Agenda Part Part 1
Note: Recommended for Approval under Delegated Authority
Summary
Council has received a request from the management of a Place of Worship in Rose Crescent, Regents Park for the installation of appropriate restrictions to prevent large trucks parking in the street and causing safety concerns and access issues for worshippers and road users.
This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.
The Traffic Committee recommends:
1. The installation of “No Parking, Motor Vehicles Under 4.5 t GVM Excepted” signs on the northern side of Rose Crescent, Regents Park in accordance with the attached plan be approved.
2. The persons with the request and affected properties be advised of the outcome.
Report
Council has received a request from the management of a Place of Worship in Rose Crescent, Regents Park for the installation appropriate restrictions to prevent large trucks parking in the street and causing safety concerns and access issues for worshippers and road users.
Rose Crescent is a local road that runs in an eastern direction from Park Road upto the bend at Chisholm Road. It is approximately 10.6m wide and has a speed limit of 50km/hr. Sydney Water pipelines run on the southern side of the street and industrial properties located on the northern side. There are three Places of Worship located on the northern side which attract high volume of worshippers attending on special days and weekends and large number of people on normal days.
The map below shows the location of Rose Crescent and details of the signage:
The street view below shows the area and truck parking.
Large trucks park in this area during day, night and continuously during weekends. Council rangers have been called in the past to enforce the one hour parking requirement for trucks under the Road Rules.
Council has received concerns from one of the places of worship that large trucks and trailers park at the frontage on both sides of the driveway obstructing visibility for vehicles driving out of the properties causing near misses and crashes. It is also indicated that trucks park in the evenings and overnight when the places of worship are attended by large number of people causing serious safety concerns.
It is alleged that the waste collection at the places of worship occurring three times a week are obstructed by parked trucks blocking access which result in the facilities being charged for missed collection. It is also alleged that the delays in collecting the large bins result in environmental concerns. The parked trucks also reduce turning path clearance to allow service vehicles to provide delivery and waste collection activities off-street.
Council officers have investigated the concerns. It was observed during inspections in the area at different times that large trucks and trailers are parked on Rose Crescent.
In view of the above, it is considered necessary to signpost as proposed due to the following considerations:
· The area is an industrial area where a large number of trucks accessing the sites.
· The large number of people gathering at places of worship.
· Council rangers cannot be present all the time particularly in the evenings and nights when the places of worship are holding events.
· All loading and unloading for the premises occur off-street.
It is proposed to install “No Parking, Motor Vehicles Under 4.5 t GVM Excepted” signs on the northern side of Rose Crescent, Regents Park in accordance with the attached plan.
COnsultation
The proposal was notified to the impacted and adjacent properties for a period of 14 days starting from 7 March 2025 to 21 March 2025.
There was one submission received supporting the proposal.

