(a) That a 30m “Bus Zone” be installed on the northern side of Woniora Road, adjacent to No. 274. (b) That a 27m “Bus Zone” be installed on the southern side of Woniora Road, adjacent to No. 277. (c) That a 30m “No Stopping” zone be installed on the northern side of Woniora Road, west of the Princes Highway, as shown on plan TC1939 attached to the report. |
Executive Summary
1. This report seeks the Committee’s consideration of the proposed signage in Woniora Road, Blakehurst.
Background
2. Council has received a request to formalise the existing Bus Stops in Woniora Road near the Princes Highway.
3. Following investigation by Council officers, it was observed that vehicles were parking within the designated distance for a Bus Stop on both the northern and southern side of Woniora Road. This has resulted in buses being unable to safely stop parallel to the kerb, causing a dangerous situation for drivers and bus commuters.
Proposal
4. It is therefore proposed to install a 30m “Bus Zone” on the northern side of Woniora Road and a 27m “Bus Zone” on the southern side of the road. This would formalise NSW Road Rule 195 that already exists in these locations.
5. Furthermore, Council is also proposing the installation of a 30m “No Stopping” zone on the northern side of Woniora Road, east of the intersection with the Princes Highway. This would prevent vehicles parking in this location and improve the traffic flow in the street.
Financial Implications
6. Within budget allocation – RMS Traffic Facility Grant – approximately $1,000.
Community Engagement
7. Community engagement was conducted including: A consultation letter and associated plan on the proposal was hand delivered to the residents. Comments on the proposal were requested by 24 May 2019. No objections were received.

Item: TAC095-19 Boundary Road, Mortdale - Proposed Changes to "No Parking" zone
Author: Coordinator Traffic & Transport
Directorate: Assets and Infrastructure
Matter Type: Agenda Items
That the existing “No Parking, 7am – 6pm, Mon – Sat” zone on the eastern side of Boundary Road, north of Treloar Avenue, be converted to “No Parking, 5am – 9pm, Mon – Sat”, as shown on plan TC1748 attached to the report. |
Executive Summary
1. This report seeks the Committee’s consideration of the changes to the existing “No Parking” zone in Boundary Road, Mortdale.
Background
2. In May 2018, Council received a request to investigate the heavy vehicle access for the industrial premises on the western side of Boundary Road, Mortdale.
3. Upon investigation of this request, Council installed a 24m “No Parking, 7am – 6pm, Mon – Sat” zone on the eastern side of Boundary Road, north of the intersection with Treloar Avenue.
4. Council has recently been advised that heavy vehicles have required access to the driveways opposite the “No Parking” zone outside the times that it operates. As a result, vehicles parked in this location have restricted heavy vehicle access into the premises.
Proposal
5. It is therefore proposed to convert the existing “No Parking, 7am – 6pm, Mon – Sat” zone on the eastern side of Boundary Road, north of Treloar Avenue, to “No Parking, 5am – 9pm, Mon – Sat” as requested. This would improve access to the industrial premises for the heavy vehicles and also reduce the congestion along Boundary Road.
Financial Implications
6. Within budget allocation – RMS Traffic Facility Grant – approximately $100.
Community Engagement
7. Community engagement was conducted including: A consultation letter and associated plan was hand delivered to the nearby residents and businesses on 14 May 2019. Comments on the proposal were requested by 22 May 2019. No objections were received.

