Proposed new and extended clearways on Warringah Road from Roseville Bridge, Roseville Chase to Beacon Hill Road, Beacon Hill

November 2017

Community Consultation Report THIS PAGE LEFT INTENTIONALLY BLANK Executive summary

This report provides a summary of Roads and Maritimes Services’ consultation with the community and key stakeholders on the proposal to install new and extended clearways on Warringah Road from Roseville Bridge, Roseville Chase to Beacon Hill Road, Beacon Hill.

Roads and Maritime invited feedback on the proposal through an extended consultation period across the months of February and March 2017.We received feedback from 193 people and organisations, who raised a number of matters for Roads and Maritime to consider in determining how the proposal should progress. Key matters raised include the proposed clearway hours, parking, safety, and the introduction of clearways on other roads.

We also received a number of requests for information that were outside the scope of the proposal.

This proposal is part of the Sydney Clearways Strategy which aims to manage congestion on Sydney’s roads. The Strategy outlines how the introduction of new or extended clearways allows the existing capacity of State roads to be fully utilised immediately and help road users get to their destination sooner and with a more reliable journey time.

Clearways form part of a number of measures aimed at improving traffic flows on state roads, including no stopping restrictions, bus lanes and transit lanes. Clearways are directly aimed at alleviating congestion on key roads where on-street parking is obstructing the efficient performance of the whole corridor. Clearways can have an immediate positive benefit to road users at a low cost and without the need for road widening to introduce additional traffic lanes.

The current clearways network in Sydney provides considerable benefits for major roads across the morning and evening peak periods. Benefits include: x supporting the efficient movement of people and goods on Sydney roads x facilitating more reliable journey times for road users on major roads x managing growth in traffic flow and reduction of emission through smoother traffic flow x increasing peak period road capacity without expensive investment in widening roads x balancing the use of kerbside space outside of clearway times for parking.

The decision

Roads and Maritime thanks everyone who considered this proposal and provided feedback.

Roads and Maritime have decided to progress the proposal and display the Review of Environmental Factors (REF), which responds to feedback raised during the community consultation period in February and March 2017. More information on how you can view the REF can be found on our website at rms.nsw.gov.au/clearways.

4 Introduction

Background

On 1 December 2013, the NSW Government announced the Sydney Clearways Strategy as one of its key initiatives to reduce congestion on Sydney’s roads. This Strategy outlines how to get more from Sydney’s roads now – by introducing new or extended clearways on roads that don’t perform to expectations.

The NSW Government’s Long Term Transport Master Plan outlines a number of responses to traffic congestion in Sydney, aimed at improving travel on Sydney’s roads in both the short and the long term. One of the primary means to achieve this is the use of clearways.

Traffic growth in Sydney has reached a point where there is a need to consider further improvements in the use of the existing road network to reduce travel times. The current clearways network has been in place for several decades, and has proven to be effective in improving travel times. A particular need has been identified to extend clearways for weekend travel, where traffic growth has led to congestion levels similar to that of weekday peak periods.

The Sydney Clearways Strategy also sets out a process for engaging with local communities and councils and for ensuring alternative business parking is available, to minimise impacts on local businesses.

The NSW Government has committed $121 million to the clearways strategy which includes assisting local councils with alternative business parking solutions. So far, we have delivered over 230 kilometres of new and extended weekend and weekday clearways across the Sydney road network under the clearways strategy.

Warringah Road is a key corridor on Sydney’s road network that links Chatswood and the Northern Beaches and is part of State Road Number 328, gazetted in 1976. It forms part of the A38 corridor. It will also be an important route for access to the new Northern Beaches Hospital.

Warringah Road is a six lane divided road. Existing weekday clearways operate westbound from 6.00am to 10.00am and eastbound from 3.00pm to 7.00pm between Roseville Bridge and Forest Way. There are ‘No Parking’ and ‘No Stopping’ restrictions that operate at other times along this route. During our investigations, we found that there were nearly 75,000 vehicles using the corridor near Valley Road, Forestville and nearly 60,000 vehicles using the corridor near Daines Road, Beacon Hill, on weekdays.

The proposal

The proposal included extending the existing weekday peak clearways and introducing new weekend clearways on Warringah Road between Roseville Bridge, Roseville Chase and Beacon Hill Road, Beacon Hill. The proposed hours in both directions would be: x weekdays from 6am to 7pm x weekends and public holidays from 9am to 6pm.

The current ‘No Parking’ and ‘No Stopping’ restrictions would continue to operate outside of the proposed clearway hours.

Changes to clearway restrictions around the Northern Beaches Hospital road upgrade would take place once the roadwork is complete.