Agenda Part Part 1
Note: Recommended for Approval under Delegated Authority
Summary
Council has received safety concerns from residents in Regent Street and Campbell Street at the intersection of Leonie Crescent, Berala.
This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.
The Traffic Committee recommends that:
1. The installation of ‘Give Way’ signs, line marking, and ‘No Stopping’ restrictions in Regent Street and Campbell Street at the intersection of Leonie Crescent, Berala in accordance with attached plan be approved.
2. The resident with the request and affected residents be advised of the outcome.
Report
Regent Street is local road that runs in a north-south direction with a speed limit of 50 km/h. It has a width of approximately 12.5 m and parking is permitted on both sides of the road unless otherwise signposted.
Campbell Street is local road that runs in a north-south direction with a speed limit of 50 km/h. It has a width of approximately 12.5 m and parking is permitted on both sides of the road unless otherwise signposted.
Leonie Crescent is a local road that mainly runs an east-west direction with a cul-de-sac at its southern end. The road is approximately 7.5 m wide, with parking allowed on both sides of the road unless otherwise signposted.
Regent Street connects to Campbell Street, and both intersect at Leonie Crescent forming a Y- intersection with priority to Regent Street and Campbell Street.
The map below shows the intersection.
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.
Residents have raised concerns about vehicles parking within 10 metres of the intersection. Inspections confirmed that vehicles are parking too close to the intersection, creating potential safety risks. To address this, it is proposed to install ‘No Stopping’ restrictions and ‘BL2’ line marking at the intersection.
Inspections also revealed that no line marking, or signage is provided at this intersection and the Y-shaped intersection could confuse drivers, as the road geometry makes the 'Give Way' priorities unclear.
In accordance with Australian Standard AS 1742.2-2009 – Part 2: Traffic Control Devices for General Use, controls are required at all non-signalised intersections in the following manner:
a) GIVE WAY signs shall be provided at all intersections with four or more legs.
b) GIVE WAY signs shall be provided at any three-way intersections where the layout is such that it is not clear how or whether the T-intersection rule would operate, for example, at a Y-intersection.
c) GIVE WAY signs should be used for road safety reasons at unsignalised T-intersections in both rural and urban areas where the major road is an arterial or collect type road.
Based on point (b) above, 'Give Way' signage is warranted at this location. Therefore, it is recommended that ‘Give Way’ controls be provided at this intersection to prevent vehicles from failure to give way to traffic on Regent Street and Campbell Street.
COnsultation
The proposal was notified to the impacted and adjacent residents for a period of 14 days starting from 1 March 2025 to 14 March 2025.
No submissions were received.

Summary
Council has received a request from a resident for the installation of ‘No Stopping’ restrictions on the east side of Clyde Street, Granville between Fifth Street and Sixth Street.
This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.
That the Traffic Committee recommends that:
1. The proposed ‘No Stopping’ restrictions and ‘Bus Zone’ signage on the eastern side of Clyde Street, Granville between Fifth Street and Sixth Street, and BL2 line marking on Sixth Street, in accordance with the attached plan, be approved in-principle.
2. Consultation be undertaken with directly affected residents and a report be provided back to the Traffic Committee meeting if objections are received.
3. The resident that made the request and affected residents be notified of the outcome.
Report
Clyde Street is a collector road that runs in a north– south direction with a posted speed limit of 60 km/h. It has a width of approximately 12.2 m and parking is permitted on both sides of the road unless sign posted.
Council has received a concern regarding the eastern side of Clyde Street, between Sixth Street and the laneway south of Fifth Street due to parked vehicles obstructing sight distance for motorists.
A review of the existing signage revealed that a bus stop for Route S2 and school buses is located on the eastern side of Clyde Street, just north of Sixth Street. However, there is currently no ‘Bus Zone’ signage at this location, which may lead to unauthorised parking and hinder bus operations.
To address these issues, it is proposed to install both ‘No Stopping’ and ‘Bus Zone’ signage on the eastern side of Clyde Street. This will reinforce road rules, improve sight distance and ensure clear access for buses. It is also proposed to install ‘BL2’ centre line on Sixth Street.
A plan has been attached showing the details of the proposal.
COnsultation
Subject to endorsement, consultation will be undertaken with directly affected residents on the proposal.

