RANDWICK CITY COUNCIL TRAFFIC COMMITTEE
The following information is provided so that you may be aware of the structure and
operation of the Randwick City Traffic Committee.
The Randwick Traffic Committee is a Committee of Randwick City Council but
not one set up under the Local Government Act.
Council has been delegated certain powers, from Roads and Maritime
Services (RMS), with regard to traffic matters upon its local roads. A
condition of this delegation is that Council must take into account the Traffic
Committee recommendations.
Recommendations in this document may either activate the formal
delegation from RMS to the Council, or not activate this delegation. Items
which activate the delegation are indicated with the initials (AD) below the
heading.
There are four permanent members of the Traffic Committee, each of whom
has a single vote only.
The members are: the NSW Police Service, Roads and Maritime
Services (RMS), the Local State Member of Parliament (for the location
of the issue to be voted upon) and Randwick City Council.
Randwick City Council welcomes the public to attend and speak at its Traffic
Committee on issues of concern.
If the Local Member disagrees with any of the Traffic Committee
recommendations, they may appeal to the RMS or the Minister for Roads.
If the Police or the RMS disagrees with any of the Traffic Committee
recommendations, or Council’s resolution on any Traffic Committee
recommendation, they may lodge an appeal with the Sydney Regional Traffic
Committee for determination. The appeal must be lodged in writing within
14 days of the notification to the members of Council’s decision on the
recommendation.
Any action relative to any issue under appeal must cease until the matter is
determined.
The Sydney Regional Traffic Committee is chaired by an independent
chairperson and submissions and representations are welcomed from all
interested parties.

4. Items for Consideration
At this time the Chair asked those present at the meeting to nominate those items
about which they would like some discussion or elaboration.
The Recommendations on all other items, not so nominated, were then considered en
bloc and were approved by the Committee.
4.1 ALISON ROAD, RANDWICK, RESIDENT PARKING EXTENSION, AREA RA3 (C)
Signage, Parking - 2P Resident Parking
(D03085070-DA (AD)
Following resident’s concern regarding the parking availability within the Resident
Parking Area RA3 at the vicinity of Alison Road, Church Street, Prince Street and
Frances Street, Randwick, a desktop audit was undertaken. It has been revealed that
41 Resident Parking Permits were issued against 37 Resident Parking Spaces available
within RA3 along Alison Road, Church Street, Prince Street and Frances Street.
Therefore, it is considered that 4 additional Resident Parking Spaces be installed on the
northern side of Alison Road near 120 Alison Road. Currently, four unrestricted spaces
are available between the existing 2P resident Parking Zone and the No Stopping
restrictions approaching Botany Street traffic signal.
RANDWICK TRAFFIC COMMITTEE 13 FEBRUARY 2018
MINUTES 3
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That:
1. Four resident parking spaces “2P, 8:00am-6:00pm, Mon-Fri, Permit Holders
Excepted, Area RA3” be installed on the northern side of Alison Road between
the existing Resident Parking sign and the No Stopping sign (near 120 Alison
Road) approaching Botany Street traffic signal; and
2. The residents of Alison Road between Prince Street and Church Street be
notified about the parking restrictions changes.
4.2 BREAM STREET, COOGEE (C) Signage Parking - 10 minute
(D03105775-LH) (AD)
In consideration of a development application for a child care centre at 54B Bream
Street, Coogee (DA/936/2015) the Council endorsed the following conditions:
34. Plans shall be submitted to Randwick Traffic Committee for consideration and approval indicating the following;
a. Provision of a timed pick-up and drop-off zone with associated
signage along the Bream Street site frontage stating “10 minute parking 7:00-9:00am 3:30-6:00pm Mon-Fr” (unless varied by RTC). The timed pickup & drop-off zone must be long enough to accommodate 6 car spaces only (approx. 36m).
b. Provision of a 6m long motorbike parking zone at a suitable location
on the Bream Street frontage together with any associated kerb nibs and signage stating “Motorbike Parking only” as required.
While the provision of a timed pick-up and drop-off zone is supported, the provision of
a separate motorbike parking zone is not considered to be required as Bream Street is
currently unrestricted with enough provision for motorbike parking.
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That 36m of restricted parking zone, “10 minute parking, 7:00-9:00am 3:30-6:00pm
Mon-Fri”, be installed at the frontage of 54B Bream Street, Coogee, (commencing
approximately 40m west of Brook Street) upon completion of the current construction
works.
4.3 CARLTON STREET, KENSINGTON (C) Signage, Parking – Resident Parking
(D03114232-TL) (AD)
Following on from concerns raised with Council about the parking regime instigated in
Carlton Street, Kensington, Mr Lehmann met a number of residents onsite to discuss a
number of parking concerns.
Rising from this meeting are proposed changes to the resident parking restrictions.
Mr Lehmann tabled a plan showing changes proposed to the parking controls at three
locations in the western end of Carlton Street, Kensington.

Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That the proposed changes to the parking controls at the three locations indicated
toward the western end of Carlton Street, Kensington, are approved for
implementation.
4.4 CHURCH STREET / COWPER STREET, RANDWICK (C) Intersection - Bicycle Ramp
(D03129419-ST) (AD)
Last year a roundabout was installed on Church Street and Cowper Street, Randwick,
as part of a RMS funding initiative to improve the safety of the intersection.
However there has been a number of concerns raised by bike riders navigating the
new roundabout, particularly regarding the south bound approach on Church Street.
People riding up the hill have reported getting “squeezed” by cars approach from
behind, wanting to enter the roundabout. This issue was also brought up in the
November 2017 Cycleway and Bicycle Facilities Advisory Committee (CABFAC)
meeting, item 5.1.
Installation of a bike ramp on the north east side of the intersection (as shown in the
concept drawing below) would provide bike riders with an alternative approach to the
roundabout. This will provide bike riders with the option of entering a shared path and
crossing Cowper Street by walking across the pedestrian crossing. The proposed
shared path area is shown in purple below.
Figure 1 - Concept drawing of the installation of a bike ramp on Church Street
and Cowper Street, Randwick
RANDWICK TRAFFIC COMMITTEE 13 FEBRUARY 2018
MINUTES 6
Mr Ben Borger (RMS) suggested that the proposal as detailed may not be satisfactory
due to the likelihood of pedestrian / bike rider conflict and due to bike riders riding
directly across the pedestrian crossing, instead of dismounting. Mr Eric Graham (STA)
endorsed these views and provided several examples where cyclists ride across
pedestrian crossings resulting in unsafe conditions for other road users. Mr Larry
Vincent (resident) stated that he was a bike rider and that he agreed that it was
unlikely that bike riders would dismount to cross Cowper Street.
Mr Lehmann stated that he had also been made aware that another local resident had
also expressed concern about likely conflict between pedestrians and bike riders.
Much discussion then ensued about the best form of treatment at this intersection and
it was agreed to defer the matter for further investigation.
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That the issue of providing for bicycle riders travelling through the Church Street /
Cowper Street roundabout be deferred pending further investigations.
4.5 COOGEE RESIDENT PARKING EXTENSION, AREA CO2 (C) Signage, Parking - 2P Resident Parking
D02883272-DA (AD)
The Council recently resolved (NM4/17) that a survey of residents in Byron Street and
relevant adjacent streets be undertaken to gauge support for the extension of the
resident parking scheme.
Subsequently, in November 2017 some 750 residents of the following streets were
surveyed to gauge their views on the proposed extension and be included within the
existing CO2 Resident Parking Area:
Byron Street: Between Dudley Street and Carr Street, Coogee
Dudley Street: Between Byron Street and Brook Street, Coogee
Mount Street: Between Dudley Street and Carr Street, Coogee
Edgecumbe Avenue: North of Dudley Street, Coogee
Brook Street: Western section of Brook Street, north of Dudley Street, Coogee.
The residents received a letter, a survey form, Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) sheet,
a map and a reply-paid envelope to express their views on the proposed extension.
Some 142 responses were received. Overall 46.5% respondents are not in favour of
the scheme and 47.9% respondents are in favour of the scheme. 5.6% respondents
are neither in favour nor against the proposal. The following data relates to the 142
responses from residents of the surveyed streets.
Survey findings

Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That:
1. Eight resident parking spaces “2P, 8:00am-8:00pm, Mon-Sun, Permit Holders
Excepted, Area CO2” be installed on the western side of Brook Street, starting
10m north of Dudley Street, Coogee, and continue 40m northerly;
2. Three resident parking spaces “2P, 8:00am-8:00pm, Mon-Sun, Permit Holders

starting 10m north of Dudley Street, Coogee, and continue 15m northerly; and
6. The affected residents be notified of these parking changes.
4.6 JOHN STREET, RANDWICK (C) Linemarking - Keep Clear
(D03097273-DA (AD)
A request has been received asking for Keep Clear markings to be installed on John
Street at John Lane, Randwick. It has been suggested that motorists travelling north
along John Lane wishing to turn Left into John Street regularly have a lengthy wait
until there’s a break in queued westbound traffic to make the turn.
Although “Do Not Queue Across Intersection” signage is currently in place at the
intersection, regular observational surveys in the AM peak period have confirmed that
queued traffic often blocks John Lane motorists wishing to turn left or right. Given that
the subject intersection is some 30 metres east of the Alison Road / John Street
signals (from where queuing commences) it is proposed to install a ‘Keep Clear’
intersection line marking on John Street, opposite the intersection with John Lane.
Mr Eric Graham (STA) sought clarification on the extent of space that would be utilised
for these Keep Clear markings. Mr Lehmann responded that that it would be in order
of three metres.
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That, “Keep Clear” intersection signs and line marking be installed facing westbound
John Street traffic, at the intersection of John Lane, Randwick.

4.7 KURRAWA AVENUE, COOGEE (C) Signage, Parking - Motorcycle Only
(D03098835-LH) (AD)
Council has received a request to extend the existing motorcycle only parking zone, on
the eastern side of Kurrawa Avenue, Coogee by 4m to the south. There is currently 4m
of residential permit parking zone that is located between the driveways of 138 Beach
Street and 3 Kurrawa Avenue which is large enough to accommodate a small car only.
Council has received complaints that frequently this space is occupied by larger cars
that obstruct access to these properties. It is recommended that the existing
motorcycle only parking zone be extended to include the 4m of kerbside at the rear of
138 Beach Street, Coogee.
There are currently 16 Resident Parking Permits issued to residents of Kurrawa Avenue
and 32 available parking spaces for the Resident Parking Permit Scheme along
Kurrawa Avenue. The conversion of this space from resident parking zone only to
motorcycle parking zone only should not negatively impact current permit holders as
there will be 31 spaces available for 16 permit holders.
Mr Sangster (representing the Member for Coogee) sought clarification on the rationale
for removing this parking space. He also sought clarification about requests from the
resident to have the illegal parking enforced by Council Rangers. Mr Lehmann stated
that the resident regularly had access to their driveway compromised because of larger
vehicles overhanging the driveway space. He also stated that he was unaware as to
any requests from the resident for enforcement. However, he stated that in an area
like this which experiences significant parking pressure from beach goers, enforcement
would not likely create a change in behaviour by all the various visitors to the street.
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That the existing Motorcycle Only parking zone, on the eastern side of Kurrawa
Avenue, Coogee, be extended by 4m to the south to the northern edge of the driveway
of 3 Kurrawa Avenue. This will require the Resident Parking Permit zone on the eastern
side of Kurrawa Avenue to be reduced by 4m at the rear of 138 Beach Street, Coogee.
4.8 MALABAR ROAD, SOUTH COOGEE (C) Signage, Parking - ½P Parking
(D03035026-DA)(AD)
At the November 2017 Traffic Committee meeting an approval was given to install
11m of “½P, 8:00am-6:00pm, Mon-Sun,” parking restrictions on the western side of
Malabar Road commencing 10m south of the intersection with Rainbow Street.
Subsequently, one of the business owner called and advised that the time restrictions
until 6pm is not conducive to his business as his business opens till 9pm.
Therefore, it is suggested that the time restrictions be extended up to 9pm.
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That:
1. 11m of “½P, 8:00am-9:00pm, Mon-Sun,” parking restrictions be installed on
the western side of Malabar Road commencing 10m south of the intersection
with Rainbow Street; and
2. The adjacent businesses be notified about the changes.

