Council has received a request from a pre-school owner located at No.151 John Street, Lidcombe for the installation of timed parking outside the property.

 

This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.

 

Recommendation The Traffic Committee recommends that: 1.   The proposed installation of ‘1/4P 8AM – 9:30AM, 3PM-5PM, Mon-Fri’ outside No. 151 John Street, Lidcombe in accordance with the attached plan be approved. 2.   The affected / concerned business owners be notified of the outcome.

 

Council has received a request from the pre-school located at No.151 John Street Lidcombe for the installation of timed parking restrictions outside the property.

The business owner has advised that due to the high parking demand in the area, the existing unrestricted on-street parking spaces are occupied for most of the day, thereby limiting opportunities for parents accessing the pre-school.

John Street is a local collector road that runs in a north-south direction with a speed limit of 60km/h. It has a width of 11.5m with unrestricted parking on both sides of the street unless otherwise signposted.

 

The map below shows the location.

 

Locality Plan

 

The latest Centre for Road Safety accident data indicated that there were no reported accidents at this location in the last 5 years ending June 2023.

 

Council officers have investigated the matter which revealed that due to the high demand of parking in the area, vehicles often park for long periods of time in the street preventing the parents from the preschool using the spaces.

 

To assist the business in the area, it is proposed to install 1/4 hour parking restrictions which would increase parking turnover for the business between the hours of 8am to 9:30am and 3pm to 5pm on weekdays.

The proposal was notified to the impacted and adjacent residents for a period of 14 days starting from 1 March 2024 to 15 March 2024.

Council received a response from the preschool that supported the proposal.

The proposal was notified to the impacted and adjacent residents for a period of 14 days starting from 15 November 2023 to 29 November 2023.

There were 2 submissions in support and 1 submission objecting to the proposal. The resident who objected to the proposal expressed concern over losing on-street parking space adjacent to the property. As this proposal is only to enforce the 10m road rule requirement at the intersections, the space is not considered as an available on-street parking space and there will be no loss of on-street parking spaces.

Agenda Part                                     Part 1

 

Note: Recommended for Approval under Delegated Authority

 

 

Council has received requests from a local resident for the installation of traffic calming devices on Alice Street, Auburn due to speeding concerns.

This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.

 

Recommendation   The Traffic Committee recommends that:   1.   The provision of DL1 and BL2 linemarking along Alice Street, Auburn in accordance with the attached plan be approved.   2.   The concerned resident be notified of the outcome.

 

 

Council has received requests from a local resident for the installation of traffic calming devices on Alice Street, Auburn due to speeding concerns. The resident also requested additional ‘One-way’ signage in Alice Street between Queen Street Northcote Street.

 

Alice Street is a local road that runs in a north-south direction with a posted speed limit of 50km/h. The street is approximately 870m long and has a width of approximately 10m. Timed parking restrictions applied on some sections of the street. Alice Street between Queen Street and Northcote Street is restricted to one-way(southbound) traffic flow.

 

Currently a roundabout exists in Alice Street at the intersection of Mary Street to control traffic speed and a raised pedestrian crossing near Northcote Street. The street also has a school zone between South Parade and Pritchard Street.

 

A traffic count was undertaken on Alice Street, Auburn in March 2024. The traffic count location is shown in red on the map below.

 

Locality Plan

 

Traffic count data on Alice Street, Auburn:

 

·    Average Daily Traffic (ADT) = 2,657 veh/day,

·    85th percentile speed = 47.2 km/h,

·    Mean (average) vehicle speed = 39.1 km/h.

 

The latest Centre for Road Safety accident data indicated that there was one reported accident on Alice Street in the last 5 years ending June 2023 in relation to speeding. The accident details are list in the table below:

 

 

Council officers have investigated the request for the installation of traffic calming devices on Alice Street in accordance with Council’s Local Area Traffic Management (LATM) Policy.