Category Matter raised Roads and Maritimes' response Proposal What are the methodology/criteria for the The Sydney Clearway Strategy published in December 2013, identified routes which may justification introduction of a new clearway, and how benefit from clearways and that required further investigation on Sydney’s road network, do the results of the investigations based on an assessment of the following criteria at that time: undertaken by Roads and Maritime show that Warringah Road meets these criteria? x directional traffic flows exceed 800 vehicles per hour per lane Roads and Maritime should conduct the x travel speeds are 30km/h or below during peak periods investigations to install clearways again. The investigations that were undertaken to Additionally, roads identified in the Strategy required further individual assessment to justify the new and extended clearways understand if: have not been collected and/or calculated correctly. x The road is a strategic bus or freight transport corridor for moving people and goods Traffic runs freely from Beacon Hill Road x Alternative public parking close to local businesses can be found, taking into account to Government Road. The level of traffic the quantity and usage of parking removed to extend or introduce a new clearway on this section is nowhere near 800 vehicles per hour. Through this strategy, Warringah Road was identified as:

x requiring further investigation for possible extended weekday and weekend clearways along sections of Warringah Road x being a suburban bus route in ‘Sydney’s Bus Future’, and x being a tertiary freight route in the NSW Freight and Port Strategy

This means, Warringah Road plays a vital role in Sydney’s transport network, and will continue to be relied upon as an important public transport and freight route in the future.

One of the key considerations for whether a new or extended clearway should be investigated to ease congestion on a major state road is if directional traffic flow exceeds 800 vehicles per hour per lane. Whilst Warringah Road has three lanes, cars are parked in the kerbside lane. This means there are two flow lanes of traffic, resulting in the combined traffic volume needing to exceed 1600 vehicles per hour per direction on the road as per Australian Standards guidelines. This Australian Standards guidelines is used even when ‘no parking’ or ‘no stopping’ restrictions are in place as illegally parked

Traffic volume data was investigated from the Roseville Bridge to the intersection of Warringah Road and Pittwater Road. Investigations carried out looked at the number of vehicles that moved along the road in both directions across the day on both weekdays and weekends. Traffic exceeds 1600 vehicles per hour in each direction during:

x weekday AM and PM peaks when existing clearway and ‘No Stopping’ restrictions are in place. x in between the existing AM and PM weekday peak periods x between 9am and 6pm on weekends.

This is referenced in the graphs below.

To confirm and validate this 2015 traffic volume data, Roads and Maritime has also analysed traffic volumes on Warringah Road, near Daines Parade, using data collected Category Matter raised Roads and Maritimes' response from January to April 2017. The results are as follows.

Figure 2 – Average traffic volumes from Warringah Road near Daines Parade in Beacon Hill between 3/1/2017 to 29/4/2017 (excluding school and public holidays) Source: RMS Mid-Block Counter

This data indicates the need for the kerbside lane to be clear through the introduction of a clearway to ensure traffic volumes can be distributed across three lanes instead of two (also see Figure 3). A clearway will help ease congestion, improve traffic flow, and improve safety. Category Matter raised Roads and Maritimes' response The majority of the corridor where parking was observed is occupied and zoned for residential uses. The traffic and parking study carried out in May 2015 found that there was minimal demand for business parking along the corridor and any loss could be accommodated by existing onsite parking at business or in side streets with no changes to current parking restrictions.

However, investigations of the traffic volumes between Beacon Hill Road and Pittwater Road did not support the introduction of new or extended clearways on Warringah Road between Beacon Hill Road and Pittwater Road at this time. This section was not included in the March 2017 proposal for new and extended clearways on Warringah Road. A clearway is not needed on Warringah A clearway is needed on Warringah Road through Beacon Hill to help manage traffic flow Road through Beacon Hill, as cars tend to and increase the useable road capacity. As discussed above, the investigations found use the middle lane regardless of whether that traffic volumes are in excess of the 800 vehicles per hour (or 1600 when combining or not there are cars parked in the the two functional lanes). As a result, road users experience congestion and delayed kerbside lane. travel times.

During current peak periods, existing parking restrictions including clearways are in place, and are effective in improving the performance of the road. The traffic volumes experienced now across the day warrant the ‘No Parking’ restrictions, being changed to clearways and the further extension of the clearway hours. Introducing new and extended clearways on weekdays between 6am and 7pm and on weekends and public holidays between 9am and 6pm would immediately help ease congestion and help road users get to their destinations sooner and in a more reliable timeframe.

Parking restrictions on Sydney’s state roads, including clearways, vary across the metropolitan area. Some apply during peak times only, others apply all day, and some roads don’t have clearways at all. The different hours of operation may cause road users to question the reliability of the kerbside lane whilst driving. In order to ‘play it safe’, and avoid the need to merge, road users may opt to stay in the middle lane as they know it will also be available to moving traffic.