4.9 MELODY STREET, COOGEE (C) Signage Parking - Regulatory
(D03097071-LH) (AD)
Concerns have been raised by residents of Dolphin Street that there have been a
number of near misses at the intersection of Dolphin Street and Melody Street,
Coogee. Investigation of recorded crashes at this intersection showed that there have
been eight instances of cross traffic crashes in the last 13 years. The approach from
both sides of Melody Street is on a steep gradient and it is recommended that
regulatory ‘STOP’ signage, and associated delineation, be installed to slow traffic
crossing Dolphin Street.
Mr Ben Borger (RMS) indicated that the proposed implementation of Stop signage at
this location did not comply with the RMS guidance on such matters. He stated that
the most recent five years of crash history suggested that the intersection was
performing relatively safely and that RMS did not support this proposal.
Mr Lehmann noted the concerns of RMS and asked that the recommendation be
adjusted as per the following.
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That:
1. Supplementary Give Way signs be installed in Melody Street, on both the
northern and southern approaches to Dolphin Street; and
2. Ten metres of double centrelines be installed in Melody Street extending back
from the Give Way linemarking to both the northern and the southern sides of
Dolphin Street, Coogee.
4.10 PRINCE STREET, RANDWICK (C)
Signage, Parking - No Stopping
(D03102653-LH) (AD)
In relation to October 2017 Traffic Committee Item 6.3, which recommended the
reduction of the No Stopping zone on the eastern side of Prince Street, north of the
intersection with Frances Street, from 20m to the regulatory 10m. Council has received
feedback from residents that, due to an effective shortening of this zone during recent
construction works, there have been several near misses as the sight distance for
vehicles emerging from Frances Street is very limited. Due to the orientation and
gradient of the road at this intersection it is recommended that the status quo be
maintained and the No Stopping zone remain at 20m.
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That the existing No Stopping zone on the eastern side of Prince Street, Randwick,
extending 20m north of the intersection with Frances Street be maintained.
4.11 QUAIL STREET, COOGEE (C) Signage, Parking - Motorcycle Only
(D03111762-LH) (AD)
Council has received correspondence from a resident raising concerns that the parking
area between 5 and 7 Quail Street, Coogee, was frequently being used by two cars and
RANDWICK TRAFFIC COMMITTEE 13 FEBRUARY 2018
MINUTES 11
obstructing the adjacent driveways. The kerb between the driveways is approximately
8.2m and as such is not wide enough to accommodate more than one car.
Mr Sangster (representative for Member of Coogee) expressed concern about the
perceived loss of parking as a result of this recommendation. He suggested that an
approach being taken by Woollahra Council, whereby they are trialling a mix of car and
motorcycle spaces, be considered for such situations. Mr Lehmann agreed to
investigate Woollahra Council’s approach. Ms Akhter (RCC) advised that the resident
concerned had contacted Council’s Rangers for enforcement assistance on many
occasions and had paid for the introduction of driveway linemarking.
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That 2.2m of Motorcycle Only parking be installed commencing from the edge of the
driveway at the frontage of 7 Quail Street, Coogee, extending west.
4.12 RANDWICK RESIDENT PARKING SCHEME, AREA RA11 (C) Signage, Parking - Resident Parking
(F2017/00508-DA) (AD)
As part of its regular review of the Resident Parking Scheme (RPS), and as a result of a
number of concerns expressed by residents, the operation of the resident parking
scheme to the south of “The Spot” area has been examined.
The Council surveyed Randwick residents (within the proposed RA11 resident parking
area) in November 2017 to see if there was community support for introduction of the
RPS into their area. Residents received a letter informing them about the survey and
about 360 responses to the survey were received.
About the Survey
In November 2017, Council surveyed some 1050 residents of Randwick area
comprising the proposed RA11 resident parking area to see if there was community
support for introduction of the Resident Parking Scheme into the area.