 

The result of the traffic count and recorded crashes were used in the assessment to determine the need for the installation of traffic calming devices on Alice Street in accordance with the criteria set out in Council’s Local Area Traffic Management Policy (LATM) Policy.

 

The LATM assessments are summarised in the tables below:

 

Table 1 – Alice Street, Auburn - LATM Assessment Points

 

Table 2 – Alice Street, Auburn– Action

Criteria	Action
>75	Report to TC with a recommendation of providing traffic calming devices
61-75	Report to TC and discuss possibility of providing traffic calming devices
41-60	Council to review traffic data in 6 months
25-40	Monitor street and review traffic data after 12 months
<25	Do Nothing
Speed	That regardless of the total points scored, should the 85th percentile speed exceed the posted speed limit by 5 km/h, the street be referred to the NSW Police for monitoring and/or enforcement.

The traffic count data indicated that the recorded 85^th percentile speed is 47.2 km/h, which is below the default speed limit. Based on the above assessment, traffic calming devices are not warranted in the street.

However, as per Transport for NSW Delineation Guidelines, the installation of DL1 line marking (former ‘S1’ centre lines) is warranted when:

·    AADT is greater than 2,500 vehicles on urban roads.

·    Pavement width is greater than 5.5m.

Based on the traffic count data, Alice Street has a AADT of 2,657 vehicles per day which meets the warrants for DL1 line marking. Therefore, it is proposed to provide DL1 linemarking along Alice Street between Happ Street and Edgar Street with BL2 linemarking at the intersection of Edgar Street and Happ Street.

 

Consultation has not been undertaken as no residents will be impacted by the proposed linemarking.

Police Area Command (PAC):      Auburn   

Agenda Part                                     Part 1

 

Note: Recommended for Approval under Delegated Authority

 

 

 

Council has received a request from motorists and residents about the safety of the intersection of Chisholm Road and Cardigan Street, Auburn due to vehicle queuing at the intersection.  

This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.

 

Recommendation   The Traffic Committee recommends that the installation of ‘Do Not Queue Across Intersection’ signage and associated line marking on Chisholm Road at its intersection with Cardigan Street, Auburn in accordance with the attached plan be approved.

 

 

Chisholm Road is a reginal road that runs in a north-south direction with a speed limit of 50km/h. This section of Chisholm Road has a width of approximately 12.5m with parking permitted on both sides of the road unless signposted.

 

Cardigan Street is a local road that runs in an east-west direction with a speed limit of 50km/h. This section of Cardigan Street has a width of approximately 12.5m with parking permitted on both sides of the road unless signposted.

 

Chisholm Road and Cardigan Street form a four-way intersection with priority to Chisholm Road.

 

Cardigan Road has median islands with openings on both approaches. Cardigan Road has ‘Stop’ control on its eastern approach and ‘Give Way’ control on its western approach.

 

It is alleged by the resdients that they experience difficulties when turning from Cardigan Street into Chisholm Road due to vehicles queuing across the intersection. It is requested that ‘Keep Clear’ line marking be provided at the intersection to reinforce the NSW Road Rules.

 

It should be noted that St Joseph’s Hospital is located at the end of Cardigan Street. Cars and ambulances are using Cardigan Street to access the hospital.

 

Figure 1 – Locality Plan

 

‘Keep Clear’ Pavement markings are generally used outside Ambulance and Fire Brigade driveways and critical intersections close to a signalised intersection where vehicles queuing to turn right into side roads might result in interfering with the performance of the signalised intersection.

 

Although this intersection does not meet the warrant for a ‘Keep Clear’ line marking, to assist ambulance and other vehicles move into the traffic without delay, it is proposed to provide ‘Do Not Queue Across Intersection’ signage with associated line marking at this intersection.

 

Consultation has not been undertaken as no residents will be impacted by the proposed signage and linemarking.

Council has received a request from a local café located at No. 29 Yennora Avenue Yennora for the installation of timed parking restrictions outside the café.

The business owner has advised that due to high parking demand in the area, the existing unrestricted on-street parking spaces are occupied most of the day and remove parking opportunity for customers.

