street, Milsons Point; 88 Alfred Street, St Leonards; 30 Alfred Street, St Leonards; and 12 – 16 Berry St, North Sydney.

It is noted that the vast majority of proposed developments are located on Alfred Street, whereby the greatest potential traffic impact is anticipated to occur at the Alfred Street / Lavender Street / Middlemiss Street intersection. The intersection also acts as the access to the Cahill Expressway which is under the care and control of the RMS. It is therefore considered more appropriate for the RMS to consider the impact of the developments on the intersection’s operation.


EXISTING TRANSPORT ISSUES IDENTIFIED THROUGH COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

Introduction

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 TAPAS Zone 3 as raised by the public.

For TAPAS Zone 3, Council received 937 submissions from 390 respondents. Of those submissions there were 1,225 specific traffic and transport related issues raised. Of those issues 30% were related to parking, 22% were related to traffic generally, 15% were related to walking, 13% were related to cycling, and 7% were related to buses. The remaining 14% of issues were related to public transport, specific developments and events.

Figure 13 Summary of Issues raised during Public Consultation – TAPAS Zone 3

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 TAPAS Zone 3 Action Plan is provided in Appendix A.

Transport for NSW


There were 146 issues raised with respect to public transport in TAPAS Zone 3. 59 (40%) of these responses related to timetables for various modes of public transport. The most recurring of these was 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).

Cycling Strategy

As noted previously, 7% 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 TAPAS Zone 3 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.

Matters Referred to Other Council Departments

92 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 3.7 and will be referred to the appropriate departments within Council for their attention (Appendix F).

244 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 TAPAS 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 TAPAS Zone.

TAPAS ACTIONS PLANS

Action Plan Development

Following identification of issues through community feedback and the physical audit of existing facilities in the TAPAS zones, a suite of facility improvements has been developed to address the issues identified.

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).

Existing Conditions (Problem Score)

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

Community Strategic Plan Criteria

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

Total Project Score

The total Project Score is calculated using the following formula:

𝑇𝑇 =𝑃𝑃 × 𝑆𝑆 ×𝑁𝑁

𝐶𝐶

Where:

T = Total Project Score

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 TAPAS 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.


The outcomes of the TAPAS assessment have been used to produce the TAPAS Action Plan which is provided at Appendix A.

Parking Review

As noted in Section 4.1, parking-related issues made up 30% of the feedback from the community in TAPAS Zone 3. Furthermore, 81% of that feedback was that either parking restrictions were either too restrictive or not restrictive enough. The most frequently mentioned streets were Mount Street (19); Blues Point Road (14); Walker Street (12); Alfred Street South (11).

At the time of preparing the TAPAS 3 Action Plan, comprehensive parking occupancy data was not available for all streets in the TAPAS 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.

North Sydney Council Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy (2015) provides a TAPAS Parking Principles Plan (Warrants) table which identifies the occupancy percentage thresholds and actions required (refer Figure 8.1).

Source: Table 7.6 – North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy (2015) Figure 14: TAPAS Parking Principles Plan (Warrants)

TAPAS Actions – Parking

It is recommended that an ongoing schedule of parking surveys across all streets in TAPAS Zone 3 be undertaken to ensure parking can be pro-actively managed. The schedule should be initially prioritised based on commercial areas, then locations with a high number of public complaints and then all other streets to provide an ongoing, complete data inventory.

6. Ongoing review of TAPAS 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 TAPAS assessment criteria.

Walking ‐ dodging bikes at the top of Miller St when approach Nth Syd Stn ‐ Bike paths should be directed down Blues Pt Rd to Lavender St.

Bike ‐ Poor road conditions, narrow streets, no bike lane

All bikes paths need to be checked and improved e.g.. Blues point road

Blues Point Rd, McMahons Point ‐ When cycling, the preponderance of parked cars poses a risk when people open their car doors without looking. Also, the bicycle symbol seems to count for nothing.

2. In relation to cyclists I am very pleased to see more people cycling but the off ramp from the Bridge across Burton Street; the plaza used by the markets and onto Alfred Street needs better management. Once again because they are coming down hill they are travelling very fast and then hit Alfred Street full of cars, pedestrians and buses. Once I saw cyclists hit an older couple near the bottom of the Bridge off ramp on Burton Street.