Mr Matt Delfendahl (resident) sought clarification on the methodology used for the community surveys about resident parking. Mr Lehmann stated that response rates of 10% were considered typical with regard to Council’s consultation. He further stated that the recommendations arising out of such surveys were based on the majority opinion of those residents who respond. Traffic Committee Recommendation: That:
1. Three resident parking spaces “2P, 8:00am-8:00pm, Mon-Fri, Permit Holders Excepted, Area RA11” be installed on the northern side of Bundock Lane starting at the western property boundary of 52 Bundock Lane, Randwick, and continue 15m easterly;

4.16 TUNSTALL AVENUE, KINGSFORD (H) Linemarking
(D03094098-LH) (AD) Council has received a request to review the location of the double centrelines (BB
lines) on Tunstall Avenue, Kingsford, north of the intersection with Tresidder Avenue.
There is currently approximately 135m of BB line commencing from this intersection
and extending northwards to a crest on Tunstall Avenue. The eastern side of Tunstall
Avenue is a restricted ‘No Stopping’ zone for this length and the western side is
unrestricted. The BB line is equidistant from the western and eastern kerb allowing 4m
lane width for vehicles travelling south and only 2m for vehicles travelling north due to
cars parked on the western side. It is recommended that the current centreline
delineation be relocated laterally 1m east to provide an effective lane width of 3m for
both northbound and southbound vehicles as per diagram below.

4.17 DIVE STREET, MATRAVILLE (M) Signage, Regulatory - Stop Sign
(D03066481-DK) (AD)
Concerns have been raised with the Council suggesting that on many occasions drivers
have overlooked the existing Give Way priority control in Dive Street, at the
intersection with Beauchamp Road, Matraville. An examination of the crash history,
reveals there have been four recorded crashes in the last five years at this location. It
is considered that the Give Way priority control in Dive Street be converted to a Stop
sign priority control; with double centre lines being installed to improve safety and
awareness of motorists approaching the intersection.
Mr Ben Borger (RMS) queried the appropriateness of the recommendation given the
RMS guidelines on such matters. Sgt Withers indicated that he had attended a number
of serious collisions at this location and that he supported the recommendation. Mr
Lehmann stated that there were strong feelings within the community about this
intersection. It was agreed to endorse the recommendation.
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That:
1. Stop sign priority controls replace the existing Give Way controls in Dive Street,
at Beauchamp Road, Matraville, to improve safety and for the awareness of
motorists approaching the intersection; and

Linemarking
(D03091216-DA (AD)
A resident from 78 Maroubra Road, Maroubra, raised concerns regarding blocking
access to their property through Glanfield Street, near the ForCaz automotive
workshop, Maroubra. The Council has recently upgraded Glanfield Street with kerb and
gutter and created angle parking bays in Glanfield Street as shown in the following
figure. The 78 Maroubra Road property has access through Glanfield Street to their
backyard and often cars are parked in front of the gate and blocking access to the
residents.
Therefore, it is considered that 90 degree angle parking line marking be installed (as
per the Australian Standard AS 2890.5) in Glanfield Street between the ELP MA35477
and the Forcaz automotive workshop and hatched line marking be installed in that
space (as shown in the diagram) to prevent any vehicles from parking and improve the
accessibility issue for the residents at 78 Maroubra Road.
Traffic Committee Recommendation:
That:
1. 90 degree angle parking line marking be installed (as per the Australian
Standard AS 2890.5) on south side of Glanfield Street between the ELP
MA35477 and the Forcaz automotive workshop; and
2. Hatched line marking be installed in that space immediately to the east of the
mechanic shop (as shown in the diagram) to prevent any vehicle from parking.

6. Works Zones
Construction sites often involve the use of trucks, cranes and other large vehicles.
Without special parking provision, the positioning of such vehicles, close to these sites,
can cause significant problems for local residents or businesses. It is for this reason
that the Council requires the creation of Works Zones at major construction sites.
Once the project is completed the Works Zone is removed.
Accordingly, it is recommended that Works Zones be installed, or removed, at the
locations detailed within the following table:

7. Parking Control Signage At Intersections (AD)
The Council regularly receives requests for action to be taken with regard to vehicles
being parked illegally at intersections. Such vehicles block sightlines to and from
vulnerable pedestrians or bike riders. They can also obscure motorists’ views of
approaching vehicles, and, they can create difficulties for fire engines, garbage trucks
or other large service vehicles which need to access the neighbourhood.
To ensure compliance with the legally mandated parking prohibitions at intersections,
it is recommended that No Stopping signage be installed as per the following table:

have this matter investigated.