Locality Plan

 

The latest Centre for Road Safety accident data indicated that there were no reported accidents at this intersection in the last 5 years ending June 2023.

 

Council officers have investigated the matter which revealed that due to the high demand of parking in this industrial area, vehicles often park for long periods of time in the street preventing the café’s customers from using the spaces.

 

To assist the businesses in the area, it is proposed to install 1/4 hour parking restrictions which would increase parking turnover for the business.

 

A site inspection also indicated that vehicles are parking within 10 metres at the intersection. It is proposed to install 10m ‘No Stopping’ restrictions at the intersection. The signage would strengthen the Road Rules requirement and stop vehicles from parking too close to the intersection.

The proposal was notified to the impacted and adjacent residents for a period of 14 days starting from 12 February 2024 to 26 February 2024. There were no responses received.

Hackney Street is a local road that runs in a north-south direction with a posted speed limit of 50km/h. The street is approximately 400m long and has a width of approximately 10.5m. Parking is permitted on both sides of the road unless signposted.

 

Currently, there is a speed hump in Hackney Street near Darling Street outside No.44.

 

A traffic count was undertaken on Hackney Street, Greystanes in March 2024. The traffic count location is shown in red on the map below.

 

 

Locality Plan

 

Traffic Count Data on Hackney Street, Greystanes:

 

·    Average Daily Traffic (ADT) = 1,477 veh/day,

·    85th percentile speed = 52.6 km/h,

·    Mean (average) vehicle speed = 45.2 km/h.

 

The latest Centre for Road Safety accident data indicated that there were no reported accidents on Hackney Street in the last 5 years ending June 2023 in relation to speeding.

 

Council’s Officers have investigated the request for the installation of traffic calming devices on Hackney Street in accordance with Council’s Local Area Traffic Management (LATM) Policy.

 

The result of the traffic count and recorded crashes were used in the assessment to determine the need for the installation of traffic calming devices on Hackney Street in accordance with the criteria set out in Council’s Local Area Traffic Management Policy (LATM) Policy.

 

The LATM assessments are summarised in the tables below:

Table 2 – Hackney Street, Greystanes– Action

Criteria	Action
>75	Report to TC with a recommendation of providing traffic calming devices
61-75	Report to TC and discuss possibility of providing traffic calming devices
41-60	Council to review traffic data in 6 months
25-40	Monitor street and review traffic data after 12 months
<25	Do Nothing
Speed	That regardless of the total points scored, should the 85th percentile speed exceed the posted speed limit by 5 km/h, the street be referred to the NSW Police for monitoring and/or enforcement.

The traffic count data indicated that the recorded 85th percentile speed was 52.6 km/h which is within acceptable range for a local street with a 50 km/h speed limit. Based on the above assessment, traffic calming devices are not warranted in the street.

However, as per Transport for NSW Delineation Guidelines, the installation of BL2 line marking (former ‘BB’ centre lines) is warranted when:

 

·    AADT is greater than 2,500 vehicles on urban roads.

·    Pavement width is greater than 5.5m.

·    To prohibit overtaking and U turn movements

Based on the traffic count data, Hackney Street has a AADT of 1,477 vehicles per day which does not meet the warrants for BL2 line marking, However, considering the 85^th percentile speed is over 50km/h, it is recommended to provide line marking in Hackney Street to better delineate traffic and improve safety.

 

Consultation has not been undertaken as no residents will be impacted by the proposed linemarking.

Note: Recommended for Approval under Delegated Authority

 

 

 

Council has received safety concerns regarding access to buses in Allen Street near its intersection with Finlayson Street, South Wentworthville.

 

This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.

 

Recommendation   The Traffic Committee recommends that:   1.   The installation of ‘No Stopping’ signs on Allen Street and Finlayson Street, South Wentworthville in accordance with the attached plan be approved.   2.   The affected residents be notified of the outcome.

