1. Introduction

1.1 Background

The Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy for the North Sydney Local Government Area (LGA) identified the need to develop Local Area Traffic Management (LATM) action plans. These plans provide specific measures to maintain and improve traffic and parking management. There are seven LATM zones within the North Sydney LGA, with three located on the west of the Warringah Freeway and four to the east, as seen in Figure 1.1.

2.1 ScopeandMethodology

This study has been divided into the following key components:

review of LATM Zone 4 context and assessment of current traffic and transport issues; assessment of emerging issues and expected developments, modal shifts and changes in traffic and

parking demands in LATM Zone 4; summarising Council’s current list of traffic actions for LATM Zone 4; identification of additional traffic actions for LATM Zone 4 drawn from detailed analysis of principal-

supplied data and site inspections; development of a prioritised list of actions for LATM Zone 4; and review of key on-street parking areas for LATM Zone 4, and development of a priority list for detailed

parking surveys.

The study relies upon data provided by North Sydney Council in conjunction with site investigations. Where data has not been available, potential traffic issues and modal conflict issues have been identified based on site observations and public feedback submissions by residents.

2.2 StudyObjectives

2.2.1 2013‐2023NorthSydneyCommunityStrategicPlan(2013)

The North Sydney Community Strategic Plan (CSP) was developed by Council in consultation with the community of North Sydney LGA. This plan was revised from the identified priorities and strategies in 2009 for North Sydney to cover a 10-year horizon from 2013 to 2023.

The plan is a broad strategy for the whole North Sydney LGA and does not identify by individual wards. To provide a unified vision across the whole LGA, the plan identified five key directions:

Direction 1 – Our Living Environment; Direction 2 – Our Built Environment; Direction 3 – Our Economic Vitality; Direction 4 – Our Social Vitality; and Direction 5 – Our Civic Leadership.

These key directions clearly categorise the community strategic goals for North Sydney by identifying the desired outcomes and the strategies to achieve these outcomes. The plan also identifies indicators, to measure the progress of the strategies. The relevant objectives from the CSP are:

1.2 Quality urban greenspaces; 2.1 Infrastructure, assets and facilities that meet community needs; 2.3 Vibrant, connected and well maintained streetscapes and villages that build a sense of community; 2.5 Sustainable transport is encouraged; 2.6 Improved traffic management; 2.7 Improved parking options and supply; 4.7 Community is active and healthy; and 4.9 Enhanced community safety and accessibility.

2.2.2 NorthSydneyIntegratedTrafficandParkingStrategy(2015)

The North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy was developed to address the identified traffic and parking issues and to rationalise the parking and traffic controls created by a range of factors, such as:

increase in car usage by the existing population; increase in the number of workers and visitors to the area; and increase in residential and commercial development in and around the

LGA.

The Strategy proposed to manage traffic and parking matters within the LGA is based on seven (7) LATM Zones. No changes to the existing 33 resident parking areas are proposed under the adopted Strategy, however; parking restrictions within each of the (7) LATM Zones will be reviewed. It also introduces the concept of a scoring tool to assess the existing traffic and parking conditions. For traffic, cycling and pedestrian facilities the scoring considers a range of criteria including safety, traffic volumes, speed, pedestrian and cyclist volumes, activity generators, parking occupancy, parking turnover and alignment with the objectives of Council's Community Strategic Plan. For parking facilities, the methodology considers the existing parking supply, the surrounding land uses that generate parking demand, and occupancy and turnover rates, which are used to determine the most appropriate controls to apply to the existing parking supply to manage parking demand and reduce transfer of parking demand to surrounding streets within an area.

The North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy was adopted by Council in May 2015.

2.2.3 NorthSydneyIntegratedCyclingStrategy(2014)

The North Sydney Integrated Cycling Strategy aims to provide a high quality built environment conducive to walking and cycling and to provide safe, accessible, and connected walking and cycling routes along key strategic links. The Strategy further aims to promote cycling as a sustainable transport option for North Sydney commuters.

The strategy assessed the existing cycling network and identified the issues, and subsequently identified upgrades required to mitigate the issues in unison with the North Sydney Community Strategy Plan.

Issues identified included:

incomplete cycling network connections; some difficult sections (e.g. steep grades) within the defined cycling routes; inconsistent and insufficient bicycle route signage; insufficient bicycle parking facilities; and the lack of safety associated with cyclists sharing road space with traffic.

The Integrated Cycling Strategy outlines five routes aimed at increasing the safety and connectivity of cycling infrastructure within the North Sydney LGA. One key proposed route was identified within LATM Zone 7 to increase the safety and connectivity of the cycling network of North Sydney. Figure 2.1 shows the proposed cycling route (known as “Route 3”) connecting North Sydney and Milsons Point to Mosman.

Route 3 enters LATM Zone 7 along Clark Road and continues along Broughton Street before utilising the underpass at Milsons Point Train Station to connect with the Harbour Bridge Cycleway or Alfred Street and to North Sydney.

The strategy also included an implementation plan with cost estimates, timelines, and processes for stakeholder involvement in taking these routes forward.

The North Sydney Integrated Cycling Strategy was adopted by Council in July 2014.

2.2.4 DraftNorthSydneyTransportStrategy(2017)

The Draft North Sydney Transport Strategy (NSTS) is proposed as Council’s guiding document for the delivery of its transport planning and management functions. This includes strategic transport planning, transport advocacy and the delivery of local transport projects.

The NSTS builds on the directions, outcomes and strategies detailed in North Sydney’s Community Strategic Plan 2013-23 (CSP) and Ecologically Sustainable Development Best Practice Project 2014 (ESD) to create an over-arching transport planning and management framework for the whole of Council.

The Draft North Sydney Transport Strategy is scheduled for public exhibition in July 2017 and adoption by Council in late 2017.

2.2.5 PublicDomainStyleManualandDesignCodes(2016)

The North Sydney Public Domain Style Manual and Design Codes were developed to outline the approaches to implement the public domain infrastructure improvements in North Sydney. The North Sydney LGA was divided into eight different precinct types, with each precinct having a style and design guide to allow consistency and unison across the whole LGA. The North Sydney LGA precincts are shown in Figure 2.2.

The North Sydney Public Domain Style Manual and Design Codes were adopted by Council in November 2014 and amended in 2016.

The majority of the study area is defined as Low Density Residential with sections of Medium Density Residential west of Miller Street and a small section to the east near Alan Street. Pockets of High Density Residential properties are located near the Warringah Freeway, Miller Street and accesses off Carter Street and Cammeray Road towards to the south-east of the LATM Zone. There are also areas of Public Recreational, such as parks, Neighbourhood Centres, Environmental Conservation and Infrastructure such as religious and educational facilities.

The LEP also defines the heritage items and conservation areas, as shown in Figure 3.3.

Source: North Sydney LEP (2013)

Figure 3.3: Heritage Items and Conservation Area

Two sections of conservation area exist, sharing a common boundary, in the central part of LATM Zone 4 and Cammeray. These zones are the Cammeray Conservation Area (Area CA01) and the Plateau Conservation Area (CA02). Several heritage items are also contained in the western and central section of LATM Zone 4 including:

Cammeray Public School; a tree at the corner of Pine Street and Miller Street; Long Gully Bridge; bus stop shelters; Cammeray Anglican Church; and a range of other properties.

