REFERRAL TO COMMITTEE

Observation by traffic engineer.

ISSUES

• Lack of 15 minute parking in vicinity of Cronulla railway station.

• Turning bay capacity.

PREVIOUS CONSIDERATION BY COMMITTEE

No.

COMMENTS FROM INVESTIGATING OFFICER

Council has received concerns regarding a lack of set down / pickup areas to serve the railway station.

Additionally concerns exist regarding northbound delays caused by increased turning movements in

Cronulla Street, outside Cronulla Railway Station, following the recent introduction of the trial No Left

Turn restriction.

Seven 2-hour parking spaces exist opposite the railway station. It is considered that two of these

spaces could be converted to 15 minute parking with minimal effect on parking availability for the area.

In addition, two 15 minute parking spaces could be reinstated on the west side and timed to operate

only on Monday to Friday (Refer to attached Plan A).

Further, it is proposed to extend the right turn bay length in Cronulla Street to encourage motorists to

form two lanes, thereby improving northbound traffic flow (Refer to attached Plan B).

It is considered that the above treatments will cater for public transport requirements while ensuring

northbound traffic flow.

FINANCIAL / RESOURCE IMPLICATIONS

Fully funded in current budget.

Attachments: Plan A

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

• During construction of the Jannali railway station upgrade there is no legal parking for vehicles

to service the Australia Post street posting box. It is proposed to install a 6 metre long 'Bus

Zone Australia Post Vehicles Excepted 2 Minutes Limit' zone within the existing 'Bus Zone'.

REPORT RECOMMENDATION

THAT:

1. "Bus Zone Aust Post Vehicles Excepted 2 Minutes Limit" signs be provided at the existing

'Bus Zone' in Jannali Avenue outside the Jannali railway station, in accordance with Plan

'A' attached to the report.

2. The Authorised Officers be advised of this decision for enforcement purposes.

LOCATION

Jannali Avenue, Jannali. At existing 'Bus Zone' outside Jannali railway station.

REFERRAL TO COMMITTEE

Transport for New South Wales and Australia Post.

ISSUES

• Bus Zone.

• Australia Post Street posting box.

• Construction activities associated with the Transport for New South Wales (TfNSW) Transport

Access Program upgrades to Jannali railway station.

PREVIOUS CONSIDERATION BY COMMITTEE On 04 July 2003 (STR004-04) the Traffic Committee approved a 'No Parking' zone and a 'Mail Zone'

at Jannali Avenue, Jannali.

COMMENTS FROM INVESTIGATING OFFICER Council was approached by the contractor responsible for the Transport Access Program (TAP)

upgrades on behalf of TfNSW at Jannali railway station to assist with the relocation of an existing

Australia Post street posting box to assist construction activities.

During this process it became apparent that neither the 'No Parking' zone nor the 'Mail Zone' approved

by the Traffic Committee in July 2003 were currently in place in Jannali Avenue. This results in the

undesirable situation where vehicles servicing the street posting box, have to resort to illegally

stopping in the 'Bus Zone'.

Due to construction activity, the TfNSW contractor is not in favour of reintroduction of a 'No Parking'

zone as this would result in legal "kiss and ride" activity by private motor vehicles at this location.

Discussions with Transdev have revealed that due to the frequency of bus services at this stop, use of

some of the 'Bus Zone' on occasion by vehicles servicing the street posting box can be

accommodated.

It is therefore proposed to install "Bus Zone Australia Post Vehicles Excepted 2 Minutes Limit" signs

within the existing 18 metre long Bus Zone, as shown in the attached Plan 'A'. This will be a temporary

arrangement during the remainder of the construction phase.

Approval for the ultimate layout of all regulatory signs and linemarkings associated with the Jannali

railway station upgrade will be sought at a future date. This will include a convenient 'No Parking'

zone adjacent the 'Bus Zone' to facilitate 'kiss and ride' activity.

COMMENTS FROM INVESTIGATING OFFICER

Observations by Council officers including the Traffic Engineer, has revealed that some parents and

carers are illegally parking their vehicles in the designated pick-up area at the head of the carline in

Koorabel Avenue for extended periods of time in the afternoon commencing before the end of the

school day at 3:10pm.

The above-mentioned undesirable parking practice leads to other drivers to illegally park their vehicle

for periods exceeding 2 minutes in the lengthy 'No Parking 2:30 -3:30pm' creating unnecessary

congestion before the end of the school day.

In order to reduce congestion, enhance road safety and improve the operation of the St Catherine

Laboure Primary School carline, it is recommended that 35 metre long ten minute parking zone be

removed and replaced with standard 'No Parking 2:30 - 3:30pm' restrictions in order to be consistent

with:

• The carline signposting generally displayed elsewhere in Koorabel Avenue,

• Carline signposting at other locations in the Shire.

The provision of 1/2 hour parking restriction between 8am to 2:30pm on school days will continue to

offer motorists the ability to park for a short period of time in order to visit the school or the adjacent

residential units and also ensure appropriate road space is available for delivery vehicles to access

the rear of the shops in Turner Lane.