WARREN ROAD AND WOODPARK ROAD, WOODPARK – REQUEST FOR A ROUNDABOUT
Directorate: Environment and Planning
Responsible Officer: Manager Engineering and Building
Electorate: Granville
Police Area Command (PAC): Cumberland
Agenda Part Part 1
Note: Recommended for Approval under Delegated Authority
Summary
This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.
The Traffic Committee recommended that:
1. The installation of ‘No stopping’ signs and line marking on the Warren Road approaches at the intersection with Woodpark Road, Woodpark, in accordance with the attached plan be approved in-principle.
2. Council undertake consultation with affected residents and report back to the Traffic Committee if objections are received.
3. The resident that made the request and affected residents be advised of the outcome.
Report
Council has received a request from a local resident for the construction of a roundabout at the intersection of Warren Road and Woodpark Road, Woodpark due to safety concerns.
Woodpark Road is a regional road connecting Cumberland Highway and Great Western Highway via Sherwood Road and Centenary Road. It has a speed limit of 60 km/hr and trafficable 4-lanes at this intersection.
Warren Road is a local road that is in an north south direction and has a speed limit of 50 km/hr.
Warren Road and Woodpark Road form an intersection with priority to Woodpark Road with ‘STOP’ signs on the Warren Road approaches.
Woodpark Road has lane lines marked leading to its signalised intersection with Cumberland Highway and peak period ‘No Stopping signs in mid-block to assist traffic flow.
Council has received concerns from a local resident regarding road safety at the intersection of Warren Road and Woodpark Road.
The latest crash data indicates that there were three reported crashes at the intersection of Warren Road and Woodpark Road in the five years ending June 2024. The crash details are listed in the table below.

The daily and peak hour traffic volumes in Woodpark Road are over 10 times greater in comparison to Warren Road. It is also noted that the traffic volumes show the importance of Woodpark Road being a regional road in the hierarchy of the network.
Considering the uneven traffic flow from the two streets, it indicates that there may be undue delays at the intersection especially for Woodpark Road traffic if a roundabout is implemented.
According to Austroads Guide to Traffic Management Part 6 – Intersections, Interchanges and Crossings, Table 2.10: Key traffic management considerations in the selection of roundabouts.
“Dominant flows on one approach may lead to excessive delay on the subsequent approach…”
In addition, Council has also checked the geometry of a roundabout if provided at this location. The roundabout is required to be allowing for two lanes in each direction on Woodpark Road to facilitate smooth and efficient operation of the regional road approach to the traffic signals at Cumberland Highway. The roundabout design has to allow for large trucks and buses travelling in Woodpark Road at a reasonable speed and is likely to require large land acquisition of the corner properties.
Based on the above considerations, a roundabout at the intersection of Woodpark Road and Warren Road is not proposed at this time. However, in response to the issue provided, it is proposed to install ‘No Stopping’ signs and line marking at the intersection to enhance safety at this location, as outlined in the attached plan.
COnsultation
Subject to endorsement, consultation will be undertaken on the signage and line marking proposal.

DAMIEN AVENUE, GREYSTANES - ROAD SAFETY CONCERNS
Directorate: Environment and Planning
Responsible Officer: Manager Engineering and Building
Electorate: Prospect
Police Area Command (PAC): Cumberland
Agenda Part Part 2
Note: Recommendation to Council
Summary
Council has undertaken consultation with resident for the proposed speed humps in Damien Avenue, Greystanes.
This report outlines the outcome of the review.
The Traffic Committee recommends that Council investigate alternate measures for speed calming including a combination of speed humps and local traffic management devices and undertake further consultation with the affected residents.
Report
Cumberland Traffic Committee (CTC) at its meeting in June 2024 considered a report (CTC-24-135) regarding road safety concerns on Damien Avenue, Greystanes. Council resolved to undertake designs on the location of speed humps, consult with affected and adjacent residents on the proposed design and report back to the Traffic Committee.
Following the resolution, a design was prepared as attached to this report and consultation was carried out with the residents of Damien Avenue accordingly in October 2024. Council received 15 responses (29% of the total letters sent) by the closing date, 6 responses (40%) were in support and 9 responses (60%) opposed to the proposal. Based on the results, the majority of residents opposed the installation of the proposed speed humps.
As an alternative, consideration was given to the implementation of BL2 line marking as a road safety response; however, Damien Avenue is approximately 7 metres wide and the implementation of these line markings would reduce the availability of on-street parking at this location.
Given the consultation results and the ongoing community interest in the matter, it is recommended that Council officers explore alternate measures for traffic calming, such as alternate speed hump locations, vehicle activated signs and other potential traffic management devices, and for further consultation to be undertaken with directly affected residents.
COnsultation
The proposal was notified to the impacted resident for a period of 14 days from 23 October 2024 to 6 November 2024.
A total of 51 letters were distributed with an attached survey form to the residents / owners. There were 15 responses (29% of the total letters sent) received by the closing date, 6 responses (40%) were in support and 9 responses (60%) opposed to the proposal.