A clearway across standard hours on weekends and weekdays is expected to change this behaviour as it ensures all lanes are available to road users and lets people know that the kerbside lane will not be blocked. This distributes traffic evenly across a road. This can also improve the efficiency of intersections as vehicles can move through intersections using all lanes. The classification of Warringah Road as State Roads form part of Sydney’s arterial road network and provide important regional

Road users rely on these important connections for the movement of people routes’ is incorrect. and goods within the Sydney metropolitan region. Warringah Road was classified as a State Road (Number 328) in 1976.

Warringah Road was identified as an important state road that would benefit from the installation of new and extended clearways in the Sydney Clearways Strategy due to the role it plays in moving people through Sydney’s north. It has also been identified as a:

x suburban bus route in ‘Sydney’s Bus Future’, and x tertiary freight route in the NSW Freight and Port Strategy

Warringah Road plays a vital role in Sydney’s transport network, and will continue to be relied upon as an important public transport and freight route in the future.

Roads and Maritime acknowledge that Warringah Road provides for local traffic and access to residential properties along the corridor. However as Sydney continues to grow, the NSW Government has reviewed its strategically important transport routes and identified how the existing road network can better perform to ensure the efficient movement of people and goods throughout the metropolitan area.

Since the Strategy was announced in 2013, over 230 kilometres of new and extended of clearways have been installed across Sydney helping road users get to their destination sooner, and more reliably.

Clearways currently operate from 6am to 7pm on weekdays and from 9am to 6pm on weekends along Devlin Street / Church Street / Lane Cove Road, from Ryde Bridge, Ryde to Bridge Road, North Ryde; Silverwater Road and Stewart Street from Parramatta Road to Marsden Road; and Concord Road, Homebush Bay Drive and Centenary Drive between Rhodes and Strathfield. These roads are similar to Warringah Road as they are next to and provide direct access to residential properties. Category Matter raised Roads and Maritimes' response There are currently a number of clearway proposals within Sydney’s North including along Pacific Highway, Boundary Street and Babbage Road, Eastern Valley Way, and Forest Way. Further information can be found on our website at rms.nsw.gov.au/clearways.

Parked vehicles in the kerbside lane cause ‘bottle necks’ resulting in congestion before the parked vehicles. Beyond the ‘bottle neck’ traffic generally flows more freely although at slower speeds.

Heavy usage and reliance on two available lanes results in longer queues at intersections, and reduces the number of vehicles moving through the intersections on each green traffic light phase. A clearway would increase the efficiency of the road and side roads by increasing the number of vehicles able to move through intersections during each green traffic light phase.

Parking for visitors will either be within properties, in driveways or similar, or in nearby side streets. This is similar to all other state roads where clearways and ‘No Stopping’ or ‘No Parking’ restrictions are in place.

As clearways continue to be rolled out across Sydney, road users will experience more efficient, safer, and more reliable journey times. Safety Side swipe type crashes have occurred as We acknowledge that some side streets in the area where parking can occur are narrow a result of cars parking in the narrow side and care needs to be taken when travelling and parking on these local streets. streets.

The information you provide, together with crash data and other road safety information will help to prioritise future locations for speed cameras in NSW.

NSW Police is responsible for monitoring the road network to ensure users comply with all road rules and regulations. Both the NSW and Roads and Maritime through the Mobile Speed Camera Program and NSW Police regularly enforce speed limits along Warringah Road, with regular enforcement near Roseville Bridge.

Allowing use of all lanes on Warringah Road should improve the efficiency through existing intersections, meaning that more vehicles can cross during each traffic signal cycle. This often results in “platooning” where groups of vehicles travel together in bunches or platoons at similar speeds with larger gaps between each platoon (i.e. groups of vehicles).

Larger gaps between platoons of vehicles allow more time to safely exit driveways, when compared with a steady stream of individual vehicles as observed when traffic is slowing and merging and when intersections are not operating efficiently.

25 Table 2 – Out of Scope Comments

Matter raised Roads and Maritimes' response What alternatives are there to introducing In order to reduce congestion on state roads there are a number of alternatives to introducing clearways. clearways? These include road widening and intersection upgrades.

In recent years, pinch point intersection improvements have been completed by Roads and Maritime on Warringah Road at Government Road and Arthur Street intersections. Roads and Maritime are also undertaking a major road widening project on Warringah Road in the vicinity of the Northern Beaches Hospital.

Therefore unlike parked vehicles which park for an backed up behind buses stopping. extended period of time, the impact of buses is not significant on the flow of traffic. Indented bus bays can help with the flow of traffic when warranted.