The eastern part of the study area does not contain any conservation areas.

3.2.2 NorthSydneyDevelopmentControlPlan(2013)

The North Sydney Development Control Plan (DCP) 2013 aims to ensure that the development positively contributes to the quality of the natural and built environments as well as the quality of the site and its context. The DCP aims to ensure that the objectives of Council’s 2020 Vision – North Sydney Community Strategic Plan are achieved.

The DCP consists of three parts:

Part A – General Requirements (The general requirement of information required prior to an application lodgement);

Part B – Development Controls (The development controls to be complied with prior to approval); and

Part C – Area Character Statement (Additional controls to be complied with for specific area).

LATM Zone 4 is located entirely within Section 4: Cammeray Planning Area. The Cammeray Planning Area is divided into smaller localities based on the corresponding land use, such as commercial areas, town centres, residential areas and heritage conservation areas. The localities contained within LATM Zone 4 include:

Anzac Neighbourhood; Cammeray Neighbourhood; Palmer Neighbourhood; Cammeray Village Centre; Cammeray Conservation Area; and Plateau Conservation Area.

The Cammeray Planning Area and smaller localities are shown in Figure 3.4.

3.3 RoadNetwork

3.3.1 RoadHierarchy

The Warringah Freeway borders the western side of the study area, with Miller Street/Strathallen Avenue providing the primary north-south road connection for Willoughby to North Sydney

Amherst Street, Cammeray Road, and Carter Street are the main east-west roads in the study area. Armhest Street and Cammeray Road provide connections with Ernest Street and Military Road to the south of the study area.

Topography limits the length of some local streets and limits permeation in the area as a number of local streets terminate in cul-de-sacs, rather than providing through traffic connections. Other local streets in the study area typically follow ridges and contours. Some steep grade and narrow streets are found in the study area, particularly on the northern and north-eastern fringes.

Miller Street is a state road carrying substantial through and local traffic, connecting adjacent regions and connecting with local east-west roads. Amherst Street, Cammeray Road, parts of Palmer Street, Bellevue Street, Park Avenue and Grafton Street are classified as collector roads. An overview of the road hierarchy is shown in Figure 3.5, all following maps in this section can be found in Appendix A.

Local roads within LATM Zone 4 are posted at a speed limit of 50km/h. 40km/h school zones are in operation between 8:00AM-9:30AM and 2:30PM-4:00PM on school days on selected sections of the following roads, namely:

Miller Street; Palmer Street; and Bellevue Street.

Speed data from 2011 to 2016 was analysed by calculating the “weighted average” of the hourly 85th percentile speed relative to the hourly traffic volumes. The results indicate in the majority of locations, the surveyed 85th percentile speeds are below the respective posted speed limit. The location and results of the speed surveys are summarised in Table 3.2.

3.3.4 CrashData

Crash data was summarised for a five-year period from 2011 to 2015. Figure 3.6 shows a ‘heat map’ distribution of crashes within LATM Zone 4 for this time period, with the Warringah Freeway omitted from the analysis. Clustering can be seen along Miller Street and connecting streets. The roads identified to experience the most crashes are:

Miller Street (state road), particularly at Amherst Street and Carter Street; Cammeray Road; Palmer Street; and The Boulevarde.

Figure 3.7 shows the severity of crashes within LATM Zone 4 by location, noting that the Warringah Freeway has been excluded from the analysis. The data shows that there were no fatal crashes recorded within LATM Zone 4 between 2011 and 2015.

The crash data summary presented below in Table 3.3 shows:

a total of 76 crashes were reported within the five-year period (2011-2015), at an average rate of 15 crashes a year within LATM Zone 4;

around 30% of tow-away crashes occurred during wet road conditions; out of all reported crashes, seven involved pedestrians. 50% of the crashes were recorded along Miller Street; 57% of the crashes reported involved casualties; 23% of crashes occurred during PM commuter traffic (4pm-7pm); and 34% of crashes occurred on the weekend.

Table 3.3: Crash Severity Summary (2011-2015)

Severity Total Crashes Wet Condition Pedestrian

Tow-away 33 30% 0

Injury 43 7% 7

Fatal 0 - 0

Total 76 - 7

The majority of recorded crashes occurred in and around intersections. Of the seven crashes involving pedestrians, four involved a right turning vehicle.

Based on the crash data, key locations in LATM Zone 4 are the intersections of Abbott Street / Palmer Street (Council-controlled), Miller Street / Abbott Street (state-controlled), Miller Street / Palmer Street (state-controlled), and Miller Street / The Boulevarde (state-controlled).

The intersection of Abbott Street / Palmer Street has eight recorded crashes between 2011 and 2015. Five of these crashes were recorded as ‘thru-thru’ crash types. Three of the ‘thru-thru’ crashes involved northbound and eastbound travelling vehicles.

The intersection of Miller Street / Palmer Street has thirteen recorded crashes between 2011 and 2015. Seven out of the thirteen crashes occurred during turning movements, with the remaining being rear-end crashes. 50% of these crashes occurred during the weekend period. Two of the crashes involved a pedestrian. It is noted that this trend of crashes is further substantiated by public consultation feedback about requests for improved intersection safety. As a further note, a site inspection identified that tertiary signal lanterns have not been installed on the eastern and western intersection legs, and sight distances to oncoming vehicles for eastbound and westbound right turning vehicles (uncontrolled filter right turns) is very limited due to topography.

The intersection of Miller Street / Abbott Street, and nearby approaches had six crashes between 2011 and 2015 with five of these crashes occurring at night. Two of the crashes involved a pedestrian. Several public feedback submissions also raise concern over intersection safety.

The intersection of Miller Street / The Boulevarde and approaches recorded eight crashes between 2011 and 2015. Five of the crashes involved vehicles leaving the road on the curve on Miller Street. This location’s crashes correlate with public consultation feedback, raising concerns over traffic calming and intersection safety.

3.4 PublicTransportNetwork

3.4.1 BusRoutesandBusStops

Bus services run along Miller Street, Amherst Street, and Carter Street which cater for passengers from the north of Sydney, through LATM Zone 4, to the neighbouring LGAs and on to the CBD. Miller Street is a key route through this area with bus stops located at regular intervals. Eleven local bus routes operate through the study area. A map of the bus routes are shown in Figure 3.8.

3.5 WalkingNetwork

North Sydney Council has provided a walking network throughout LATM 4 which allows pedestrians to access various public transport facilities as well as historic sites. North Sydney Council is working to improve pedestrian accessibility and make North Sydney more ‘walkable’. The Community Strategic Plan identified needs for improvements for pedestrian safety and sustainable transport. Further, pedestrian and cycle paths produced some of the highest dissatisfaction ratings amongst services for residents based on public feedback. Any traffic and parking strategies proposed as part of this study will consider the impacts to pedestrians.