GILBA ROAD GIRRAWEEN – PROPOSED MODIFICATIONS TO PREVIOUSLY APPROVED RAISED PEDESTRIAN CROSSING
Directorate: Environment and Planning
Responsible Officer: Manager Engineering and Building
Electorate: Granville
Police Area Command (PAC): Cumberland
Agenda Part Part 2
Note: Recommendation to Council
Summary
Council has received funding under the ‘Active Transport to School’ stream of the FY2024/25 Get NSW Active program for the construction of a raised pedestrian crossing on Gilba Road, Girraween at Girraween Public School.
This report provides an update on the progress of the project.
The Traffic Committee recommends that:
1. The modifications to the proposed raised pedestrian crossing on Gilba Road, Girraween (outside Girraween Public School) in accordance with the attached plan be supported.
2. Council notify adjacent residents and school of the outcome.
Report
Cumberland Traffic Committee at its meeting held on 3 August 2022 considered a report (CTC-22-151) on the safety concerns at the existing at-level pedestrian crossing on Gilba Road, Girraween outside Girraween Public School.
The Traffic Committee recommended that:
1. Proposed raised pedestrian crossing on Gilba Road, Girraween outside Girraween Public School be supported in principle.
2. Council includes construction of the raised pedestrian crossing in a future Capital Works Program.
3. Council notifies the adjacent residents and Girraween Public School prior to construction.
Subsequently, Council approved the traffic committee recommendations.
Following the above, Council applied for funding and was successful under the ‘Active Transport to School stream of the FY2024/25 Get NSW Active program’.
The approved concept had kerb blister islands and existing median islands at the location.
Following further discussions with Transport for NSW and Council, both parties agreed to redesign the facility with road narrowing instead of kerb blisters. With this design, the existing ‘No Stopping’ zones on both sides can be reduced in accordance with Australian Standards and Transport for NSW guidelines.
This reduction enables Council to provide 35 m long ‘No Parking’ School Days zone on the northern side of Gilba Road outside the school to assist drop off/pick up activities for school. Residents will be able to park in these areas outside of hours.
Council has modified the design and the revised plan is attached. It is recommended that the revised project design be supported.