C.5 Miller St 6 SubmissionsA lot of cyclists leave Miller to go down to go through the park ‐‐> not enough room as there is a bus stop, a path ‐‐> very messy.

3) Cyclists heading up Miller Street in evening peak is dangerous due to their slower speed and fast passing buses and cars.

North Sydney, Miller St in particular ‐ I like cycling but roads have become too busy.; Peak hours ‐ the bunching of buses along Miller St combined with cyclists on the road make driving very very stressful. Need a separate cycleway ‐ don't know where but maybe cyclists have to take other roads not main roads.

Miller Street ‐ As above (No Bike paths make it extremely dangerous to cycle) ‐ suggest lane for specific times ‐ early morning.;

Union St, Miller St ‐ Unsafe for bicycles ‐ more dedicated bicycle lanes please;*

Cycling ‐ northbound cycling on Pacific Highway in North Sydney and multiple lane change into right hand turn lane at Miller Street intersection is highly exposed to motor traffic; and lack of space available on Miller Street at corner of Mount Street to accommodate cyclists doing the alternative hook turn manouevre from Pacific Highway onto Miller Street northbound

Access of Harbour Bridge to North Sydney

No safe access for cyclists into Harbour Bridge

Cycling around North Sydney ‐I am a car driver, but I like to commute by bike wherever possible. I ride to work, to the hairdresser, the dentist, the shops, my kid’s schools. I think council should lead by example and provide for cycling as it is done in all leading cities around the world. My positive cycling infrastructure tips are: 1) Complete the cycle link from the Harbour Bridge north side to connect to the Warringah Freeway Path, and all the bits between. Apart from the fact that it will increase the number of cycling commuters, hence less cars, if this critical link is never implemented, the cycle path section beside the Warringah Freeway between Pacific Highway Lane Cove to Willoughby Road, Naremburn is useless. It only encourages cycling‐critics to say that investing in cycling infrastructure is a waste. Lobby the state and federal government – it’s your patch! 3) More bike parking – where is the street‐level bike parking associated with the new Woolcottcottworths shopping centre on Falcon and Alexander Street? Perhaps you could undertake an analysis of NCC’s provision of on street car parking versus bike parking in shopping and commercial areas. 8) Don’t create local cycling routes on steep, difficult terrain on back streets to keep them off major roads. People will only cycle if it’s efficient and an achievable option. Look at the dismal Lane Cove bike strategy. Try riding the suggested local bicycle route from Greenwich to Lane Cove through Kingslangley Rd, Balfour Street, Ronald Avenue. You need to be a very strong, confident cyclist to attempt this. It wouldn’t encourage a new cyclist to commute readily. Work with state bodies to make cycling a priority on the major, easier roads. 9) Send your staff out riding around the municipality You don’t understand fully the needs and issues facing cyclists

13. North Sydney Cycle Link – Middlemiss and Lavender: This is a major blockage and deterrent. Install short raised cycle path from Milsons Park, past and through viaduct opening to north side of rail line. Much cheaper than City cycle links strategy.

Improve cycling safety Milsons Point and North Sydney’s CBD ‐Work with NSW Government to fund and install a short cycle bridge over Milson Point station’s entrance from the Sydney Harbour Bridge cycleway. Install a cycleway at ground level along the western side of the railway line from Milson Point station to Lavender St. Install a cycle/pedestrian bridge over Lavender St roundabout and through the glass windows of one of the leased buildings under the railway then over the Pacific Hwy and then under High St bridge. A large concrete tube could be slid through the leased building near the roof that would be soundproof. Continue cycleway along the edge of the Warringah Freeway to Mount St. In future cycleway could continue along the edge of the Warringah Freeway to completely remove conflict between vehicles and driveways in North Sydney. This will create a high speed cycle highway from Sydney’s CBD through Milsons Point and around the edge of North Sydney’s CBD to improve safety and reduce conflicts.