3.6 CyclingNetwork

A collaboration between Northern Sydney Councils produced a map of proposed or recommended cycling routes throughout the study area, North Sydney LGA and neighbouring LGAs of northern Sydney. An extract of the routes within the study area is shown in Figure 3.9.

Source: Northern Sydney Cycling Map (2012)

Figure 3.9: Existing Cycle Routes

A large majority of bike routes located in LATM Zone 4 are both marked and un-marked on-road routes, with a short section of off-road cycling facility through Cammeray Golf Course to the south. This is primarily due to road section and topographic constraints placing heavy reliance on on-road cycling facilities.

Key on-road marked bicycle routes connect Palmer Street to Miller Street and Pine Street, to Carter Street, to Cammeray Road and joining the off-road facility through Cammeray Golf Course connecting to Ernest Street. Other routes are aligned westward from Strathallen Avenue, following the northern fringe around to Cammeray Road, re-joining the other route or diverting eastward towards Cremorne via Grafton Street.

Some sections of the cycling route have been identified as steep/difficult grades for cyclists, particularly both northern and southern approaches to Carter Street, Palmer Street and Hamilton Lane west of West Street.

Miller Street is not recommended as an on-road cycle route due to heavy traffic volumes reducing the safety and appeal of cycling (i.e. rider comfort). Alternate routes are provided to North Sydney and beyond.

3.7 ParkingDemands

On-street parking within North Sydney Council is split into 33 residential parking areas located across the LGA. LATM Zone 4 comprises three areas as shown in Figure 3.10 and listed below:

Area 18; Area 20; and Area 25.

The North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy designated each of the 33 residential parking areas into three categories, which are described as follows:

High Demand; Medium Demand; and Low Demand.

The majority of LATM Zone 4 has a “Low Demand” category for parking in Areas 18 and 25. Only a portion of Area 20 is within the LATM 4 boundary, which is categorised as “High Demand”. Sites which generate trups and contribute to the demand for parking in LATM Zone 4 include local shops and restaurants along Miller Street, Cammeray Public School, North Leagues Club, bus stops servicing bus routes to and from the City, and residential properties.

The supply of parking also correlates with traffic generation. Walking, cycling, and public transport require significantly less destination parking than driving. Applying appropriate parking controls to the finite parking supply discourages car-based trips whilst enabling adequate turnover of the existing parking spaces so that those who do need to drive can actually find a parking space when they arrive. North Sydney Council implements a number of parking restrictions including timed parking throughout the area in order to manage the parking.

3.8 PublicConsultationData

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 LATM Zone 4 as raised by the public. 

For LATM Zone 4, Council received 595 submissions from 383 respondents. Of those submissions there 

were 758 specific traffic and transport related issues raised. Of those issues 36% were related to 

parking, 32% were related to traffic generally, 10% were related to cycling, 9% were related to walking, 

and 9% were related to buses. The remaining 4% of issues were related to public transport, specific 

developments and events. 

Figure 3. 11: Summary of Issues raised during Public Consultation – LATM Zone 4

While the dataset was filtered by consultants, KJA using predefined themes, the data required further processing to identify key trends in issues and suggestions for further investigation. A broad set of issue descriptors was defined and assigned to each data entry to narrow-down the data and establish focus areas. The descriptors are detailed in Table 3.4.

3.9 KeyDevelopments/TrafficGenerators

3.9.1 TravelPatterns(JTW)

The Cammeray Journey to Work (JTW) travel patterns were assessed to evaluate mode share and travel trends for LATM Zone 4. The JTW data is split into individual travel zones which can be selected to evaluate travel trends in a specific area. The area of assessment is shown in Figure 3.14. It must be noted this data represents trips which originate and end in Cammeray and does not consider trips which pass through Cammeray.

Source: BTS JTW Explorer Interactive Map

Figure 3.14: Journey to Work Assessment Area

The travel patterns for residents in Cammeray taken from the year 2011 “Journey to Work” (JTW) data (published by the Bureau of Transport Statistics and ABS) shows:

2,950 workers lived in Cammeray, with 1,450 travelling to Cammeray for work; the majority (35%) of JTW trips have a destination in the CBD; 29% of JTW trips remain within the North Sydney-Mosman area; 13% of JTW trips are towards the Chatswood-Lane Cove area; and the majority (45%) of workers within Cammeray travel from North Sydney/ Mosman with a further 12%

workers travelling from Chatswood/Lane Cove.

More than half of trips (54%) from the study area are made by cars (as vehicle driver or vehicle passengers), see Figure 3.15. Bus travel is the next highest mode share with 28%, followed by walking at 9% and train travel with 5% of the mode share. Less than 4% of trips were made by bicycle.

3.9.2 KeyTripGenerators

North Sydney Council defined key trip generators in four categories for the purpose of this study. The categories and the included features are:

Category 1 – Education; - Primary School; - High School; and - University/Tertiary Education.

Category 2 – Health and Care; - Retirement Village; - Aged Care Facility; and - Hospital.

Category 3 – Parks; - Major Parks; and - Minor Parks.

Category 4 – Shopping; - Major Shopping; and - Minor Shopping.

Key pedestrian trip generators are located adjacent to Miller Street, with commercial centres, car parking, high residential developments, and a school. There are also two parks towards the eastern section of the study area and one major shopping precinct.

Important trip generators are shown in Figure 3.17.

3.9.3 DevelopmentTrafficOverlayAnalysis

A review of known developments either under consideration or approved between 2001 and January 2017 was undertaken. It should be noted that subsequent developments have not been considered as part of this review, however impact assessments are undertaken for individual DAs during the development application stage. A total of 45 development proposals have been approved for LATM Zone 4, comprising the following land uses:

Dwelling House; Multi-Dwelling House; and Residential Flat Buildings.

A total of 342 new dwellings have been approved in LATM Zone 4 with a maximum of 46 dwellings approved in a single location at 450-476 Miller Street and 11 Amherst Street, Cammeray. Table 3.6 shows the estimated parking and traffic generation per development type as per North Sydney’s Development Control Plan (DCP) (2013) and the RMS Guide to Traffic Generating Developments (2002). It is important to note that detailed analysis and modelling was not possible as the respective Traffic Impact Assessments for each development were not made available by Council; however, this analysis is expected to have been completed as part of the Development Application process.

Within LATM Zone 4 only a single cluster of developments can be found along Miller Street between Palmer Street and Amherst Street, with the highest parking rate between 41-50 spaces required for a single development. It is expected that these parking facilities will be provided within the development for residents and that any overspill will be accommodated with local on street parking, which should be readily available due to the “Low Demand” area in which the developments are located. The remaining developments are not expected to result in any substantial impact on parking demand due to their low-scale and dispersed nature, as seen in Figure 3.18.

The traffic generation from the cluster of developments along Miller Street between Palmer Street and Amherst Street have an estimated maximum traffic generation in the order of 21-30 trips per peak hour. The developments connect to Miller Street, which is classified as a “State Road”, and serves as a through traffic carrying function for the area. The remaining developments are anticipated to have minimum impact on the local road network as it is expected that the developments will either be replacing existing dwellings of similar size or, as seen in Figure 3.19, are only small traffic generators and are unlikely to have an adverse effect on the capacity of the surrounding local roads.