 

 

Allen Street is a local road that runs in an east-west direction between Old Prospect Road and Richmond Steet with a speed limit of 50 km/h. It has a varying width and approximately 10.2m wide at the bus stop location under consideration and parking is permitted on both sides of the road unless otherwise signposted.

 

There is a refuge island positioned 20m west of the intersection of Allen Street and Finlayson Street and there are two existing bus zones situated on the northern and southern side of Allen Street approximately 40m west of the intersection.

 

Finlayson Street is a local road that runs in a north-south direction with speed limit of 50 km/h. It has a width of approximately 10.2m and parking is permitted on both sides of the road unless otherwise signposted.

 

Allen Street and Finlayson Street form a T-intersection with priority to Allen Street.

 

The map below shows the intersection.

 

  

Figure 1 – Locality Plan

 

The latest Centre for Road Safety accident data indicated that there was no reported accidents at this intersection in the 5 years ending June 2023.

 

It was observed that when cars are parked adjacent to the refuge island, the westbound vehicles especially buses cannot pass this area safely. It should be noted that the southern side of Allen Street west of Finlayson Street up to the bus zone signage is within the statutory ‘No Stopping’ zones related to the intersection and the pedestrian refuge.

 

It is proposed to install ‘No Stopping’ signs on the southern side of Allen Street from the existing ‘Bus Zone’ sign to Finlayson Street as per Transport for NSW Technical Direction and Road Rules requirement for pedestrian refuges and the intersection. As the proposed ‘No Stopping’ immediately joins the existing ‘Bus Zone’ on the southern side of Allen Street, it will assist in resolving the problem for buses when buses negotiate the refuge island. Additionally, it is proposed to install 10m ‘No Stopping’ on the northern / western side of Finlayson Street to enforce the road rule.

 

The attached plan shows the proposed ‘No Stopping’ signs at the intersection of Allen Street and Finlayson Street, South Wentworthville.

The proposal was notified to the impacted and adjacent residents for a period of 14 days starting from 29 February 2024 to 14 March 2024.

There were no responses received.

Note: Recommended for Approval under Delegated Authority

 

 

 

Council has received concerns from residents in Bulga Lane, Pemulwuy regarding difficulties in accessing their garages due to parked cars in the laneway. 

 

This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.

 

Recommendation   The Traffic Committee recommends that:   1.   The installation of 12.5m ‘No Stopping’ signs on the eastern side of Bulga Lane, Pemulwuy in accordance with the attached plan be approved.   2.   The affected / concerned residents be notified of the outcome.

 

 

Bulga Lane is a local road that runs in a one-way direction (northbound) between Wallan Street and Dullai Avenue with a speed limit of 50 km/h, parking is currently permitted on some sections of Bulga Lane, however most sections have ‘No Parking’ signs installed on one-side of the street. 

 

The section of interest is between Dungara Drive and Wallan Street, it has a width of approximately 5m and parking signage exists on neither side of the laneway which is different to rest of the Bulga Lane.

 

The properties between Wallan Street and Dungara Drive have their main frontage on Daruga Avenue and garage access on Bulga Lane.

 

Recently, Council received a complaint from a resident claiming that accessing the garage is difficult due to parked vehicles at this section of Bulga Lane. The resident alleged that in order to avoid the parked cars, vehicles were damaged while attempting to access the garage due to the kerb and gutter.

 

The map below shows Bulga Lane between Dungara Drive and Wallan Street.

 

  

Locality Plan

 

The latest Centre for Road Safety accident data indicated that there was no reported accident at this section of Bulga Lane in the last 5 years ending June 2023.

 

A swept path assessment indicates that when vehicles are parking on the eastern side of Bulga Lane, the residents cannot access single garages and will have difficulties to access double garages.

 

Council undertook a consultation with the residents in Bulga Lane and received 5 responses (33.3% of the total letter sent) by the closing date, with 1 response (20%) supporting and 4 responses (80%) opposing the proposed parking restrictions in the laneway. The resident who supported the proposal has indicated support of partial parking restriction in Bulga Lane at the affected area outside his garage.