Item: TAC096-19 Wonoona Parade West, Oatley - Proposed Sign Changes
Author: Coordinator Traffic & Transport
Directorate: Assets and Infrastructure
Matter Type: Agenda Items
(a) That the “No Stopping” zone on the northern side of Wonoona Parade West, west of Waratah Street, be extended by 12m. (b) That the “No Stopping” zone on the southern side of Wonoona Parade West, west of Waratah Street, be extended by 8m, as shown on plan TC1938 attached to the report. |
Executive Summary
1. This report seeks the Committees’ consideration of the proposed changes at the intersection of Wonoona Parade West and Waratah Street, Oatley.
Background
2. Council has received a request to consider options to improve the safety for drivers using the intersection of Wonoona Parade West and Waratah Street, Oatley.
3. The Roads and Maritime Service’s (RMS) crash database was reviewed between 1 July 2013 and 30 June 2018. There have been 2 recorded crashes during this time with no injuries. The eligibility criteria for the Blackspot Program is a minimum 2 injury crashes over this 5 year period. The data indicates that the location is not eligible for Blackspot Funding.
4. Council has however been advised by local residents that there were 2 crashes that occurred on 20 April 2019 and 29 April 2019.
5. Council has also organised the installation of traffic counters in Wonoona Parade West on both the eastern and western side of the intersection to determine the speed of vehicles approaching the intersection. The table below shows the 85th percentile speed and direction of travel:
Traffic Counter Location |
85th Percentile Speed on approach |
West of Waratah Street |
52 km/h (eastbound) |
East of Waratah Street |
51 km/h (westbound) |
6. The 85th percentile speed is defined as the speed at or below which 85% of all vehicles are observed to travel under free flowing conditions and is a widely used traffic statistical measurement.
7. Wonoona Parade West is classified as a local street and has a speed limit of 50km/h. As can be seen in the results table, the determined 85th percentile speed for each approach to the intersection is within 2 km/h of the posted speed limit.
Proposal
8. Upon investigation of this request, it is proposed to extend the existing “No Stopping” zones on the northern and southern sides of Wonoona Parade West, to the west of Waratah Street, to increase the sight distance along the streets and lead to an improvement of safety in this location.
Financial Implications
9. Within budget allocation – RMS Traffic Facility Grant – approximately $300.
Community Engagement
10. Community engagement was conducted including: A letter and plan was hand delivered to residents in vicinity of the intersection on 1 May 2019. Comments on the proposal were due by 17 May 2019. Council received two responses to the consultation letter.
11. It was recommended to extend the “No Stopping” distance further than proposed as well as limiting the extension to Monday – Friday only that would allow residents to park on weekends in that location. A roundabout was also requested to be installed.
12. The proposed extension of the “No Stopping” zone will exceed the minimum Stopping Sight Distance (SSD) required under the “Austroads Guide to Road Design – Part 3: Geometric Design” document for a 50 km/hr local street. It is determined that further loss of street parking along Wonoona Parade West is not supported.
13. Council is not in support of limiting the “No Stopping” extension to weekdays only as the crash history indicates that 2 of the 4 crashes at the intersection have occurred on a Saturday and therefore would need to be in place on weekends to improve the sight distance along the street.
14. Based on the speed data and crash history, the construction of a roundabout is not warranted at this stage. However the extension of the “No Stopping” zone will greatly improve the sight distance for drivers turning out of Waratah Street.

Item: TAC101-19 Planthurst Road, Carlton - Proposed "1P" zones
Author: Coordinator Traffic & Transport
Directorate: Assets and Infrastructure
Matter Type: Agenda Items
(a) That 15m of the unrestricted parking in Planthurst Road, east of the Council Depot driveway, be converted to “1P, 5am – 7pm Mon – Fri, 5am – 12.30pm Sat”. (b) That 7m of the unrestricted parking in Planthurst Road, west of the Council Depot driveway, be converted to “1P, 5am – 7pm Mon – Fri, 5am – 12.30pm Sat”, as shown on plan TC1946 attached to the report,. |
Executive Summary
1. This report seeks the Committee’s consideration of the proposed “1P” zones in Planthurst Road, Carlton.
Background
2. The Traffic Section has been notified by a representative of the Council’s Carlton Depot that large vehicles, specifically buses, have been parking directly adjacent to the Depot driveway resulting in sight distance issues along Planthurst Road for exiting vehicles. There have been a number of near misses due to the insufficient sight available due to the larger vehicles.
3. Under the NSW Road Rules, heavy vehicles (4.5 tonnes or more GVM) or long vehicles (7.5 metres or longer) must not stop on a length of road in a built up area for longer than one hour (buses excepted).
4. As buses are exempt under the Road Rules from parking unrestricted in untimed parking areas, the buses parking adjacent to the depot driveway are unable to be infringed and they are parking for extended durations when there is high use of the driveway.
Proposal
5. As a result, it is proposed to install a 15m and 7m “1P, 5am – 7pm Mon – Fri, 5am – 12.30pm Sat” zone on the eastern and western side respectively of the depot driveway to ensure that buses do not park longer than 1 hour adjacent to the driveway.
6. Converting these unrestricted parking areas to “1P” will also have a positive outcome for local businesses in the vicinity as it would provide a higher turnover of vehicles and also provide parking opportunities for their customers.
Financial Implications
7. Within budget allocation – RMS Traffic Facility Grant – approximately $100.

