COUNCIL MINUTESTUESDAY 26 FEBRUARY 2013CR13.5DODD STREET - REVIEW OF FOOTPATH WORKS IN 2012/13 BUDGETPURPOSE OF REPORT:To review the adopted budget works for upgrading of footpaths and pedestrian access in DoddStreet as listed in the 2012/13 Budget.BACKGROUND:Four footpath projects in Dodd Street are funded in the 2012/13 Budget:-1. Dodd Street (Daglish - Harborne) north side. New path 2.0 metres wide - $12,000;2. Dodd Street (Daglish - Herdsman) south side. Replace 1.5 metres slab path - $13,500;3. Dodd Street (Daglish - Harborne) south side. Replace 1.5 metres slab path - $11,000;and4. Dodd Street (Harborne - end) south side. New shared path - $70,000.An email from a resident in Dodd Street was sent to the Mayor and Wembley Ward ElectedMembers on 28 November 2012 with various requests regarding Dodd Street betweenHarborne Street and Herdsman Parade. One of the requests was for the provision of trafficcalming to address the issue of speeding vehicles and a pedestrian crossing refuge becausethe road is 11 metres wide. It was suggested that these works should be carried out inconjunction with the new footpath proposed for the north side of Dodd Street between HarborneStreet and Daglish Street.DETAILS:Dodd Street, between Harborne Street and Herdsman Parade, is 11 metres wide and has aslab footpath along the southern verge.The latest traffic count carried out in June 2009 for the section of Dodd Street betweenHarborne Street and Daglish Street provided the following results:-• Total traffic: 623 vehicles/day;• Traffic travelling west: 294 vehicles /day with 85% speed of 64.4 km/h; and• Traffic travelling east: 329 vehicles / day with 85% speed of 46.1 km/h.The 85 th percentile speed of 64.4km/h in the west direction is significantly higher than thespeed limit of 50km/h and this supports the complaint that there is a high proportion of throughtraffic. However, there are approximately 50 homes primarily serviced by this section of DoddStreet and therefore the volume of local traffic is expected to be approximately 500vehicles/day. In addition, the traffic flow is approximately equal in both directions and thissuggests that it is not being used much as a "rat-run" by through traffic.Dodd Street is part of the NW23 bicycle route in the Perth Bicycle Network Plan and connectsthe shared path adjacent to Jon Sanders Drive to the shared paths adjacent to MitchellFreeway. The latest "Super Tuesday" bicycle count on Tuesday, 6 March 2012 between 7amand 9am recorded 148 cyclists using this route.H:\CEO\GOV\COUNCIL MINUTES\13 MINUTES\FEBRUARY 2013\C CR.DOCX 140