3.9.4 IssuesandNeedsSummary

The proposed developments reviewed in this study are not expected to have a substantial impact on the local traffic management schemes.

3.10 StateGovernmentProjects

There are no major New South Wales Government projects within LATM Zone 4. Crows Nest, located within LATM Zone 2, has a planned new station as part of the Sydney Metro project, and is approximately 1km from Miller Street in LATM Zone 4. It is likely that there will be new bus service which will connect to the Crows Nest Metro Station; however, no detailed information is available at the time of writing this report.

4. Council’sCurrentTrafficActions

4.1 SectionOutline

This section identifies and summarises details of Council’s current list of traffic actions for LATM Zone 4.

4.2 SummaryofCouncil’sTrafficActions

In past years, Council has maintained a list of traffic facilities projects awaiting further approval and/or funding. As these projects have previously been identified through community engagement or Council resolutions it is appropriate that they are considered and incorporated into the LATM Action Plans where they are still relevant. Table 4.1 summarises the details of Council’s current list of traffic actions for LATM Zone 7. Each action has been assigned a unique identification for ease of reference and will be subject to Council’s scoring system detailed in Section 7.

5. DetailedDataAnalysis

5.1 SectionOutline

Section 3 broadly summarised the crash data, traffic speed data, traffic volume data and public feedback data for LATM Zone 4. This section analyses these four key datasets in finer detail to narrow-down focus areas and associated traffic and parking issues within LATM Zone 4 that have not already been identified by Council. The detailed analysis culminates in a list of defined issues by location to be investigated and diagnosed at a fundamental level such that fit for purpose remedial solutions can be developed and scored. The proposed solutions are intended to supplement Council’s current list of actions.

5.2 CrashData

Crash data is based on the reported crashes and details characteristics about the crash type, location, speed, severity and a range of factors which can cause crashes including weather, time of day, time of year and influence of alcohol.

As previously identified in Section 3, key crash locations in LATM Zone 4 are the intersections of Abbott Street / Palmer Street (Council-controlled), Miller Street / Abbott Street (state-controlled), Miller Street / Palmer Street (state-controlled), and Miller Street / The Boulevarde (state-controlled). Detailed assessment of the crash data for the key intersections has been undertaken to identify key trends.

Crash clusters were categorised based on crash type at each location to identify trends, namely by recurrence of same crash types. Where a majority or relatively significant quantity of crashes (i.e. more than three of the same crash types over the five-year period) are recorded at one location and are similar in nature (i.e. same DCA code, or DCA code series) it can highlight a deficiency in road design, intersection operation or local area traffic management (LATM). By identifying any specific trends and understanding possible contributing factors, a solution to treat the specific crash types can be devised. It is important to note that the state-controlled intersections will not be investigated in detail to devise a solution or scored. Instead, these intersections will be identified as an interface for discussions with Roads and Maritime Services (RMS).

The key crash trends for LATM Zone 4 are summarised in Table 5.1.

Table 5.1: Detailed Crash Trends – LATM Zone 4

Location Crash Type Frequency Vehicle Travel Direction

Abbott Street / Palmer Street DCA Code 101 (thru-thru) 3 North (vehicle 1) / east (vehicle 2)

Miller Street / Abbott Street DCA Code 202 (thru-right) 3 North (vehicle 1) / south (vehicle 2)

Miller Street / Palmer Street DCA Code 301 (rear-end) 3 South (vehicle 1 and 2)

Miller Street / The Boulevarde DCA Code 803 (off right bend into object) 3 South (vehicle 1)

The Miller Street intersections listed in Table 5.1 are state-controlled. These locations have been captured and classified for further action as an RMS interface and are therefore omitted from solution development and scoring.

5.3 TrafficSpeed

Traffic speed data was provided for various locations in the North Sydney LGA by Council for a 20-year period between 1996 and 2015. Only data for the five-year period from 2011 to 2015 was used to ensure data maintained relevant to the existing traffic conditions.

This assessment identified locations where speeds of traffic passing through the survey location were in excessive of the speed limit. The 85th percentile speed was taken as the indicative speed of vehicles and represents the speed that 85% of vehicles do not exceed. All locations where the 85th percentile speed remained below the posted speed limit were not considered for further assessment.

Page 44: P2945.002R North Sydney LATM Action Plan Zone 4 Final · 2018-02-23 · LATM Action Plan Zone 4 North Sydney Council Page ii Contents 1. Introduction 5 1.1 Background 5 2. Link to

LATM Action Plan Zone 4  

North Sydney Council   Page 43  

Locations identified as having an 85th percentile speed exceeding the posted speed were investigated on an individual basis. The characteristics of the roadway, conditions of the road surface, sight distance, adjacent land use and nearby cross roads will be considered when investigating why vehicles were travelling in excess of the posted speed limit regularly and to find a suitable measure to implement to calm traffic and reduce the 85th percentile speed below the posted speed limit.

Two roads were found to have 85th percentile speeds in excess of the posted speed limit, which are summarised in Table 5.2. Maps illustrating the locations are provided in Appendix B.

The North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy (2015) states a desire for all local roads to have a posted speed limit of 40km/h. Instances where the 85th percentile speed exceeded 40km/h are summarised in Table 5.3 and Council notified, however no further analysis was undertaken if the posted speed limit was not exceeded. These sites have been included in the action plan to be investigated and scored separate to this study.

5.4 TrafficVolumes

Council provided traffic volume survey data for the North Sydney LGA for a 20-year period between 1996 and 2015. Data for the five-year period from 2011 to 2015 was used to ensure data remained relevant to the existing traffic conditions.

This assessment identified locations where the AADT exceeded the respective road classification AADT threshold as outlined in the North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy (2015).

5.5 PublicConsultation

The high-level aggregated data (previously mentioned in Section 3) was further processed to identify key trends raised by the public. Clusters of more than ten issues per street was chosen as an initial threshold to ensure only recurring issues were the focus of the investigation.

The streets identified with more than ten issues were analysed in detail by clustering the issue descriptors. Trends emerged from this process and key streets and associated issues became the focus areas for further investigation. The key streets are summarised in Table 5.5.

TransportforNSW

There were 75 issues raised with respect to public transport in LATM Zone 4. 61 (81%) of these responses related to bus services. The most recurring of these requests was the frequency of buses services and timetabling (37%), followed by lack of convenient access to local bus routes (31%). A summary of the issues raised and the raw feedback will be forwarded to Transport for NSW for their attention (Appendix D).

CyclingStrategy

As noted previously, 16% 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 LATM Zone 4 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.

RoadSafetyEducation

There were a small number of submissions (7) concerned with a lack of understanding of the road rules amongst the general community. Council already produces a range of road safety campaigns targeted towards specific road users about key road safety messages which have been developed based on local crash data, collaboration with local Police and the RMS. The feedback received during the LATM consultation phase can also be used to inform and enhance these campaigns. These actions have been included in the LATM Zone 7 Action Plan.