Other than the changes to bus facilities as part of the Northern Beaches Hospital Roadworks, there are no plans to indent bus bays on Warringah Road, at this time. A pedestrian bridge should be built across Roads and Maritime Services is preparing to remove the pedestrian crossing at the traffic lights across Starkey Street, to help ease congestion. Warringah Road at Starkey Street and install a new pedestrian bridge over Warringah Road east of Starkey Street. The Starkey Street Pedestrian Bridge will increase transport efficiency on Warringah Road through Forestville, minimise delays, allow for more effective road-based public transport and improve road safety.

1. Introduction

In June 2011, the Minister of Roads and Ports announced that a review of the current clearways and parking restrictions was to be undertaken with a view to developing a new Clearways Strategy for Sydney. The aim of this was to ultimately improve the efficiency and reliability of the State road network. This clearways strategy was also to form part of a larger group of initiatives strategically targeting congestion in and around the Sydney CBD.

On 1 December 2013, the Minister for Roads and Ports officially released the Sydney Clearways Strategy, Keeping Sydney Moving (referred to further within this report as “The Strategy”)1.

The Strategy identified that congestion costs Sydney residents an estimated $5.1 billion per year2. It also set out criteria for identifying potential weekday and weekend clearways, a process for engaging with local stakeholders and a process around supporting funding for providing alternative parking to minimise impacts on local businesses and residents.

Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime) has completed the parking investigations, and in some cases implemented clearways along a number of high priority Sydney Regional corridors being Victoria Road, the A1 (Princes Highway), the A3 (Pacific Highway, Lane Cove Road and Mona Vale Road), and Parramatta Road (A4). PeopleTrans was commissioned by the Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime) in May 2015 to investigate and analyse the traffic volumes and travel times along Warringah Road and Boundary Street from Pittwater Road, Brookvale to Pacific Highway, Roseville. This report provides a summary of the investigations and analysis of the proposed clearway corridor.

The investigation was to be undertaken broadly in accordance with the parking framework appended to the Strategy but more specifically in accordance with the Roads and Maritime study brief.

Key Study Objective The key objective of this study was to provide supporting information to Roads and Maritime related to lane by lane traffic volumes and corridor travel times. This information should allow Roads and Maritime to determine the feasibility / benefits or otherwise of extending the times or extent of the existing clearway times on Warringah Road / Boundary Street. Scope of Works The following work was undertaken as part of this study: Tube surveys recording lane-by-lane vehicle volume and speed 24 hours a day for a one- week period. Recording of end to end corridor travel times over a 9 day period (including two weekends) for the time periods indicated in Table 1.1. Surveys were undertaken along the entire corridor. Analysis of survey data

Table 1.1: Route 9 Daily Survey Times Date Survey Times Saturday 23/05/15 8:00am to 8:00pm Sunday 24/05/15 8:00am to 8:00pm Monday 25/05/15 6:00am to 7:00pm Tuesday 26/05/15 6:00am to 7:00pm Wednesday 27/05/15 6:00am to 7:00pm Thursday 28/05/15 6:00am to 7:00pm Friday 29/05/15 6:00am to 7:00pm Saturday 30/05/15 8:00am to 8:00pm Sunday 31/05/15 8:00am to 8:00pm

It is noted that due to vandalism of survey equipment, a small number of surveys had to be repeated in the weeks following the intended survey dates identified in Table 1.1. All survey days were considered ‘typical’ and as such, all the results have been reported as though the surveys occurred on the days identified in Table 1.1. Purpose of this Report This report provides a summary of all investigations and analysis of the proposed clearway corridor along Boundary Street and Warringah Road from Pacific Highway, Roseville to Pittwater Road, Brookvale.

2. Corridor – Warringah Road / Boundary Street

The following sections provide an overview of the investigations of the proposed clearway corridor which runs along Warringah Road / Boundary Street from Pittwater Road, Brookvale to Pacific Highway, Roseville, hereafter referred to as ‘the corridor.’ Route Overview The corridor is approximately 12.1km long and extends from Pittwater Road in Brookvale to Pacific Highway in Roseville as indicated in Figure 2.1. For the purposes of this study this equates to a total study length of 24.2km. There is one strip commercial / retail area along the route which is identified by the red circle in Figure 2.1.

The corridor is currently subject to the following weekday clearway restrictions: From Pacific Highway to Duntroon Avenue operating Monday to Friday from 6:00am to 10:00am and from 3:00pm to 7:00pm in both directions. From Duntroon Avenue to Forest Way operating Monday to Friday from 6:00am to 10:00am in a westbound direction and 3:00pm to 7:00pm in an eastbound direction. East of Forest Way, the corridor is not subject to any signed clearway restrictions (although there are some faded clearway pavement markings towards Wakehurst Parkway).

