CR12.116 ALDERBURY STREET - KERBSIDE PARKING AMENDMENTS ADJACENT<br />
ALDERBURY RESERVE<br />
PURPOSE OF REPORT:<br />
To review kerbside parking restrictions in Alderbury Street adjacent to Alderbury Street<br />
Reserve from Lichendale Street/Meagher Drive to Oceanic Drive.<br />
BACKGROUND:<br />
In conjunction with the redevelopment <strong>of</strong> the Perry Lakes Stadium site, a number <strong>of</strong> traffic<br />
management initiatives have been implemented to the adjoining streets <strong>of</strong> the new<br />
subdivision on Alderbury Street.<br />
The section <strong>of</strong> Alderbury Street from Lichendale Street/Meagher Drive to Oceanic Drive will<br />
modified by the introduction <strong>of</strong> speed reducing plateaus and road width narrowing to create<br />
both active and passive reduced speed environment. The road narrowing has <strong>of</strong>fered the<br />
opportunity to create a series <strong>of</strong> parking embayments opposite the residential properties<br />
adjacent to Alderbury Street Reserve. The construction plan was approved by <strong>Council</strong> in<br />
report CR11.126 October 2011. A copy <strong>of</strong> Plan E170 10 08 is included in the report<br />
attachment.<br />
DETAILS:<br />
When the construction works were approved in October 2011, no revised parking restrictions<br />
were addressed for Alderbury Street.<br />
The existing parking restrictions are:-<br />
1. North and East side - "No Parking" with "No Stopping" at each road intersection for the<br />
full section between Lichendale Street and Oceanic Drive.<br />
2. South and West side - "No Parking" restriction between Meagher Drive and Oceanic<br />
Drive adjacent to the Perry Lakes Reserve for the total length except 160 meters<br />
between house number 140/142 and the south side <strong>of</strong> Oakdale Street intersection<br />
opposite house number 146.<br />
Proposed Restrictions<br />
It is not proposed to amend existing parking restrictions on the North and East side <strong>of</strong><br />
Alderbury Street between Lichendale Street and Oceanic Drive.<br />
On the South and Western sides <strong>of</strong> Alderbury Street between Meagher Drive and Oceanic<br />
Drive, it is proposed to remove all parking restrictions to the new embayed parking zones.<br />
These zones are detailed on plan E170 10 08 and highlighted in yellow in the report<br />
attachment.<br />
This proposal was endorsed at a public meeting <strong>of</strong> adjacent residents on 27 July 2011 and<br />
confirmed by a multi signature letter from adjacent residents on 28 July 2011.<br />