60 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).

144 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 LATM 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 LATM Zone.

6.2.1 SiteObservations

Site audits were undertaken to identify causes of issues at the subject locations. During the site audits, current LATM treatments were identified (where applicable) and assessed for effectiveness. Proposed treatments were developed based on the specific issue identified for the location and the observations documented on site.

Characteristics which were of high importance to the site observations include, but are not limited to:

current LATM treatment; gradient of roadway; pedestrian accessibility and connectivity; sightlines; signage; line marking; and lane width.

6.2.2 ExistingLATMDevices

Photographs were taken and observations documented to assist in determining the proposed treatments at each site, and to ensure any solutions proposed weren’t already implemented on-site. . Current LATM devices are detailed in Table 6.4.

7. ProjectScoring–TrafficActions

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).

 

7.1 ExistingConditions(ProblemScore)

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

7.2 CommunityStrategicPlanCriteria

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

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 LATM 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 LATM assessment have been used to produce the LATM Action Plan which is provided at Appendix C.

8. ParkingReview

8.1 SectionOutline

This section provides a high-level parking review for LATM Zone 4 due to the absence of comprehensive parking data.

8.2 ParkingReviewMethodology

At the time of preparing the LATM 4 Action Plan, comprehensive parking occupancy data was not available for all streets in the LATM 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. For the purposes of this report, sample parking occupancy surveys have been undertaken in collaboration with Council and based on community feedback data. The purpose of this process is to identify key roads that need to be prioritised for detailed surveys and assessment. However, it is recommended that an ongoing schedule of parking surveys across all streets in each LATM Zone be undertaken to ensure parking can be pro-actively managed across each LATM Zone.

The results for each sample of the LATM areas were represented in tables, with the main focus on the occupancy percentage for each street that was identified in the survey samples. North Sydney Council Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy (2015) provides a LATM Parking Principles Plan (Warrants) table which identifies the occupancy percentage thresholds and actions required (refer Figure 8.1). Where the parking occupancy percentage exceeds 85% for multiple time periods, further analysis will be recommended as a high priority. If any of the streets exceed 85% for only one time period, further analysis will still be recommended; however, it is treated as a lower priority.

Source: Table 7.6 – North Sydney Integrated Traffic and Parking Strategy (2016)

Figure 8.1: LATM Parking Principles Plan (Warrants)

The limitations involved with this survey process were largely related to time constraints. As a result, and with limited on-street car parking data received from Council. The limiting factors include:

using google maps to calculate on-street car parking provision; and work zones not providing accurate representation of occupancy percentage.

8.3 KeyFindings

As noted in Section 3.8, parking-related issues made up 36% of the feedback from the community in LATM Zone 7. Furthermore, 75% of that feedback was that either parking restrictions were either too

Aside from Palmer Street and Miller Street recording an occupancy of greater than 85% in one time period each, the average occupancy for all streets assessed ranges between 52%-67%. The survey samples indicate that the on-street parking for these streets requires regular monitoring as per the direction in Figure 8.1.

8.4 LATMAction‐Parking

It is recommended that an LGA-wide parking study is undertaken with detailed parking surveys. This would provide a complete data set necessary to determine informed parking actions, such as monitoring frequency and modifications to existing restrictions.

In addition to the above, it is recommended that an ongoing schedule of parking surveys across all streets in LATM Zone 4 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.

9. ApprovalsProcesses

9.1 ProcessOutline

The approvals process for the LATM actions involved several different steps to be approved for final recommendations. The steps were:

1. Draft LATM Action Plans submitted to Council for endorsement to place on public exhibition;

2. Draft LATM Action Plans placed on public exhibition for a minimum of 28 days;

3. Feedback from Steps 1-3 incorporated into LATM Action Plans;

4. Final LATM Action Plans submitted to Council for adoption;

5. 5-10 year program of works developed from LATM Action Plans;

6. Ongoing review of LATM 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 LATM assessment criteria.

10. Summary

In order to gain a detailed understanding of the traffic and parking requirements and needs across the North Sydney LGA, investigations have been carried out under the Local Area Traffic Management Action Plans (LATM) program. The LGA of North Sydney was divided into seven LATM zone; this report has considered LATM Zone 4.

The key traffic and parking actions are summarised in the following subsections. Appendix F includes a complete action plan comprising of the traffic and parking actions, maps of action locations and the concept plans for schemes identified by this study.

10.1 TrafficActions

Actions for LATM Zone 4 have been incorporated into a single Action Plan. This incorporates actions that were developed as a result of the review of community consultation and from past traffic facilities programs, and additional actions identified by Bitzios Consulting as part of the detailed technical review. The actions and associated priority are shown in Appendix C.The Action Plan is intended to provide a 10 year program of works for Council. The priority timeframe “Short”, “Medium” or “Long” has been assigned based on relative scoring and 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 planning, investigation and design in the short, medium or long term. 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 through the rigorous assessment and scoring process but overall produced a negative benefit when assessed against Council’s scoring criteria. 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.

10.2 ParkingReviewandActions

In lieu of comprehensive parking occupancy data, the focus area for the parking review and sample parking occupancy surveys was primarily based on collaboration with Council, as well as public feedback data. The extent of the parking surveys undertaken in LATM Zone 4 was largely based on the proximity to commercial streets and public feedback received in the area. Through this process, several streets were selected in LATM Zone 7 and treated as a sample due to project time constraints.

There were 9 parking related actions listed in the Action Plan for LATM Zone 4 The actions and associated priority are shown in Appendix C.

It is recommended that an ongoing schedule of parking surveys across all streets in LATM Zone 4 be undertaken to ensure parking can be pro-actively managed.

C.6  Bridgeview Avenue 

There are a ridiculous number of cycle signs in the whole of the North Sydney area. Just at the end of Bridgeview Avenue in Cammeray there are multiple signs (a new post has even been erected!) which all show directions to North Sydney or Naremburn only. I cannot believe that cyclists are that dense that they need that many signs. (There is even a sign outside our house ‐ halfway down the street which is surely redundant). The cost of these signs, their erection and the visual pollution is unnecessary, to say the least. Car drivers need signs (their speed warrants clear directions). Surely cyclists can use satnav or, at the very least, consult the phone or a map by stopping at the side of the road. When I cycled I usually had a good idea of where I was heading!   There are at least 10 signs for cyclists at the end of Bridgeview Avenue and all they indicate is North Sydney and/or Naremburn. As well as being unsightly, they are surely unnecessary as cyclists can easily refer to maps or SATNAV while pulling in to the kerb. Why the expense and proliferation of these futile signs? It is a dreadfully unnecessary waste of money. 

Cycling Strategy 

Conduct signage review as set out in busy areas as identified in 2014 Cycling Strategy  Use pavement markings for bike route directions rather than signage. Remove existing signs where pavement markings are installed. 

Signage review has commenced.