Considering the feedback from the residents and the high parking demand at this location, it is recommended that 12.5m parking restriction be installed on the eastern side of Bulga Lane outside the garage of the resident who supported the proposed parking restrictions. 

The proposal was notified to the impacted and adjacent residents for a period of 14 days starting from 24 November 2023 to 8 December 2023.

There were 5 responses received. 1 response supported the proposal and 4 responses objected to the proposal with the reason of loss of on-street parking space.

Council has received a request from the residents in Nijong Drive to remove the redundant bus stops in Nijong Drive, Pemulwuy due to limited parking spaces for local residents.

 

This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.

 

Recommendation   The Traffic Committee recommends that:   1.   The removal of the redundant ‘Bus Zone’ signage on both sides of Nijong Drive, Pemulwuy as per attached plan be approved.   2.   The affected / concerned residents be notified of the outcome.

 

 

Nijong Drive is classified as a local road that runs in a north-south direction with a speed limit of 50 km/h. It has a width of approximately 6.5m and parking is permitted on both sides of the road in accordance with Road Rules unless signposted.

 

Council has received a request from local residents to remove the redundant Bus Zones in Nijong Drive, Pemulwuy due to limited parking spaces in the area. It is alleged by the resident that the existing bus stop on both sides of Nijong Drive outside No.77 are not in use. Consequently, residents have requested the removal of these ‘Bus Zones’ and the reinstatement of unrestricted parking at this location.  

 

Council consulted with the bus operator (Transit Systems) and was advised that both ‘Bus Zones’ are redundant as there is no bus route serving these stops.

 

 

Considering the existing ‘Bus Zone’ on both sides of Nijong Drive outside No.77 are no longer required.  It is proposed to remove both ‘Bus Zone’ at this section of Nijong Drive, Pemulwuy as per attached drawing. Unrestricted indented parking will be resumed to provide additional parking spaces to the residents.

The proposal was notified to the impacted and adjacent residents for a period of 14 days starting from 16 February 2024 to 29 February 2024. There were no responses received.

Electorate:                                        Prospect

Police Area Command (PAC):      Cumberland   

Agenda Part                                     Part 2

 

Note: Recommendation to Council

 

 

 

Council has received requests from residents to convert the laneway between Linden Street and Harvey Place, Toongabbie, to one-way traffic flow due to the narrow width of the laneway.

 

This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.

 

Recommendation   The Traffic Committee recommends that:   1.   The conversion of the laneway between Linden Street and Harvey Place, Toongabbie to westbound one-way traffic flow in accordance with the attached plan be approved.   2.   Council submit a Traffic Management Plan to Transport for NSW for endorsement.   3.   The affected / concerned residents be notified of the outcome.

 

 

The laneway situated at No 7 Linden Street serves as a connection between Linden Street and Harvey Place. It runs in an east-west direction with an approximate width of 5.5m.

 

Currently, this laneway has been used for two-way traffic flow with parking permitted on both sides, creating a potential safety issue due to its narrow width.

 

The map below shows the location of the laneway.

     Locality Plan

 

To address the safety concern, it is proposed to convert the laneway between Linden Street and Harvey Place to a westbound one-way traffic flow. This adjustment aims to reduce the risk of head-on accidents within the laneway while concurrently improving traffic conditions along Linden Street.

 

A traffic count was undertaken in the middle of the laneway in March 2024. The recorded Average Daily Traffic (AADT) is 30 veh/day which is unlikely to have any significantly impact to the local road network.

 

A total of 130 letters were distributed to the residents/owners in Linden Street and Harvey Place. Council received 5 responses by the closing date, all of them supported the proposed one-way arrangement.

The proposal was notified to the residents in Linden Street and Harvey Place for a period of 14 days from 1 March 2024 to 15 March 2024.

 

A total of 130 letters were distributed to the residents/owners in Linden Street and Harvey Place. Council received 5 responses by the closing date, all of them supported the proposed one-way arrangement.