The corridor is contained within the Northern Beaches, Willoughby and Ku-Ring-Gai Local Government Areas.

The proposed clearway corridor has the following attributes: Total distance of approximately 24.2km (two-way). A total of 1 strip retail / commercial area. Long stretches of residential properties. Existing weekday clearway restrictions covering part of the corridor west of Forest Way. No clearway parking restrictions on the corridor east of Forest Way (although other timed parking restrictions apply).

3. Survey Analysis and Summary Results

The surveys and data collected as part of this study is summarised in Table 3.1.

Table 3.1: Summary of Surveys and Data Analysed Type of Surveys Surveys Undertaken Dates of Surveys or Data Provided by GPS Travel Time Surveys (car travel times along Austraffic Saturday 23/05/15 – Sunday 31/05/15 the corridor at hourly intervals) Tube Surveys Centre for Excellence Saturday 23/05/15 – Friday 29/05/15

A summary analysis of the data collected is provided in the following sections.

Travel Time Surveys PeopleTrans reviewed the video recorded during the driving surveys to determine the travel time from the start to the end of the route, in both the westbound and eastbound direction. Travel times were determined for the four weekend survey days and the five weekday survey days. The timing points are identified in Figure 3.1. Detailed travel time survey results are provided in Appendix A.

The reason that the travel time surveys were not extended to all the way to Pacific Highway is that parking is not permitted during the study hours and no vehicles were observed parking on Boundary Street between Pacific Highway and Addison Road.

Table 3.2 indicates that average and median travel times are higher on a Saturday than on a Sunday by approximately 30 seconds in the westbound direction.

Overall, parked cars were observed to cause limited delay as the main source of delay on the route was the timing of the traffic signals and intersection throughput. Through put of intersections could be increased by removing adjacent parking.

A summary of the results of the weekend travel time surveys in an eastbound direction are provided in Figure 3.5 to Figure 3.7.

Figure 3.5 indicates that typically, runs which commenced at approximately the same time of the day resulted in a similar travel time.

Runs slower than an average speed of 30 km/h were as follows: 2 runs on Saturday 23/5/15 (12:00pm and 2:00pm) A review of the video indicated that the delay in the 12:00pm travel time run was caused by parked cars between Allambie Road and Ellis Road. A source of the travel time delays on the 2:00pm run on Saturday 23/5/15 was traffic signals timing and throughput, though throughput of the intersection may be increased by removal of adjacent parking.

Runs which were slower than the 30 km/h average were as follows: 2 runs on Monday 25/5/15 (8:00am and 11:00am) 3 runs on Tuesday 26/5/15 (7:00am, 3:00pm and 5:00pm) 2 runs on Wednesday 27/5/15 (7:00am and 3:00pm) 3 runs on Thursday 28/5/15 (8:00am and 2:00pm to 3:00pm) 5 runs on Friday 29/5/15 (8:00am to 9:00am and 2:00pm to 4:00pm) The reason for delay and travel time variation was the timing of the traffic lights and intersection throughput, and the general level of traffic. Through put of intersections could be increased by removing adjacent parking. In addition, heavy vehicles travelling at the reduced heavy vehicle speed limit (20km/h) on the downhill approach to Pittwater Road caused delays to vehicles, although was not consistently observed.

The tube survey was undertaken in consultation with Roads and Maritime on Warringah Road immediately south of Valley Road. The tube survey was undertaken in this location to provide a reference point for the parking adjacent to the East Roseville Shopping Centre.

The results are summarised in in the following sections. The location of the tube surveys is shown in Figure 3.14 and Figure 3.15. Detailed tube survey results are provided in Appendix B. For the results in Appendix B, the northbound direction of the tube survey corresponds eastbound vehicle travel and the southbound tube surveys correspond westbound vehicle travel.

Volume Guidelines for the Provision of Clearways Australian Standard Parking Facilities Part 5: On-street parking Table 5.1 indicates the traffic volumes at which a clearway lane should start to operate to ensure an extra lane is available for moving traffic. The relevant information from the table is reproduced as Table 3.4.

An assessment of the relevant volume guidelines considering the number of lanes available on the corridor is set out in the following sections. Warringah Road / Boundary Street has 3 lanes in the westbound and eastbound directions for the majority of the corridor. One 4 lane section in the westbound direction was identified between Ormonde Road and Clive Street. One 2 lane section was also identified in the westbound and eastbound direction between Macquarie Street and Pacific Highway. The volume criteria of 1,600 vehicles / hour should apply for most of the corridor.