C.8  Hamilton Lane 

Hamilton Lane ‐ This is a marked cyclist Routes it is very popular, however at present there are no parking restrictions along a big section of Hamilton Lane.  Due to increasing number of residents in this cul‐de‐sac, cars are now being parked along H/Lane, creating a one way street.  As a resident, I am unable to drive down or up without quite often having to give way to another car or cyclists.  I am aware of the problem but other people are not.Chatswood connectivity as above.Parked cars along cycle pathI had a rather serious cycling accident  n October 2014 in Hamilton Lane, Cammeray. I was riding around a tight left hand blind corner when a red P plater came in the oppose direction on my side of the road. I managed to avoid the car riding over me but went over the handlebars and landed on the top of my head (thank goodness for the helmet). I broke my neck in 2 places (C1 and C2 Type lll ‐ the “hangman’s fracture”) and my back in 4 places. A C2 Type lll fracture means the 90% of victims either die or are quadriplegics so I was very lucky. My skull and brain were undamaged. I also dissected my right vertebral artery and developed a 4cms clot which completely stopped the flow of blood. I was in hospital for 3 weeks and in a halo brace for another 7 weeks. I am still not fully recovered. The problem is that the North Sydney Council's proposed solution after 17 months (!) is paint and signs. This will not work. Mountable median strips around the bend and speed humps are essential. Perhaps you could apply some pressure since this is North Sydney Council's busiest cycle route (they say this, not me).

P.1  General  We would like to reduce the amount of commuter parking in our street as we cannot find parking on our own street for more than two hours and from time to time receive parking fines for overstaying the two hours by a minimal amount or for parking slightly over the driveway ‐ which we have done to unload groceries etc because we can't park outside our own house.  I know of other councils that supply one free parking permit per household in congested areas and I feel extremely frustrated that after paying a fortune in rates each year, we are then expected to pay to park outside our own homes.  My suggestion is to provide the option of a free resident parking permit per house and reduce the parking time limits to avoid commuters.  I also do not agree with the proposed expansion of the zones as i note some of the regular commuter parking is taken by people living within North Sydney council, just not near our particular bus stop.  When you pay a extra money for your house to be closer to these amenities, i feel it only fair that you  should be able to access them.  I also know someone who puts his kayak in at Clontarf carpark and he gets an electronic tag that allows him to access carparks in his LCA. At least give us 1 free carpark sticker (with minimum 4 hours usage) and put meters on Tunks Park carpark allowing rate payers in our area to enjoy our nearest assets and others from elsewhere if they choose to can pay at least a nominal fee. Can something be done to improve access to Tunks Park Carpark particularly and probably our other popular carparks for local ratepayers.Photos: depicts boats/trailers left parked in Tunks Park carpark and contributing to parking issues at that location. Photos taken 29.2.16.Tunks Park Carpark has next to no weekend parking. My No.1 hobby and fitness activity is recreational kayaking and have been trying to do so from that boatramp for 5+ years but that carpark keeps getting busier by the week to the point where kayaking (for me) from that location is almost impossible as weekdays I'm busy and on weekends it's just chaos, not able to find a park in the carpark or even the nearby streets on any weekend. There is limited car parking spaces there but at present and for several months there is one catamaran on trailer and another boat trailer parked permanently in 2 car spaces. There are bootcamp businesses, mass dog walking business and other businesses using the area for payment ‐ mainly on weekdays and on weekends you have boats, buses, people playing cricket and soccer, people exercising their dogs and/or themselves, sightseers and tons of boaties etc. all trying to access this limited resource. I believe I live in the ward that covers Cammeray and the Tunks Park Carpark and I pay my rates and can't access the area for my kayaking due to it being hogged by blow‐ins from all over Sydney and elsewhere eg spoken to boaties from SW Sydney hogging the tap to hose their entire boat and engine after being out on the harbour for half the day, spoke to a business guy from Melbourne who has large boats in popular locations all over the country and has a large catamaran moored off North Cremorne and they park there for the free parking regularly and for weeks at a time. Something needs to be done for the residents of this council area as if I go to another boatramp carpark, scenic, harbour or water side carpark anywhere else in Sydney I have to pay parking meters to park my car eg all Pittwater carparks, Clontarf, the carparks in the Spit and Roseville bridge carpark. They are coming from all around, laughing as Tunks is the only free and unlimited time harbourside parking. In Pittwater rate payers are give 2 free access to carparks stickers once per year on their rate notices. Residents don’t want timed parking but it was put there without giving residents free permits ‐ this permit should be for a wider area, why is it illegal for visitors to park in drive way, have to do U‐turn when looking for parkingCambridge St, Cammeray ‐ 2 hour limit on parking but too hard for residents to get permit4. Regarding the proposed boat trailer parking changes, I would like to see an exception for residents who should be allowed to park boat trailers outside their own homes, however, I agree that boat trailers should not be permitted to be parked for long periods of time outside other people's homes. It would be great if significant boat trailer parking is also provided near marinas, although

this should not be instead of permitting residents to park their boats outside of their own homes. The current proposed changes would essentially only permit residents to own a boat if they have garaging facilities for cars and boats, which is unfair, considering this is generally not available for most people in the area and would significantly reduce access to water leisure activities for many people. Boat housing at a marina is very expensive and prohibitive for many.Miller Street ‐ where I live ‐ parking is a real issue. I unfortunately do not have off street parking with my building so have to park in the street and even though a lot of people around have off‐street parking ‐ they still prefer to park on the streetTimed parking means people don’t park there and residence cant take longer term spots taken by commuters and 4 hours is necessary for visitors as it would prevent commuters parking. Should have 2 parking permits per household.All Nth Sydney ‐ why can't residents have free parking for 2 hrs as they have in Warringah Council!Armstrong St, Cammeray ‐ when parking restrictions were introduced, council gave preference to unit dwellers who have off street parking at the expense of residents in houses before the advent of the car (and garage). Otherwise no complaints. Timed parking in some residential streets of Cammeray was done despite the survey by the Plateau Precinct which opposed this timed parking and requested that if council adopted this policy all households should have at least one free parking permit per household. 

P.2  The Boulevarde 

The Boulevarde, Cammeray ‐ Too much on street parking, restricts access to our property.  Tunks Park ‐ High level use, especially on weekends, creates severe traffic problems, creates severe traffic problems in the area. Suggest residents' parking Permits and parking on one side of the Boulevarde only  Blind corner: At the crest of the  Boulevarde ( opposite 24‐26 ) is a blind corner because of cars parked on both sides. Can one side of this street opposite or next to 24‐26 the Boulvearde be a "No Parking" zone, so there is an opportunity for vehicles to see what's coming or give way without having to reverse into someone's drive way or 50 plus metres?  2. Combined bend and hump in the Boulevarde 100m from Miller Street Both bend and up severely restrict vision between oncoming vehicles… difficult to avoid a head‐on collision. Locals who are aware of this hazard usully reduce to maximum of 25km/h but visitors to Tunks Park using this road have reached speeds well over 50km/h particular if turning downhill from Miller St. A number of cars have been side‐swipted and one motorbike written off when driveway have chosen to hit parked vehicles rather than the oncoming one. AT night problem is reduced because headlight reflections give advanced notice. It either needs a speed bump with advanced warning markings, or no parking on one side of the road in that section, so that vehicles can avoid each other head on.  4. Boat trailers. Non locals park their boat trailers in The Boulevarde and the wheel width of most of these esceeds that of a standard car making them an additional hazard on such a narrow road. In some cases the road has become impassable, especially to other vehicles with boats. This situation needs to be addressed.  Parking both sides of The Boulevarde has caused many accidents,we believe that there should be parking only on the Northern side of The Boulevarde and not within three meters of a driveway access