NORTH SYDNEY PACIFIC HWY ‐ POOR CYCLE PATHS FROM BRIDGE GOING NORTH, DANGEROUS CYCLING THROUGH NORTH SYDNEY

Cycling access to the area bounded by Berry St, Walker St, Pacific Highway and Arthur St is a challenge. I work at 141 Walker St, and to get out and going to the bike lane on West St is difficult. Is there a way to provide clear cycle access to this area?Perhaps related, there is a bike sign on Berry St near the entrance to the Warringah Expressway (northbound), but I've ridden my bike there and it seems bike access peters out, which I found very scary as cars are going past at 80km/h. Could this please be improved perhaps? Going up the Pacific Highway from Walker St is an option, but it is also very challenging with vehicle traffic and an uphill section to Miller St!Thank you for giving us the mechanism to provide constructive feedback, thank you for making active transport possible in the area (I commute ride to work around 3‐5 days per week), and thank you for your attention!

In addition, North Sydney CBD has broad footpaths that are largely unused outside of the 9‐5pm working day. It would be easy and straightforward to permit cyclists to ride at a low speed on footpaths in North Sydney during the off‐peak hours or at very least, on Sunday mornings. Many cyclists do not have the confidence to risk mixing with cars and importantly, beginning cyclists want to learnt safely without threat of $100s in fines. This would be a really worthwhile initiative and provide multiple community health and transport benefits.

Problem with parking near intersection of Blues Point Rd & Union/Miller StOn Union St, just outside the Commodore Hotel, there are two Northbound lanes. The kerbside lane is a part‐time, bus stop (Mon‐Fri 6:30am & Saturday 7:00am‐6:30pm) the remainder of the time parking is permitted.When car park here (or Taxis wait for fares outside the Commodore, then all traffic must proceed up blues Point Rd in the right‐hand lane. However, frequently cars stop and block that lane while they wait to turn right into Lavender Street. When this happens, all traffic is blocked. Even if the cars turning right proceed into the intersection and wait, because of not quite‐straight nature of the intersection, there is rarely enough room for other traffic to slip poast.This is not normally a problem when this area operates as a bus‐stop as buses only occasionally drive by, and even then don’t stop for long, or often, at all.Can I suggest that that zone outside the Commodore become No Stopping or No Standing when it is not a Bus Zone – or maybe more simply, make it a full‐time bus zone?

Introduce a new type of tax: if you own more than two cars, you have to pay; equally, if you ride a motorcycle you pay less.‐ Lack of motorcycle parking: this is an issue everywhere, but it is especially obvious in North Sydney, where there is absolutely nothing is being done to encourage motorcycle use for commute instead of cars. We are living in a country where 365 days per year is usable for motorcycle commute, still we are falling behind in scooter/motorcycle adoption because of the rigid rules. A friendly reminder that in Melbourne scooters/motorcycles can park on the sidewalk as long as they aren't blocking the pedestrians, which is similar to most European countries.

It is dangerous trying to enter or leave street parking as cars come around the corner so fast. It is also dangerous crossing the road due to Speeding traffic in both directions. Recent planting on this road has made the situation worse by making manoeuvering in and out of parking more difficult and has also forced pedestrians to cross road from between cars, as the planting is now where the clear spaces were safer to cross. This "traffic calming" has had no effect on speed of traffic on Union St but has made parking and crossing the road more difficult and dangerous for residents.



Union, Woollcott ‐ Traffic (morning) travelling to Naval Base makes LH turn into Woollcott at dangerous speeds and often without signalling. Very dangerous for pedestrians crossing Woollcott near this intersection.

T.21 Alfred St at North Sydney Olympic Pool

A pedestrian footpath across Alfred St at North Sydney Olympic Pool entrance is needed. This would make it safer for patrons entering and leaving the pool from this busy street. Many swimmers using the pool have drawn attention to this dangerous crossing. Please consider a pedestrian crossing to provide safer access to the pool. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6N6zZW6PXk


install Pedestrian Crossing / Refuge Island Short

T.22 Dumbarton St Mitchell St and Victoria St are both one way and in opposing directions. I understand and support the reason (both narrow). However, there are posts in the roadway at the western end of Victoria, preventing access and these are a real nuisance. For the 200 or so residents of Munro St, in order to get to the shops and restaurants in McMahon's Point we have to drive the entire length of Dunbarton St, make a dangerous right turn (blind summit) into Union St, drive down to the traffic lights and wait to turn right into Blue's Point Rd. This is about 5 times as far as using Victoria eastbound, making 2 hazardous right turns and causing the emissions of extra carbon dioxide. Please consider removing the posts that cause this crazy situation. I appreciate 2 or 3 parking spots at that end of Victoria will need to be cancelled, but for the convenience of 200 residents of Munro, and for environmental impact reasons, it should be done