Tube Survey Results A summary of the volume data for the corridor is provided in Figure 3.16 to Figure 3.31.

Westbound Survey Results A summary of the traffic volume data covering the entire survey week in the westbound direction along the corridor is provided in Figure 3.16 to Figure 3.23.

Figure 3.16 to Figure 3.19 indicate the following for the surveyed days: Very similar peak volumes and daily volume profiles across the week with a slightly lower peak volume on the surveyed Friday compared to the other days of the week. There is no apparent reason for the variation on the surveyed Thursday in the kerb and middle lane volumes. It is likely to be a result of varied vehicle destination on the road network. The kerbside lane exceeds 800 vehicles per hour during the 7:00am to 10:00am peak period only. The middle lane exceeds 800 vehicles per hour from 7:00am to 7:00pm. The median lane exceeds 800 vehicles per hour from 7:00am to 11:00am and from 4:00pm to 6:00pm. The combined traffic volume of all lanes exceeds 1,600 vehicles per hour from around 6:30am to 7:00pm. The combined traffic volume of all lanes exceeds 2,400 vehicles per hour from 7:00am to 11:00am and from 4:00pm to 6:00pm.

15S440 22/06/17 Sydney Clearways StrategyWarringah Road from Pittwater Road, Brookvale to Roseville Bridge, Killarney Heights, Data Report – Parking Analysis Issue: B Introduction

1. Introduction

In June 2011, the Minister of Roads and Ports announced that a review of the current clearways and parking restrictions was to be undertaken with a view to developing a new Clearways Strategy for Sydney. The aim of this was to ultimately improve the efficiency and reliability of the State road network. This clearways strategy was also to form part of a larger group of initiatives strategically targeting congestion in and around the Sydney CBD.

On 1 December 2013, the Minister for Roads and Ports officially released the Sydney Clearways Strategy, Keeping Sydney Moving (referred to further within this report as “The Strategy”)1.

The Strategy identified that congestion costs Sydney residents an estimated $5.1 billion per year2. It also set out criteria for identifying potential weekday and weekend clearways, a process for engaging with local stakeholders and a process around supporting funding for providing alternative parking to minimise impacts on local businesses and residents.

Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime) has completed investigations, and in some cases implemented clearways along a number of high priority Sydney Regional corridors being Victoria Road, the A1 (Princes Highway), the A3 (Pacific Highway, Lane Cove Road and Mona Vale Road), and Parramatta Road (A4). PeopleTrans was commissioned by the Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime) in May 2015 to investigate the parking demand and parking duration along Warringah Road and Boundary Street from Roseville Bridge, Killarney Heights to Pittwater Road, Brookvale. This report provides a summary of the investigations and analysis of the proposed clearway corridor.

The investigation was to be undertaken broadly in accordance with the parking framework appended to the Strategy but more specifically in accordance with the Roads and Maritime study brief.

15S440 B - 22/06/17 Sydney Clearways Strategy, Warringah Road from Pittwater Road, Brookvale to Roseville Bridge, Killarney Heights, Data Report – Parking Analysis Page 1 Introduction

Key Study Objective The key objective of this study was to provide supporting information to Roads and Maritime related to parking demand and duration of stay and alternative parking options if parking was removed from the corridor. This information should allow Roads and Maritime to determine the feasibility / benefits or otherwise of extending the times or extent of the existing clearway times on Warringah Road. Scope of Works The following work was undertaken as part of this study:

An inventory of the on-street parking supply, including details of the various parking restrictions and current clearways. Identification of parking type (unrestricted, short-term, long-term, staff, customer etc.) Parking demand and duration of stay surveys over a 9 day period (including two weekends) for the time periods indicated in Table 1.1. Surveys were undertaken along the entire corridor.

Identification of additional measures required to cater for removal of business parking on Warringah Road if existing parking arrangements were not considered satisfactory.

Purpose of this Report This report provides a summary of all investigations and analysis of the corridor along Warringah Road from Pittwater Road, Brookvale to Roseville Bridge, Killarney Heights.

15S440 B - 22/06/17 Sydney Clearways Strategy, Warringah Road from Pittwater Road, Brookvale to Roseville Bridge, Killarney Heights, Data Report – Parking Analysis Page 2 Proposed Clearway Corridor – Warringah Road

2. Proposed Clearway Corridor – Warringah Road

The following sections provide an overview of the investigations of the corridor which runs along Warringah Road from Pittwater Road, Brookvale to Roseville Bridge, Killarney Heights, hereafter referred to as ‘the corridor.’ Route Overview The corridor is approximately 9km long and extends from Pittwater Road in Brookvale to the start of Roseville Bridge in Killarney Heights as indicated in Figure 2.1. For the purposes of this study, including the assessment of parking in both the westbound and the eastbound directions this equates to a total study length of 18km.