T.2b  Tunks Park ‐ access streets 

Saturday morning congestion and emergency vehicle access: During the winter months, particularly on Saturday mornings, there is gridlock and congestion on roads travelling toward Tunks Park, and parking is near impossible as is access out of residents' driveways. This is particularly bad in the Boulevarde but extends through Rowlison Parade, Currawang St, Pine St East, Alan St, and on the other side of Tunks Parks, Lower Cliff avenue.Can the Traffic Committee which includes representatives form the Police Local area command and the RTA please send someone down and put traffic measuring devices back onto the Boulevarde  to assess this issue and either provide personnel to manage the congestion or come up with a viable solution? Right now, if a child is injured in Tunks Park, on a Saturday morning, there would be no vehicular access for any emergency vehicles. And local residents should be able to exit their homes without adding to the congestion. Please advise what Council or the Traffic committee are going to do to attend to this issue ?Shocking issues with parking and traffic flow along The Boulevard and Rowlison Parade when sport is on at Tunks Park.The Residential side of Rowlison Parade needs to be made 'No Stopping' to prevent traffic clogs Parking on Saturday and Sunday mornings along roads leading to Tunks Park is atrocious. I have called council rangers on three occasions to report cars parked on Saturday mornings in the 'No Stopping' zone (on a blind corner with double lines I might add) outside my house in the past month and no one has attended. Cars also park on the footpath meaning children as young as 6 have to walk on the road, dodging traffic, to reach the playing fields. Traffic blockages occur regularly every Saturday from 8am through 1pm along Rowlison Parade and The Boulevard leading one resident from the Boulevard to get out of her car and direct traffic last Saturday morning due to a blockage which involved at least 18 cars so she could reach her house.I have teenage sons who play sport and worry about the lack of access for emergency vehicles in the event of an accident. Each year it would seem that the problem gets worse. If a resident leaves their parking spot in the street outside their home on a Saturday they would have to wait until after 1pm to have any hope of reparking. In my opinion, it is only a matter of time before a serious accident occurs and when this happens I don't know how emergency vehicles will be able to get through.The Boulevard, Cammeray ‐ traffic, particularly on Saturdays. As a resident whose home surrounds Tunks Park on the Willoughby side, I feel the need to complain about the traffic and parking chaos that happens every Saturday and Sunday (sports days).  During school sports I cannot even reverse out of my garage due to hundreds of cars trying to exit and arrive at Tunks Park. The Boulevarde in Cammeray and Lower Cliff Avenue and Willoughby are severely effected by this traffic.   Add to this boat users trying to access the jetty and you really have an unsafe and frustrating chain of events.  If an ambulance was required either by a park user or resident of these streets, I can pretty much say that they would not be able to get to their destination.  Photos are available if required.Parking for sport in and around Tunks Park on Saturdays is also difficult. Access along streets both North and South of Tunks park is greatly affected. On some occasions it can take 20 minutes to get out of a traffic jam along The Boulevarde as cars of kids, car with boats on trailers, trucks etc all build up and try to manoeuvre and reverse through the narrow streets and parked cars. I have seen numerous accidents with cars colliding or the scraping of parked cars along here as there is often not enough room for passing. I am not sure how this can be solved as kids sport down there is a fantastic activity. We are fortunate we have an alternative access but it must be difficult if you live along any of these streets.I would like to comment on traffic congestion and parking around Tunks Park. I live in Cammeray and often use (or try to use) Tunks Park for exercise for myself, my young kids and my dog. When Tunks Park is utilised by sporting groups, we are prevented from using it because we can't park anywhere near it. Weekend mornings are particularly bad. At 10am on Saturday 7 May 2016, for example, there were no available parks from Stratford Street in Cammeray, through Tunks 

Traffic Facilities & Investigations 

Prepare Green Travel Plan and Traffic Management Plan for Tunks Park and various sporting groups to reduce travel by private vehicles and minimise traffic and parking impacts of private vehicle trips.

Park and all the way up to Strathallen Avenue in Northbridge. There was also gridlock in Lower Cliff Avenue Northbridge. I appreciate that this street is not in the North Sydney LGA, but the gridlock was caused by sporting groups using Tunks Park, so I believe that it is of concern to the North Sydney Council. The gridlock extended along the entire length of Lower Cliff Avenue. I was stuck motionless in the gridlock for 10 minutes and a driver who was attempting to drive the other way informed me that he had been stuck for 20 minutes. No residents of Lower Cliff Avenue were able to get cars into or out of their houses. The gridlock was only resolved when around 6 cars coming down Lower Cliff Avenue reversed their cars all the way out of the street. Had a boat‐with‐trailer been part of this mix then the gridlock would have taken even longer to resolve. I am deeply concerned that Council's plans to install floodlighting in Tunks Park will make this traffic congestion a daily occurrence in both Cammeray and Northbridge. We have narrow streets and very limited parking and the traffic congestion already overwhelms our area. We are Cammeray residents but are effectively prevented from using Tunks Park because of the traffic congestion and parking problems. Thank you for your consideration of this submission. Please save Tunks Park from its obvious overuse.