Author: Coordinator Traffic & Transport
Directorate: Assets and Infrastructure
Matter Type: Agenda Items
(a) That the report on the traffic investigations in Kingsgrove Road be received and noted. (b) That line marking be installed at the intersections along Kingsgrove Road, as shown on plan TC1945, Sheet 1 and 2 attached to the report. (c) That the statutory 10m “No Stopping” signs be installed in Morris Avenue and the northern side of Moreton Avenue at their intersections with Kingsgrove Road. |
Executive Summary
1. This report seeks the Committee’s consideration of the report into the traffic conditions on Kingsgrove Road, Kingsgrove.
Background
2. At the Council meeting of 25 February 2019, the following Notice of Motion was forwarded by Councillor Badalati in regards to Kingsgrove Road:
“That Council’s Traffic Engineers, in discussion with the Traffic Engineers from Bayside Council, the NSW Roads and Maritime Services and Police, investigate and recommend road safety measures under the NSW Roads and Maritime Services Black Spot Funding Program, to enhance road safety in Kingsgrove Road, Kingsgrove following the most recent tragic accident near Vivienne Street.”
3. The eligibility criteria for the Blackspot Program is a minimum 2 injury crashes over the 5 year period from 1 July 2013 to 30 June 2018. This data is reviewed from the Roads and Maritime Service’s (RMS) crash database.
4. The table below indicates the intersections along Kingsgrove Road and includes the number of injuries that have occurred to determine their eligibility for Blackspot Funding:
INTERSECTION WITH KINGSGROVE ROAD |
INJURIES IN THE 5 YEAR PERIOD |
Mashman Avenue (Signalised) |
0 |
Paterson Avenue (Not Signalised) |
1 |
Morgan Street (Signalised) |
1 |
Moreton Avenue (Not Signalised) |
0 |
Vivienne Street (Not Signalised) |
0 |
Morris Avenue (Not Signalised) |
1 |
Simmons Road (Not Signalised) |
0 |
5. The RMS crash data at the intersections along Kingsgrove Road on the western side indicate that the locations are not eligible for Council to submit a request for funding under the Federal Government Black Spot Program.
6. The intersections along Kingsgrove Road on the eastern side are under the control of Bayside Council.
7. There are a number of intersections along Kingsgrove Road that have streets offset from each other and are not the standard “four way intersection” layout. Due to their configuration and low traffic volumes, they cannot be treated with a roundabout or traffic signals.
8. The offset intersections along Kingsgrove Road have also been analysed by Council using the RMS crash data between 1 July 2013 and 30 June 2018 to determine their Blackspot eligibility.
9. Farrell Road, opposite Simmons Road, recorded one crash with no injuries. No other crashes have been recorded at the staggered intersections.
Proposal
10. Whilst the intersections are not eligible for funding under the Black Spot Program, it has been determined that there is a lack of line marking at the intersections to assist in vehicle turning movements. As a result, it is proposed to install give-way lines and associated signage and centrelines in the streets off Kingsgrove Road to improve traffic movements and safety.
11. Morris Avenue and the northern side of Moreton Avenue also require the installation of the statutory 10m “No Stopping” signs to ensure that vehicles park at an appropriate distance from the corner.
12. It should be noted that the above proposals will not result in the loss of any legal parking spaces in the streets along Kingsgrove Road.
Financial Implications
13. Within budget allocation – RMS Traffic Facilities Grant – approximately $5,000.

d) That all cost associated with the above mentioned changes to Stanley Lane Kogarah be paid for by the developer of 70-78 Regent Street Kogarah.
|
Executive Summary
1. This report seeks the Traffic Committee’s consideration of Deferred Commencement Condition for a Development application at 70-78 Regent Street, Kogarah.
Background
2. The Development Application at 70-78 Regent Street Kogarah was approved by the NSW Land and Environment Court.
3. The proposed development involves the demolition of the five existing dwelling houses on the site and the construction of a new residential apartment building, with three levels of basement car parking. The site will be served by a new entry/exit driveway located off the Stanley Lane site frontage.
4. One of the conditions stipulated by the court is Condition 78A Vehicular Access, stating that a vehicular access (entry and exit) must be provided from Stanley Lane.
5. To that end, the applicant must submit a formal application to Council for its approval for the following interim Traffic Management Measures (TMMs)
a) Installing "No Parking" and/or "No Stopping" restrictions along both sides of Stanley Lane for its full extent from Regent Street to Regent Lane;
b) Installing a ONE WAY westbound traffic flow condition from Regent Lane to Regent Street;
c) Installing localised speed humps (or other similar devices) along Stanley Lane to reduce traffic speed.
6. Accordingly the applicant submitted plans reflecting the above requirement. ( copy attached)
7. It is believed that the Land and Environment court has requested these changes to enhance safety within Stanley Lane, due to the approval of numerous developments within the same laneway.
8. Stanley Lane is 4.5m wide and as it exists parking is not permissible on either side of the laneway
9. Council’s traffic section does not object to the conversion of Stanley Lane to one way. However is considered that the direction of restriction should be reversed to eastbound.
10. Restricting traffic to eastbound direction in Stanley Lane would provide more storage of queuing vehicles within Stanley Lane and Regent Street while waiting for a gap to clear from the traffic queued on Regent Street during the red light phase for vehicles travelling eastbound along Regent Street.
Financial Implications
11. No budget impact for this report. All costs are borne by the Developer of 70-78 Regent Street, Kogarah
Community Engagement
12. Community engagement will be conducted during the TMP process