A copy of the plan showing the amended signposting proposal was emailed to the school principal on

20 September 2017, seeking their comment regarding standardising the parking restrictions at the

head of the carline in Koorabel Avenue.

While no email reply has been received before the start of the current school holiday period, the

school principal will be contacted during the first week of the new school term to confirm no objections

to the proposal to improve the operation of the carline in Koorabel Avenue. Should an objection be

received from the school, arrangements will be made to conduct an on-site meeting and the results

will be reported to the November meeting of the Sutherland Traffic and Traffic Safety Committee.

COMMENTS FROM INVESTIGATING OFFICER

Council was approached by the event organiser responsible for the National Parks and Wildlife

Services "Celebrating 50 Years" event, to take place on Sunday 8 October at various locations around

New South Wales. The flagship event will take place at Audley in the Royal National Park. Due to

limited parking the event organiser will be running shuttle services from Sutherland (via Loftus

Tramway Museum), Engadine and Bundeena. Council is supportive of the event organiser's pro-active

management of potential traffic and parking issues by implementing a shuttle bus service from

locations with ample parking supply.

Council has identified a risk factor in the possible high parking demand by private vehicles, preventing

the efficient operation of the shuttle bus service. In liaison with the shuttle bus operator, the following

locations have been identified as bus stops:

• Eton Street, Sutherland, at the Entertainment Centre (existing occasional 'Bus Zone');

• Both sides of Rawson Avenue, Loftus, just north of Pitt Street, at the Tramway Museum;

• Station Street, Engadine, northern side, just west of Railway Parade (full time 'Bus Zone');

• Loftus Street, Bundeena, northern side, just east of Brighton Street (time limited 'Bus Zone, not

in force on Sundays).

No action is required at Station Street, Engadine, as the location is a full time 'Bus Zone'. A request

has been made to the Sutherland Entertainment Centre to display the 'Bus Zone' signs in Eton Street

on Sunday 8 October. It is therefore proposed to display 'Bus Zone 8am - 6pm' signs at the following

locations on Sunday 8 October:

• Both sides of Rawson Avenue, Loftus, just north of Pitt Street, at the Tramway Museum; and

• Loftus Street, Bundeena, northern side, just east of Brighton Street.

The shuttle bus service will run approximately every 15 minutes from 9:15 am until 17:15 pm.

Temporary 'Bus Zones' have been approved previously by the Sutherland Traffic Committee for the

National Trust Heritage Festival activities in the Sutherland Shire and by all accounts operated

successfully. It is therefore expected that these temporary 'Bus Zones' will be respected by the

general public and assist with the efficient running of the shuttle service.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

• Concerns have been raised regarding traffic safety due to poor vision at a curve in Oxley

LOCATION

Oxley Avenue, Jannali. Curve between No. 6 and No.10.

REFERRAL TO COMMITTEE

Member of the public. (CR16-148000)

ISSUES

• Limited sight lines through sharp curve due to parked vehicles.

• Tidal traffic flows due to presence of railway commuter carpark.

• Inappropriate speed / Not driving according to the conditions.

PREVIOUS CONSIDERATION BY COMMITTEE

On 06-08-2004 (STR022-05) the Traffic Committee recommended that traffic calming and additional

parking spaces not be provided at Oxley Avenue, Jannali.

COMMENTS FROM INVESTIGATING OFFICER Concerns have been raised with road safety due to poor vision at a curve in Oxley Avenue, Jannali

near No.6. Perceptions are that railway commuters travel at speeds that are inappropriate for the

conditions.

Investigations have shown that Oxley Avenue is generally 8.6m wide with barrier kerb. This cul-de-

sac serves high density apartment buildings and is the sole access to a railway commuter carpark.

Observations have shown that on-street parking is heavily utilised at all times. Although the

combination of the width of the street and parking reduces the street to one lane, this has the

advantage of slowing vehicle speeds and drivers are using driveways as "passing bays". There have

been no reported motor vehicle crashes in Oxley Avenue in the five year period ending June 2016.

In general the investigations have confirmed that there is no warrant for traffic calming or speed

limiting devices in Oxley Avenue. However, there is a concern with the limited vision at a particular

curve generally between No's 6 and 10. The combination of parked vehicles on both sides of the road

which limits sight between opposing vehicles, and the driving behaviour of railway commuters give rise

to heightened risk of an incident.

A proposal to prohibit parking on either the western or eastern side of Oxley Avenue in the vicinity of

this curve was circulated to affected residents of the apartments at No.'s 6, 8, 10, 12, 27, 29 and 31-

33.

Approximately 50 letters were distributed and six responses were received. Five of the responses

were in favour of the proposed restrictions and of those five responses; four favoured the eastern side

(inside of the curve).

It is therefore proposed to provide 'No Parking 6:30am - 9:30am, 3:30pm - 7:30pm Monday to Friday'

on the eastern side of Oxley Avenue between the driveways of apartments at No.6 and No.10. A total

of six parking spaces are affected. The time limited restrictions have the advantage of improving sight

lines and maintaining traffic flow during periods of highest traffic flow, but also retaining evening and

weekend parking for the benefit of residents when the traffic flow is much reduced.