CHARLES STREET, GRANVILLE - CONCERNS AT THE INTERSECTION WITH BLAXCELL STREET
Directorate: Environment and Planning
Responsible Officer: Manager Engineering and Building
Electorate: Granville
Police Area Command (PAC): Cumberland
Agenda Part Part 2
Note: Recommendation to Council
Summary
Council has received safety concerns at the intersection of Blaxcell Street and Charles Street, Granville with respect to queuing vehicles on Blaxcell Street blocking Charles Street and safety of vehicles exiting from Charles Street.
This report outlines the issues and proposes future action.
The Cumberland Traffic Committee recommends that Council prepare a Traffic Management Plan for the precinct bound by Adam Street, Excelsior Street, Louis Street, Fifth Street and Clyde Street to identify desired traffic flow options.
Report
Council has received safety concerns at the intersection of Blaxcell Street and Charles Street, Granville with respect to the ongoing issue of queuing vehicles on Blaxcell Street blocking Charles Street and safety of vehicles entering and exiting from Charles Street.
Charles Street is a local road that runs in an east-west direction between Blaxcell Street and The Trongate and is approximately 140 m long. It has a varying width between approximately 6.8 to 9.2 m. There are also indented parallel parking bays in the street. The posted speed limit is 50 km/h.
Blaxcell Street is a local collector road that runs in a north-south direction, it has a width of approximately 12m with a 50 km/h speed limit.
The map below shows the location of Charles Street, Granville.
Traffic conditions at the intersection
Council has received several community concerns at the intersection of Blaxcell Street and Charles Street.
The issues raised are:
· Southbound vehicles queuing in the kerbside lane to obtain access to the service station at the corner of Blaxcell Street and Celia Street. The queuing sometimes extends into the roundabout at Louis Street which is over 100 m
· The queued vehicles block buses accessing the bus stop south of Charles Street, forcing buses to stop in the middle lane. This creates safety concerns for bus passengers.
· Council investigated possible options including ‘Keep Clear’ pavement marking at Charles Street; however, the location does not warrant the pavement marking in accordance with Transport for NSW guidelines.
· Council previously considered the option of relocating the pedestrian crossing on Blaxcell Street at the frontage of the service station and the bus stop south of Celia Street. This proposal was not progressed due to objections from residents.
· There were requests for the closure of Charles Street to avoid conflict points.
Crash data
The latest crash data indicates that there were no reported crashes at the intersection of Blaxcell Street and Charles Street in the five years, ending June 2024. However, Council has received numerous complaints of unreported crashes and near misses.
Council has also been requested to investigate the concerns to resolve the concerns, including any traffic movement changes to improve road safety.
Process for road closures or banning movement of traffic
In accordance with the Transport for NSW (TfNSW) guidelines, Council does not have delegation to close a road or ban any traffic movement without preparing and receiving approval from TfNSW of a Traffic Management Plan (TMP).
The TMP deals with various impacts of the road closure including
· Justification for the decision to permanently close the road or ban movements. The impacts of the proposal have to be modelled using appropriate software and justification for the proposed closure analysed.
· Measures to ameliorate re-assigned traffic.
· Any impact of public transport services (if any).
· Impact on emergency vehicle and heavy vehicle access and alternate routes.
· Impact on other streets in the area.
In addition, one of the requirements of the TMP is that the proposal to be advertised and public comments summarised and addressed.
Next steps
Council proposes to undertake a combined traffic modelling and subsequent area wide traffic study which will evaluate options and provide recommendations for future traffic controls within the precinct (Granville South - Traffic Management Plan). Once the Traffic Management Plan is developed, it is proposed to undertake consultation with the community on the proposed measures recommended.
A further report will be brought back to the Traffic Committee once the study and traffic management plan is complete, prior to undertaking community consultation.
The study area is shown in the map below with the three streets under consideration, namely, Lavinia Street, Redfern Street and Charles Street:

Subject to endorsement, consultation will be undertaken following the preparation of a traffic study if supported by the Traffic Committee.

Request for permanent closure of Lavinia Street at this section
There are several considerations of closing Lavinia Street, including:
· Access to the parks via Lavinia Street is affected to the users who live on the eastern side must take detours to access the park via vehicle.
· Available 90-degree indented parking on Lavinia Street will be reduced for the provision of a cul-de-sac or turning bay at the closure.
· Impact on adjacent streets with additional traffic.
· Opportunity to integrate the open space areas in this location to provide continuous access without crossing the road.

In accordance with the Transport for NSW (TfNSW) guidelines, Council does not have delegation to close a road without preparing and receiving approval from TfNSW of a Traffic Management Plan (TMP).
The TMP deals with various impacts of the road closure including
· Justification for the decision to permanently close the road or ban movements.
The impacts of the proposal have to be modelled using appropriate software and justification for the proposed closure analysed.
· Measures to ameliorate re-assigned traffic.
· Any impact of public transport services (if any).
· Impact on emergency vehicle and heavy vehicle access and alternate routes.
· Impact on other streets in the area.
In addition, one of the requirements of the TMP is that the proposal to be advertised and public comments summarised and addressed.
Next steps
There are three reports provided in this agenda dealing with traffic flow changes which will have a cumulative impact in the precinct bound by Adam Street, Excelsior Street, Louis Street & Fifth Street and Clyde Street. The other two roads of primary concern within the precinct are Charles Street at the Blaxcell Street intersection and Redfern Street.
Council proposes to undertake a combined traffic modelling and subsequent area wide traffic study which will evaluate options and provide recommendations for future traffic controls within the precinct (Granville South - Traffic Management Plan). Once the Traffic Management Plan is developed, it is proposed to undertake consultation with the community on the proposed measures recommended.
A further report will be brought back to the Traffic Committee once the study and traffic management plan is complete, prior to undertaking community consultation.
The study area is shown in the map below with the three streets under consideration, namely, Lavinia Street, Redfern Street and Charles Street:

