1 PROPOSAL DETAILS

Name and Location of Proposed Activity

Top Ryde Town Centre – Review On-street parking

Local Government Area City of Ryde

2 DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM

The recent Town Centre upgrades to Church Street to improve the public domain appearance and future “activation” have resulted in the loss of approximately eight (8) short term parking spaces. The remaining on-street parking within the Top Ryde Town Centre is considered as highly sort after short-term parking areas by shoppers and needs to reviewed to facilitate greater parking turnover.

3 BACKGROUND

The shopkeepers have made representation to Council raising concerns with respect to the loss of the eight (8) short term parking spaces. A meeting was convened onsite on Friday 6 December 2013, to discuss the options available to reinstate the parking spaces that were lost, and make amenity for a loading zone for deliveries. This report outlines the investigation into this matter.

4 SITE CONTEXT

Top Ryde Town Centre is a vibrant town centre that has a variety of mixed businesses that includes Top Ryde Shopping Centre. The plan below illustrates the “key” parking boundary areas within the Town Centre that are likely to experience high parking demand with regards to the Church Street vicinity.

Stage 1: Parking Assessment – Immediate area with direct access to shopping facilities.

Stage 2: Parking Assessment – 250 metres walking radius from the central point within the

effected shopping precinct.

Stage 3 – Work Zone

5 ANALYSIS OF AVAILABLE PARKING

The following table(s) below details the various parking management options that could be considered to assist with parking demand within the Top Ryde Town Centre in three (3) stages which can be broadly described as follows:

Stage 1: On-street Parking Assessment within the boundary of the “likely” critical parking areas within Top Ryde Town Centre in relation to current short-term parking along Church Street.

Stage 2: Off-Street Parking Assessment within the boundary of the non-critical parking areas within Top Ryde Town Centre in relation to current short-term parking along Church Street. I.e. Council Car parks.

Stage 3: On-street and off-street Parking Assessment within a 250 metre ‘walking’ radius of the central point within the Top Ryde Town Centre shopping precinct, within the vicinity of Church Street.

Comment

General Requirements

All within the Stage 1 Boundary Line

Parking Bay Line Marking

Majority of Businesses in the area that have a street frontage

Moderate level of “over parking” (occupying more than one (1) equivalent parking space) seems to be occurring in relation to parallel parking (see FIGURE 1)

Specific Requirements

Church Street, Ryde

1. Adjustment of parking spaces within the Council Carpark to meet the Australian Standards (Gain of 2 parking spaces)

2. Convert part of the existing 1/4P along the eastern side of Church Street to a timed Loading Zone with 1/4P outside of delivery times. (Consultation with shopkeepers required to identify delivery period) (Gain of 1 Loading Zone space)

3. Convert the taxi zone into 1P during the day with taxi access during the afternoon or night, when the taxi is more likely to be used. (Gain of 1 parking space)

Note: Consultation with affected businesses has yet to occur.

Businesses along the Eastern Side of Church Street.

1. The current layout of the Council carpark has spaces which are oversized. Additional space can be provided if the layout it adjusted to the AS2890.1(2004).

2. Council officers determined that this would be the most practical position for the loading zone so that deliveries can be run down the hill, whilst empty trolleys would be easier to negotiate up the hill. (see FIGURE 2, FIGURE 3 & FIGURE 4).

3. On three separate site visits, (9:00am, 12:00pm and 4:00pm, it was noted that there was no taxi making use of this taxi zone. It is expected that the new Taxi rank on Pope Street is the primary location of all taxi movements for the Top Ryde Town Centre.

Comments: Please refer to the following page for location plans detailing the proposed parking changes as detailed above.

5.2 Stage 2: On-street Parking Assessment within non-critical Town Centre boundary



Comment


Gowrie Street, Ryde

4. Convert 11m of the existing 1/2P starting from 28.8m from the intersection of Gowrie Street and Church Street to 1P (Gain of 0 parking spaces)

5. Convert 5 of the existing unrestricted parking to 2P restrictions starting from 10m from the intersection of Gowrie Street and Edward Street (Gain of 5 parking spaces)

Businesses along the Eastern Side of Church Street.

4. The existing 1/2P has been adopted to assist in the Waste collection of businesses along Church Street. With a higher turnover of vehicles, the waste vehicles can access the site with reduced impact on the short term parking facilities.

5. With regard to units, as part of their development application, it is a condition that they provide resident and visitor parking off-street. This enables Council to make use of the unrestricted spaces in front of these dwellings to benefit both the business owners, by providing more short term parking for potential customers, as well as the residents, by removing likelihood of commuters in front of their premises thereby allowing them access to and from their properties.