The corridor is currently subject to the following weekday clearway restrictions: From Roseville Bridge to Forest Way operating Monday to Friday from 6:00am to 10:00am in a westbound direction and 3:00pm to 7:00pm in an eastbound direction. East of Forest Way, the corridor is not subject to any signed clearway restrictions (although there are some faded clearway pavement markings towards Wakehurst Parkway).

The corridor is contained within the Northern Beaches Local Government Area.

Corridor

The proposed clearway corridor has the following attributes: Total distance of approximately 18.0 km (two-way). Long stretches of residential properties. Existing weekday clearway restrictions covering part of the corridor west of Forest Way. No clearway parking restrictions on the corridor east of Forest Way.

15S440 B - 22/06/17 Sydney Clearways Strategy, Warringah Road from Pittwater Road, Brookvale to Roseville Bridge, Killarney Heights, Data Report – Parking Analysis Page 3 Proposed Clearway Corridor – Warringah Road

On-Street / Public Parking Inventory In May 2015 an inventory of the parking supply along the proposed clearway corridor was recorded by PeopleTrans. Details of the parking inventory (parking supply and restrictions) are provided in Figure 2.2 and Figure 2.5.

Where, on occasion, signs were missing or inconsistent with the Australian Standards, the intended parking restriction was recorded. That is for example, where a “No Stopping” sign was missing but the section of road was intended to be “No Stopping”, that restriction was adopted.

The methodology and assumptions used in calculating the parking supply for the corridor was as follows: PeopleTrans walked the entire length of the route (two-way) and measured the available parking spaces. Where cars were parked, these were also used as the basis for calculating the car parking supply. Where no cars were parked, the car parking supply was calculated using on site measurements with reference to the Australian and NSW Road Rules and AS2890.5-1993 On-street parking as follows:

 10m No Stopping restrictions at uncontrolled side street intersections  20m No Stopping restrictions on the approach and exit to traffic signals  30m Bus Zones  Assumed car parking space lengths of 5.4m for end spaces and 6.5m for midblock spaces.

Indented parking or parking that would not be affected by new clearways was not included in the inventory or was identified separately.

Off-Street Parking Inventory PeopleTrans has undertaken a review of properties likely to be affected by the proposed extension of the clearways to determine the existing off-street parking supply and whether, with minor modifications additional parking supply could be achieved.

Each property was reviewed between Allambie Road and Pittwater Road to determine the minimum available off-street parking. All properties identified by the Warringah LEP maps have off-street parking.

It is noted that 271A Warringah Road, Beacon Hill may have shared parking facilities with 271 Warringah Road. This property appears to be a single dwelling however there are two letter boxes on the driveway which suggests that the house has been separated internally. The Warringah LEP maps show that this is a single lot / property. Survey of Demand and Duration of Stay Driving surveys of the entire corridor were undertaken during the times indicated in Table 2.1, to identify the parking demand and duration of stay at hourly intervals for the length of the survey period. This was done to identify the demand of spaces outside retail areas.

Table 2.1: Route 8 Daily Survey Times Date Survey Times Saturday 23/5/15 8:00am to 8:00pm Sunday 24/5/15 8:00am to 8:00pm Monday 25/5/15 10:00am to 7:00pm Tuesday 26/5/15 10:00am to 7:00pm Wednesday 27/5/15 10:00am to 7:00pm Thursday 28/5/15 10:00am to 7:00pm Friday 29/5/15 10:00am to 7:00pm Saturday 30/5/15 8:00am to 8:00pm Sunday 31/5/15 8:00am to 8:00pm

During the driving surveys, a small number of videos did not record correctly due to equipment error. The small number of surveys were repeated during typical weeks in June 2015. All survey days are considered ‘typical’ and have been reported as though all surveys occurred during the period 23 May to 31 May 2015.

3. Parking Survey Analysis and Summary Results

The entire corridor was surveyed at hourly intervals by in-car video camera. The footage was used to identify the demand and duration of stay of cars parked at hourly intervals at any location along the corridor.

Parking Outside the Retail Areas To understand the amount of car parking occurring outside the retail areas, PeopleTrans and Austraffic undertook surveys using an in-car video camera. The entire corridor was driven commencing on the hour for the entire survey period (9 days). PeopleTrans reviewed the hourly video data to determine the type of car, location and duration of stay for all vehicles. The results of the surveys are summarised in the following sections.

