Glen Forrest Precinct Plan - Shire of Mundaring Glen Forrest Precinct Plan - Shire of Mundaring
A safe and efficient road network is essential for the successful functioning of theGlen Forrest Village. A previous traffic study of Glen Forrest (1985) identifiedimprovements in the Precinct but many of these recommendations were notimplemented. To justify any proposals for traffic calming, vehicle counts mustoccur. However, the land use analysis of the Precinct has identified some areaswhere the road network could be improved.Guideline M1:Provide a safe and efficient road network within thePrecinct providing ready access to the local centres,community facilities and recreational areas bydiscouraging through traffic where possible.(Engineering).Strategy 26: A local area traffic management plan for the Precinct beprepared which addresses matters including but notlimited to:a) how to best achieve Guideline M1; andb) provision of a roundabout at the intersection ofRailway Parade and Hardey Road. (Engineering)Strategy 27: Investigate the status of the Right of Way behind Lots 10,13, 14 and 27 McGlew Road with the view to closing andamalgamating it with adjoining lots(Engineering/Planning).5.6.2 Pedestrian & Cycle PathsIt is essential that pedestrian and cycle networks link schools, community facilities,public open space and shopping areas. The Shire’s Engineering Department hasprepared a draft Dual Use Path/Footpath Programme for Glen Forrest whichgenerally achieves this aim (refer Plan 4). Some minor additional linkages wouldstrengthen this network with the provision of cycle racks at suitable locations suchas shopping areas and public open spaces.Guideline M2:Continue to implement the Shire’s Dual Use/FootpathProgramme for Glen Forrest as the Precinct’spreferred pedestrian and cycle network subject to thefollowing modifications:a) provision of a dual use path along Glen ForrestDrive between Tillbrook and Smith Streets (GlenForrest Primary School frontage);b) upgrading/creation of dual use path on GreatEastern Highway between McGlew and HardeyRoads.c) link footpaths as appropriate to achieve acontinuous local heritage trail.

Strategy 28: That the Shire’s Engineering Department be requested toprovide additional dual use path linkages as identified inGuideline M2 of its Dual Use/Footpath Programme forGlen Forrest (Engineering).Strategy 29: That cycle ranks be provided in the two Local Centresand Public Open Space areas. (Engineering)5.7 Public EducationGenerally, a Precinct Plan has to be user friendly to the general community. Inorder to reach the target audience (the landowners in the Precinct), an easy toread information brochure be produced based on the principles of the PrecinctPlan once it has been adopted.Strategy 30: That an explanatory document/information brochureoutlining the principles of the Precinct Plan be preparedand made available to all landowners and prospectivehomebuilders and designers within the Precinct(Planning).GLEN FORREST VILLAGE CENTRE PRECINCT PLAN24