Council has been requested to investigate the concerns to resolve them including any traffic movement changes to improve road safety. A range of options may be considered, including:
· Parking restrictions on one side or both sides to increase the travel lane widths to facilitate two-way traffic with desired traffic lane width.
· Turning bans for selected traffic movements.
· One-way arrangement in Redfern Street.
It is noted that some of these options may require supporting additional infrastructure to be successfully delivered.
Process for conversion to one-way or banning movement of traffic
In accordance with the Transport for NSW (TfNSW) guidelines, Council does not have delegation to close a road or ban any traffic movement without preparing and receiving approval from TfNSW of a Traffic Management Plan (TMP).
The TMP deals with various impacts of the road closure including
· Justification for the decision to permanently close the road or ban movements.

MONA STREET, AUBURN & SOUTH GRANVILLE – PARKING RESTRICTION MODIFICATION
Directorate: Environment and Planning
Responsible Officer: Manager Engineering and Building
Electorate: Auburn
Police Area Command (PAC): Auburn
Agenda Part Part 2
Note: Recommendation to Council
Summary
Council has received requests from residents and motorists regarding traffic congestions in Mona Street, Auburn and South Granville during peak hours.
This report outlines the outcome of the investigation into this matter.
The Traffic Committee recommends that Council undertake consultation with the residents and broader community on proposed changes to parking restrictions along Mona Street between Clyde Street and Chisholm Road, and provide a further report on the consultation results to the Traffic Committee.
Mona Street is a local road that runs in an east-west direction with a speed limit of 50 km/h. It has approximately 1.3km in length and approximately 12.6m in width. Parking is permitted on both sides of the road unless otherwise signposted.
Cumberland Traffic Committee (CTC) at its meeting on 5 February 2025 considered a report (CTC-25-012) regarding the extension of the existing part-time 'No Parking' restrictions on the southern side of Mona Street, Granville, near Clyde Street, and the Traffic Committee recommended that:
1. Replace the existing ‘No Parking, 2:30pm - 6:30pm, Mon – Fri’ on the southern side of Mona Street between No. 150 to No.172 to ‘No Parking, 7am – 9:30am, 2:30pm – 6:30pm, Mon – Fri’ as per attached plan.
2. Install a 27m Bus Zone at the existing bus stop on the southern side of Mona Street near No. 172 as per attached plan.
Following the Traffic Committee meeting, additional concerns were raised by residents regarding the extension of the parking restrictions further east to Chisholm Road, improve the traffic flow during peak hours along Mona Street and Chisholm Road.
The map below shows the area:
The following changes to line marking and signposting are proposed:
· For Mona Street (east of Duck River) with travel in the western direction, ‘No Parking’ restrictions are proposed through two options: PM peak only, and AM / PM peak.
· For Mona Street (west of Duck River) with travel in the western direction, ‘No Parking’ restrictions are proposed through two options: PM peak only, and AM / PM peak.
By extending the parking restrictions during busy periods, it will allow for additional vehicles to be accommodated over two lanes where this is provided for along Mona Street. It is anticipated that this would also assist in queue lengths along Chisholm Street for vehicles travelling towards Mona Street.
Given the community interest in traffic movements at this location, it is recommended that the Traffic Committee and Council endorse that the proposal be progressed to consultation. If supported, consultation will be undertaken by Council officers with residents and the broader community and a further report provided to the Traffic Committee.
COnsultation
Subject to endorsement, consultation will be undertaken on the proposals.