Typical Location of Parking Across the 9 survey days, there were locations where parking often occurred, and for a significant amount of the corridor no parking was observed at any time. These parking locations were primarily adjacent to residential properties. Figure 3.1 indicates that parking was typically observed in eight locations as follows: Location A – Between Government Road and Allambie Road Location B – Between Willandra Road and Government Road Location C – Between Alfred Street and Princess Mary Street Location D – Between Pittwater Road and Alfred Street Location E – Between Alfred Street and Pittwater Road Location F – Between McKillop Road and Alfred Street Location G – Between Ellis Road and Willandra Road Location H – Between Allambie Road and Ellis Road

Through a review of the videos, a number of the same vehicles were observed throughout the week and on weekends parking in the same location. These vehicles were parked outside residential properties and it is assumed that they are residential vehicles.

Trucks were also parked for long periods on Warringah Road near Pittwater Road and these are assumed to be associated with the nearby Brookvale industrial area.

Duration of stay on average per vehicle is almost identical on weekdays and on weekends.

A summary of the parking survey results is provided in Table 3.1.

Summary of Analysis

4. Summary of Analysis

Parking Sufficiency of Nearby Locations

Outside Retail Area In respect of the parking outside retail areas, all of the properties surveyed between Allambie Road and Pittwater Road have some level of off-street car parking. Additional parking is also available in nearby side-streets throughout the week.

Through on-site observations and review of aerial photography (NearMap) if additional clearways are implemented it appears likely that there are sufficient spaces either on private properties or in nearby side streets to cater for the State Road parking demand between Allambie Road and Pittwater Road.

For the monthly Warringah Markets, parking is available in Ellis Road, Government Road and Dareen Street however we have not surveyed the demand in these streets at the peak market time.

East of Beacon Hill Road there were a high percentage of heavy vehicles parked and there was no immediate area where these vehicles could be relocated. If Roads and Maritime decide to implement a clearway on Warringah Road east of Beacon Hill Road, a commercial parking area is likely to be required to replace the trucks and commercial vehicles that are assumed to be from the businesses in the Brookvale industrial area. It is likely that the heavy vehicles are parked in this location because there is insufficient space on each individual property.

Next Steps This report provides a good basis for Roads and Maritime to commence discussions with affected Councils and the wider community regarding the implementation of clearways along Warringah Road.

This report is based on surveys undertaken in May 2015. It does not consider any proposals by Council or private developments which could impact on the parking demand, both now and in the future, within the vicinity of the proposed clearway corridor.

This report is designed to assist in identifying the locations of places which may be relevant in determining obligations under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. It holds mapped locations of World and National Heritage properties, Wetlands of International and National Importance, Commonwealth and State/Territory reserves, listed threatened, migratory and marine species and listed threatened ecological communities. Mapping of Commonwealth land is not complete at this stage. Maps have been collated from a range of sources at various resolutions.

Not all species listed under the EPBC Act have been mapped (see below) and therefore a report is a general guide only. Where available data supports mapping, the type of presence that can be determined from the data is indicated in general terms. People using this information in making a referral may need to consider the qualifications below and may need to seek and consider other information sources.

For threatened ecological communities where the distribution is well known, maps are derived from recovery plans, State vegetation maps, remote sensing imagery and other sources. Where threatened ecological community distributions are less well known, existing vegetation maps and point location data are used to produce indicative distribution maps.

Threatened, migratory and marine species distributions have been derived through a variety of methods. Where distributions are well known and if time permits, maps are derived using either thematic spatial data (i.e. vegetation, soils, geology, elevation, aspect, terrain, etc) together with point locations and described habitat; or environmental modelling (MAXENT or BIOCLIM habitat modelling) using point locations and environmental data layers.

Where very little information is available for species or large number of maps are required in a short time-frame, maps are derived either from 0.04 or 0.02 decimal degree cells; by an automated process using polygon capture techniques (static two kilometre grid cells, alpha-hull and convex hull); or captured manually or by using topographic features (national park boundaries, islands, etc). In the early stages of the distribution mapping process (1999-early 2000s) distributions were defined by degree blocks, 100K or 250K map sheets to rapidly create distribution maps. More reliable distribution mapping methods are used to update these distributions as time permits.

Only selected species covered by the following provisions of the EPBC Act have been mapped: - migratory and - marine The following species and ecological communities have not been mapped and do not appear in reports produced from this database:

- threatened species listed as extinct or considered as vagrants - some species and ecological communities that have only recently been listed - some terrestrial species that overfly the Commonwealth marine area - migratory species that are very widespread, vagrant, or only occur in small numbers The following groups have been mapped, but may not cover the complete distribution of the species: - non-threatened seabirds which have only been mapped for recorded breeding sites - seals which have only been mapped for breeding sites near the Australian continent Such breeding sites may be important for the protection of the Commonwealth Marine environment.