Agenda Part                                     Part 2

 

Note: Recommendation to Council

 

 

 

Council has received requests from residents to convert Burraga Way and Muttong Street, Pemulwuy to one-way traffic flow to allow additional on-street parking spaces in the street.

 

This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.

 

Recommendation   The Traffic Committee recommends that:   1.   The proposed one-way traffic flow arrangement of Burraga Way and Muttong Street, Pemulwuy in accordance with the attached plan be approved in principle.   2.   Council prepare a Traffic Management Plan of the arrangement to inform further consultation with the residents and Transport for NSW.   3.   The affected / concerned residents be notified of the outcome.

 

 

Muttong Street is a local road that runs in a north-south direction with a speed limit of 50 km/h. It has a width of approximately 5.5m and indented bay is provided on the western side of the street. Parking at other sections of the street is not permitted.

 

Burraga Way is a local road that runs in an east-west direction with a speed limit of 50 km/h. It has a width of approximately 5.5m and indented bay is provided on the northern side of the street. Parking at other sections of the street is not permitted.

 

Currently, both streets are used for two-way traffic flow and parking is not permitted due to the narrowness of the road.

Locality Plan

 

Council has received requests from residents to convert Burraga Way and Muttong Street, Pemulwuy to one-way traffic flow.    

 

To address the resident’s concern and considering the existing indented parking bays, it is proposed to convert Burraga Way (westbound) and Muttong Street (southbound) to a one-way traffic flow. This adjustment would reduce the risk of head-on accidents.

 

As Burraga Street and Muttong Street are only used by the local residents, therefore, the proposed one-way arrangement will not have any major impact to the local road network.

 

A total of 48 letters were distributed to the residents/owners in Burraga Way and Muttong Street. Council received 6 responses. Two responses supported the proposal and four responses objected to the proposal. The objections identified concerns with specific design elements of the arrangement including access to and from driveways, available on-street parking, and concerns regarding travel times with the one-way arrangement.

 

The proposal was notified to the residents in Burraga way and Muttong Street for a period of 14 days from 12 March 2024 to 26 March 2024.

A total of 48 letters were distributed to the resident/owners in Burraga Way and Muttong Street.

Council received 6 responses. Two responses supported the proposal and four responses objected to the proposal.

Council has received concerns from local residents regarding road safety on Hampden Road, South Wentworthville. Cumberland Traffic Committee (CTC) considered a report in February 2024 (CTC-24-056) regarding road safety on Hampden Road, South Wentworthville. Traffic Committee recommended that:

 

1.   The installation of speed humps on Hampden Road, South Wentworthville in accordance with the attached plan be approved.

 

2.   Council investigate other alternative road safety measures at particular locations along Hampden Road, as outlined in this report, and report the findings to the Traffic Committee in April 2024.

 

3.   Council notify affected / concerned residents of the outcome.

 

Following the recommendation, Council investigated alternative road safety measures on Hampden Road, South Wentworthville accordingly. There are three road safety measures been prepared and included in this report:

 

·    ‘BL2 – Double Centre Line Marking’

·    ‘EL1 – Edge Line Marking’

·    Blister Islands

 

As per Transport for NSW Delineation and Pavement Marking Standard, the installation of Edge Line Marking (EL1) and Barrier Line Marking (BL2) are warranted when:

 

 

The traffic count data from 2020 indicated that the Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) of Hampden Road was 2,147 per day. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that the current AADT of Hampden Road meets the warrant for BL2 line marking. The provision of BL2 and EL1 line marking would better delineate traffic flow and improve safety on the street.

 

Blister islands of various dimensions have been proposed outside No. 13, 32, and 92, respectively, aiming to enhance safety by reducing the road width. However, the implementation of these blister islands will also lead to the loss of on-street parking spaces. Plans with proposed three road safety measures are attached with this report.

Subject to endorsement, consultation will be undertaken with directly affected residents.