T.16a  The Boulevarde 

Parking at Tunks Park.Parking at Tunks Park is generally adequate for the current use of facilities and should not be expanded. The facilities are relatively balanced between nature reserve, organised sport and simple community free play and recreational use. Any further "industrialisation" or commercialisation in this sensitive environment would be a big burden on residents and local fauna and flora. There is no scope for additional vehicular traffic on the narrow suburban streets ‐ they are already choked at peak sporting times.  Access is very restricted and can not be expanded. Public transport is non existent and could never be cost effective in this location. Even commuting by bike or foot is only for the very fittest elite because of the long steep climbs involved back to Strathallen. The main issue for Tunks is vehicular safety at the intersections with Strathallen particularly the southern intersection. A roundabout at the southern end of the stone bridge would have a traffic calming effect and offer north and south passage without the stop start impact of lights, especially in peak hour, and this is what I strongly advocate.Speed limits painted on road: The Boulevarde is a busy throughfare for vehicles and is basically a single lane road with obstructed vision because vehicles are parked on both sides of the road. Often cars travel too quickly on this road and there are no opportunities for passing oncoming traffic other than reversing into a driveway or reversing many metres to allow oncoming traffic to proceed. It would be helpful if signs were painted  on the road with "Slow down" 40km area at the intersection of the Boulevarde ann the Bridge and perhaps at the junction down to Tunks park from Rowlison Parade? Please advise if anything will be done re speed limits or signposting / road painting 3. No. 28 The Boulevarde ‐ both exits ‐ view of oncoming traffic blocked due to parked vehicles. The Bouelvarde is favoured by cyclists. The exiting driver has no choice but to nose out blind. Because cyclists hug the left side heading east they cannot be seen until about a second before collision. There are 2 spots between the 2 exits, yet up to four residents now park in the streets in preference to using their own garages due to the exit hazards. We request that those two parking spots be removed and the two eastern and western most boundary markes be extended another 2 metres or more, particularly if cyclists are not to be hit. Across the road there is a single parking spot between No.s 39A & 41. This, if occupied prevents is from turning on to the narrow road by severely restricting our radius of turn. It also blocks any escape route for an oncoming vehicle about to hit a car exiting blind. This parking spot urgently needs to be removed.In The Boulevarde ‐ Cars travelling east from Miller often pick up speed down hill narrowly missing cars exiting driveways that have no visibility of cars come down the street. Cars have been damaged. With ever increasing traffic the above situation will be compounded.2. Combined bend and hump in the Boulevarde 100m from Miller StreetBoth bend and up severely restrict vision between oncoming vehicles… difficult to avoid a head‐on collision. Locals who are aware of this hazard usully reduce to maximum of 25km/h but visitors to Tunks Park using this road have reached speeds well over 50km/h particular if turning downhill from Miller St. A number of cars have been side‐swipted and one motorbike written off when driveway have chosen to hit parked vehicles rather than the oncoming one. AT night problem is reduced because headlight reflections give advanced notice. It either needs a speed bump with advanced warning markings, or no parking on one side of the road in that section, so that vehicles can avoid each other head on.Parking both sides of The Boulevarde has caused many accidents,we believe that there should beparking only on the Northern side of The Boulevarde and not within three meters of a drivewayaccess

T.66  Bellevue Street at Lumsden Street and Raleigh Street 

I am extremely concerned about the Pedstrian Traffic Island on the corner of Lumsden, Bellevue and Raeiligh Streets. Currently the metal poles at one end of the traffic island have been bent over by  impact. They are currently lying across the Pram Ramp crossing direction. I have seen a child in the last three days trip on the edge of this metal and stumble across the road. Imagine if a car had been passing at that time!  This is about the 10th time this traffic island pole has been bent over through vehicle impact since we purchased the property on the corner of Bellevue and Lumsden. It is clearly a very inappropriate place to have a pedestrian crossing.  I specifically note that the traffic island has not been impacted on by any vehicle entering or leaving 91 Bellevue Street since we commenced our construction.   I also note that there has been numerous times when either my builder or myself have warned children against crossing the road, and have directed the children to move back from the edge of the road as a State Transit bus has approached the bottle neck that is caused by the existence of the traffic island where it is placed. The existence of a traffic island gives children the false sense of security and encourages them to cross in front of traffic ‐ despite the traffic island clearly being more of a target for vehicles than a safety feature for the many children that access Cammeray Public School and buses on Miller Street.  It is also unsafe to expect a child to stand on Bellevue Street and, while looking right and left, to also look behind them to see if any car is turning across Bellevue Street from either Lumsden or Raeligh Street. Children do not think to look behind them and there have been many near misses as cars pull out onto Bellevue Street from Lumsden having checked left but not looked to see if a child is darting across the raod through the traffic island. It is an incredibly unsafe crossing for children. I do not believe this crossing should exist where it is, in any form. If another crossing is needed then this should be moved further up or down the road, but please do move it. I fear the day when a vehicle hits not only the traffic island, but also a child.

additional traffic matter to identify.  This relates to 

the right hand turn bay at the intersection of Miller 

Street and Amherst Street.  This is currently a 

through traffic light only.  In peak hours, there can be 

delays in proceeding through this light.  A right hand 

turn light and rephrasing of the traffic lights here 

may improve the through flow of this intersection".

Online Submission  22 Cars parked on Miller St city bound opposite Vale St 

near Cammeray Public School, particularly during the 

afternoon school pick up time, are causing 

congestion to traffic coming from the Northbridge 

direction. Vehicles turning right into Vale St often 

have to wait for the Miller/Palmer Sts lights to 

change before they can turn. This can take up to 50 

seconds & causes a build up of traffic back to the 

Long Gully bridge. It is particularly frustrating for bus 

drivers. I suggest the area from the bus stop up to &

Online Submission  127 There is extensive traffic backup east from Miller 

Street down Amherst Street at many times of the

also Palmer) Street onto Miller Street ‐ especially 

around school drop off/pick up and Saturdays. A turn

outside Stocklands is a nightmare. Cars heading both 

east and west on Amherst  attempting to turn right

hour as there is no turning arrow. Likewise cars on 

Miller turning right into Amherst to head east (there 

is a turning lane, why no arrow?) There is an arrow 

for cars turning left onto Miller Street to head south, 

but only to allow pedestrians to cross. These 

pedestrians are often very selfishly slow and cross 

after the red man so often only a few cars get 

through. There have been so many near misses as 

drivers get frustrated having to wait so long. Would 

turn arrows triggered by detector pads alleviate 

some of these issues?

not stopping at red lights and pedestrian Crossings.

I walk from Palmer St across the freeway on‐ramp 

and along Brook St almost everyday. At least every 

second day when crossing the freeway on‐ramp at 

the designated crossing a car (or cars) don't stop at 

the red light, still passing across the pedestrian 

crossing after the green man is lit. I am concerned 

that kids that tend to walk as soon as they see the 

green man will be hit. 

There is a similar problem at the zebra crossing at 

the freeway off‐ramp doing a left turn onto Brook St. 

Many cars do not stop here for pedestrians and I 

have come close to being hit on a few occasions. 

Driver's seem to be reoccupied with watching traffic 

coming from the right, down the hill on Brook St, and 

don't check for pedestrians coming from the other

installed turning left from Amherst into Miller 

heading south this intersection will result in a

to turn right into Amherst street as the oncoming

Petition  56 The situation, regarding parking, in Bridgeview Ave is 

getting worse. Construction workers from the site at 

Vale St and the increase in commuter parking is 

making the access along Bridgeview Ave extremely 

difficult. On at least 4 occasions the garbage 

collection has been disrupted due to the fact that the 

truck cannot get at least half way along the Avenue.

The problem that the Avenue has a couple of dog‐

legs which are impossible for trucks to negotiate 

when vehicles are parked on both sides.

We need some action to alleviate the problem. At 

the very least, a ban on parking on the north side of 

the Avenue for the length of the dog‐legs would 

relieve the situation.

We, the undersigned, would like you to consider the 

urgency of the situation and Fromulate a solution to 

our problem.

Business Activity

...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?

...improve personal security through improved streetscape design, increased street activity and passive surveillance?

...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?

…provide infrastructure that encourages healthy and active lifestyle/travel choices?

...reduce demand for parking and / or provide more equitable access to existing parking supply?

...encourage the use of low greenhouse gas emitting transport options?

...encourage the use of travel modes that have minimal impact on air quality, water quality and noise?

...encourage the use of travel options with lower social, health and economic costs and higher social, health and economic benefits?

...apply travel demand management principles to minimise traffic demand and associated traffic congestion?

...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?