T.29 Blues Point Rd 4 SUBMISSIONSfast travelling vehicles;

Blues Point Rd ‐ Traffic ‐ 1. Speeding up the hill in late evenings ‐ place ripple strips to stop this.;

Blues Pt Rd East Cr St ‐ Traffic exceeding speed limits. Ignoring one way street signs

Blues Point Rd after hours becomes a racetrack. Cars drive slowly to the parking area at the bottom to see if any police are about. If no police, they turn around and go up and Blues Point Road at full speed ‐ burn outs, excessive speed and noise. Very dangerous. Solution: 1) a speed hump at entry to parking area at bottom of Blues Point Rd ‐ people also drive to fast into the area where there are always pedestrians around here. 2) Ripple strips every 50 metres or so up to Blues Point Hotel. Ripple strips slow fast traffic.

Pedestrians cross illegally (get stuck at intersections)‐peninsula residents have to come this way out

Blues Point Rd ‐ is becoming increasingly busy and noisy. Difficult to cross anywhere.; Crossing in McMahons Point shopping area is not well marked ‐ many drivers don't see it. When I drive I have noticed it is not easy to see.;

"Safety" crossing at the bottom of BP Rd ‐ in unsafe spot ‐ should be across the mouth of the parking area.

1. Bottom of Blues Point Rd, McMahons Point ‐ We need to cross from Blues Point Tower at the bottom of Blues Point Rd (#14) to Henry Lawson Avenue several times a day to use the bus and the ferry, and there is no safe dedicated crosswalk to slow the traffic that races up and down that stretch. There should be painted lines and guard rails to protect all pedestrian traffic & yellow signs to warn & slow down oncoming traffic to a stop when we all need to cross there: precisely it should be installed from the sidewalk and mouth of the driveway to the Blues Point Lawson Avenue which runs Past the bus stop and feeds down to the ferry terminal. (It is much more sensible than block that way with a disruptive bed of plants currently there.);

Survey 164 I have relocated to Australia from Austria and was flabbergasted by the public transport in Sydney. Don't get me wrong it is a fantastic city and the public transport is okay, but I think it could be much more efficient. I think there is too much emphasis on the roads.

Getting to Ultimo or back by bus takes about 1h which is a lot of time for a short distance. Motorists block the bus lanes and there are not enough buses. There is a very long line of passengers in the morning trying to get to the city and the buses don't stop anymore because they are full.

I could take the light rail to central but to get to the next rail station is also complicated, also it would mean paying twice. I would love to get there by bike and then take the train but this is outright dangerous, especially in the morning traffic. Motorists are inconsiderate and sometimes even abusive towards bicycles, especially on larger roads. So going by bike all they way to Ultimo over the Harbor Bridge is also not an option.

Moreover if I go to go to Balmoral Beach, there are enough buses going down there during the day, but they stop after 7 for some reason. I have to hike up the hill to Spit Rd. to catch a bus there.

The service to Crows Nest is also not really available, we stopped using the bus to go there since walking is the faster option.

In North Sydney I would like to be more flexible on public transport. I would like to have a short loop service that takes passengers in the peak hours from the Military Rd to Milson Pt. / North Sydney to Cremorne Pt. Station / .... so they can go either on the Rail or Ferry and during the evening hours back again. Also I would like to be able to go to Milson Pt/North Sydney. and the Harbor Bridge on a segregated bike lane.

Email Submission 84 2)Reduce the speed limit across the municipality. Pacific Highway 40km/hr – why not?! I know Council has discussed this for North Sydney CBD and I, for one, compliment you on the initiative. As in my point above about Willoughby Road, it may make driving slower and (more) inefficient, or perhaps it’s just a perception, but then perhaps motorists will consider using public transport, cycling or walking. I don ’t think we should be encouraging more traffic in North Sydney municipality and slower traffic is better for people (back to the priority list above).

The single footpath is inaccessible to prams, groups or wheelchairs due to it's narrow width and the power poles , meaning 95% of people walk along the road itself. Many near misses have been observed from our home as cars fly down the hills at speed, round the bend and squeal to a stop. Strongly recommend a 20-30km speed zone with prominent "SLOW DOWN" and "beware of pedestrians/children playing" signage be put in place. The powerlines going underground would also help.

The traffic coming off the Southbound freeway onto High St, is merging left onto Pacific Hwy, while the traffic from Pacific Hwy is merging right to turn into Walker St creating a network of overlapping lanes and traffic chaos. Simple solution would be to time the traffic lights better so that the lights on Pacific Hwy before the High St junction remain red, whilst the traffic light on High St and Arthur St are green to allow this traffic to come up and merge onto Pacific Hwy. Then the lights on High & Arthur St turn red whilst the lights on Pacific Hwy are green to allow these vehicles to merge right to turn onto Walker St at which point the lights on Pacific and Walker should also be green to allow this group of cars to pass through.

Mapping Tool 45 Dangerous Lane Barriers: There are barriers between the left lane and the other lanes on Pacific Highway.These barriers are very dangerous to bike riders. Cyclists cannot go up on the footpath (where marked), because there's not enough room for bikes and pedestrians walking the other way, so going up on the road is the most appropriate.Those barriers prevent any busses/cars from overtaking cyclists. Given that it's up hill for cyclists, they are slow and many busses/cars get annoyed and tailgate the cyclists very close. Some even speed up to get in front of the cyclists before the barriers start. I've had many close calls (of serious injury or even death) riding up that section of road. It is the most dangerous part of the whole council area. Removal of the barriers will allow busses/cars to go around the cyclists. They do not achieve anything other than cause problems. If it is unsafe for drivers to change lanes to the left, they will not do it. No need to prevent the possibility, especially since it causes more danger.

Online Submission 10 1. Pedestrian crossing on the corner of Pacific Hwy and Miller St North Sydney is a dangerous corner both for pedestrians and vehicles turning left from Pacific Hwy into Miller St. This crossing begins as a zebra crossing and continues as a traffic light crossing across Miller St. By changing the zebra crossing portion to a timed traffic light crossing, this corners safety will increase and the traffic bank up on Pacific Hwy will improve. Currently pedestrians cross at the zebra crossing and there ends up being a very large group of pedestrians waiting on the island for the green light. It would be safer for the pedestrians to wait on the footpath in front of the Genworth building until there is a green light to cross all the way to the other side. This will allow the traffic to flow freely, turning left into Miller St whilst the pedestrian crossing is red.

52 I strongly believe the that restricted parking should operate for longer hours. This is because residents with off street parking park on the street during the unrestricted hours. I think the position would be helped by keeping parking restricted until, say, 9pm Monday - Friday. In addition, I suggest parking be restricted on weekends (suggest 3 hours). More needs to be done to discourage "2 car" households in this area which is very well serviced by public transport. I suggest those with off street parking be required to park across their driveway - if they seek a second permit. Otherwise the "driveway" is a permanent lost car space from the street.

61 Improving Pedestrian Safety in North Sydney’s CBD - The following will allow pedestrians to again trust signalised pedestrian crossings and increase the flow of vehicles around North Sydney. Remove clutter around pedestrian crossings and allow the elderly, disabled and children easier and safer passage around North Sydney. Work with the RMS and NSW Centre for Road Safety to: a) Trial auto-Introduction of pedestrian crossings at certain crossings in CBD and near schools; b) Auto introduction of all pedestrian crossings in CBD during daylight hours 7 days a week; c) Install new countdown timers at crossings without vehicle conflict; d) Improve cycling of traffic signals after hours to reduce vehicles waiting at red lights for 80 sec; e) As new laybacks are installed widen ramp to allow multiple prams and elderly to use at same time; f) Increase width of footpath layback’s that are being replaced due to CBD footpath upgrade; g) Make sure that all pedestrian crossings are to the correct RMS technical directives (td); h) Remove speed hump signs from all raised pedestrian crossings as per RMS td; I) Install 25km/hr sign onto pedestrian crossing signs at all raised pedestrian crossings; j) At all new raised pedestrian crossings no layback, surface is level with footpath as per RMS td.

92 Many pavements in the area are irregular and poorly lit in the evening, especially now that the days are getting shorter. At times it can be quite precarious negotiating the uneven surfaces when coming home from work at night. However I would rather have uneven walking surfaces if the alternative meant the loss of trees.
