COVID-19
IMPORTANT NOTICE: In order to protect the health of members of our community, the representatives of
other agencies and Council staff members, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Traffic Committee
meetings are being undertaken as remote meetings - using MS Teams. The meeting starts at 9.30am.

Any members of the community, wishing to make representations regarding a matter listed within the Traffic
Committee Agenda, must email the Council (council@randwick.nsw.gov.au) at least 24 hours prior to the
meeting. Details on how to join the meeting would then be provided.

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 Transport for NSW (TfNSW), 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 Transport for NSW
     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, Transport for NSW, 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 Transport for NSW or the Minister for Roads.
-    If the Police or Transport for NSW 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.

                                            Randwick City Council            1300 722 542

                    South Coogee (C)

An analysis of the Transport for NSW (TfNSW) provided crash data, between July 2015 and June 2020, for
Bundock Street between Elphinstone Road and Hendy Avenue, South Coogee, reveals that four crashes
have occurred at this section of road. Two of these crashes were due to the vehicles crossing to the wrong
side of the road and two were ‘off carriageway to object crashes (RUM Code 73).

Three of the crashes were characterised by vehicles travelling east and one was travelling west with three of
the crashes occurring in dry conditions and one was in wet conditions; two of the vehicles were characterised
by over-speeding.

It is considered that chevrons and curve warning signage and “Reduce Speed When Wet” signage should
be installed on the north eastern corner and south western corner of Bundock Street (as shown in the Figure
1), South Coogee. This would alert motorists to proceed with caution around the bends and travel at a safer
speed.

                                   Figure 1 - 118 Bundock Street, South Coogee

 Recommendation

 That chevron markers and Slippery When Wet warning signs are installed on approach to the bends
 near 118 Bundock Street, Randwick, to alert motorists to the road conditions.

Concerns have been raised by the Police, regarding a large number of vehicles turning into Alison Road,
from King Street, Randwick. The King Street slip lane is an ‘STA & Authorised Vehicles Excepted’ One
Way access, from Alison Road into King Street.

The following signage is proposed to improve safety and adherence of the One-Way restriction at King
Street, Randwick.

Traffic and Parking Issues near Rainbow Street Public School

Following consultation with the Parents and Citizens Association from Rainbow Street Public School, a
number of issues have been referred to the Traffic Committee for consideration.

Below is a summary of these matters, with a relevant response:

1. Extension of existing Rainbow Street Kiss and Go zone adjacent to Paine Reserve

    Rainbow Street is not managed by Randwick Council as it is a state road and is managed by Transport
    for NSW (TfNSW). The Council has no objection to a 36m westerly extension of the existing No
    Parking, 8:00am-9:30am, 2:30pm-4:00pm, Monday to Friday, “Kiss and Go” zone. Accordingly, a
    request will be forwarded to TfNSW, for it to consider such an extension.

2. Installation of double yellow lines to make three point turns across Rainbow Street illegal.

    Rainbow Street is not managed by Randwick Council as it is a state road and is managed by Transport
    for NSW (TfNSW). The Council has no objection to TfNSW considering the installation of double
    separation lines along this part of Rainbow Street. Accordingly, a request will be forwarded to TfNSW,
    for it to consider such a facility.

3. Cars turning right from Paton Street onto Rainbow Street is unsafe as they push their way in front of
   those turning from Rainbow Street into Paton Street; and students need to cross Paton Street with no
   access to any form of safe crossing.

    An examination of the most recent crash data indicates that this intersection is performing well, from a
    road safety perspective. Observations have indicated that there is, from time-to-time, localised
    congestion. However, such congestion necessitates that motorists travel at relative low speeds.
    These low speeds reduce the likelihood of any incidents occurring and reduce the level of trauma if an
    incident does occur. Accordingly, it is recommended that a Right Turn ban not be installed at this
    intersection.

4. Increased volumes of traffic due to cars turning right from Rainbow Street to get through to Barker
   Street as turning right onto Anzac Parade at the old roundabout is no longer an option.

    Throughout Sydney there is a general increase in traffic flow over the years. Rainbow Street is a state
    arterial road connecting two other state roads (Anzac Parade and Avoca Street). It will always carry a
    significant amount of traffic. A better explanation is required of the concerns which have been raised.

5. Young Street /Fennelly Street
    a. The width of the installed footpath does not enable parents, prams, or students to walk together.
       People are unable to walk two abreast. Safety recommendations suggest children should hold
       their parents’ hands until 10 years old but there is no capacity to do this due to the width of the
       footpath.
    b. There is no verge – the footpath runs adjacent to the kerb. If anyone steps off the footpath they
       are on the road.
    c. The corner where Young Street becomes Fennelly Street is a blind corner for cars due to the
       fence installed by the developer right up to the gutter and apex of the corner.
    d. No pedestrian crossing access for students who need to access the western side of Young Street
       and other streets off Young Street to the west.
    e. Stage 2 construction of the Newmarket site will increase traffic, pedestrians and construction
       vehicles thus posing increased risk to pedestrian safety.
    f. Stage 2 of the development will lead to increased traffic in the area as residents access their
       homes via Young and Fennelly Streets.

      g. Young/Fennelly Street is being used by cars to bypass the lights at Barker and Botany Streets
         (used as a rat run).

    The road layout of Young Street and Fennelly Street has been installed in accordance with the
    approved development plans. Additionally, Fennelly Street is not yet a public road and is not in
    Council’s control. Accordingly, the Council cannot, at this time, undertake any action upon Fennelly
    Street. However, an examination of the approved road layout and possible improvements (including a
    widening of the southern footpath) will be undertaken.

6. Speed limit is not 40km/h as per areas around schools

    Speed limits on public roads are not managed by Randwick Council. Speed limits are managed by
    Transport for NSW (TfNSW). The Council will make representations to TfNSW seeking implementation
    of a 40km/h School Zone speed limit, for the rear of the school, in parts of Young Street and Fennelly
    Street.

7. Previously there was a Kiss & Drop zone on Young Street prior to the construction of the Newmarket
   development

    The previous informal arrangement was an ad hoc situation whereby parents delivered children to the
    cul-de-sac end of Young Street. If the school is in agreeance, the Council would support the
    installation of a 55 metre “Kiss and Go” zone along the southern side of Fennelly Street (from the
    school gate to the driveway opposite Jane Street.

8. The following items have also been raised by the P&C Association and can be discussed at the Traffic
   Committee meeting
    a. a Kiss and Go program operated by the school
    b. a set of signals at Botany and Rainbow to control the flow of traffic
    c. more pedestrian crossings (the two outstanding on Sturt have been earmarked for a few years)
    d. Council to record the volume of traffic on the streets I earmarked in our list to Council last
         October to see whether they justify a pedestrian crossing, or at the very least, a pedestrian
         refuge on those streets, including Paton Street
    e. a red light/speed camera, or otherwise, to increase safety for pedestrians using the Rainbow
         Street signalised pedestrian crossing, as raised in recent years by the P&C Association.

 Recommendation

 That the items detailed within the report be discussed at the Traffic Committee meeting.

 Traffic Committee Report No. TC105/21

 Subject:           St Thomas Street, at Boundary Street, Clovelly (C)

A resident has requested for the installation of a Mobility Impaired Person’s Parking Space (MIPPS) at St
Thomas Street, Clovelly. St Thomas Street between Boundary Street (west) and Boundary Street (east) is
a 9.5m wide, two-way street with unrestricted kerb side parking on both sides of the street. In recent times
the resident has had trouble finding parking close to their property. The property does not have any off-
street parking space, the resident is the owner of a TfNSW-issued mobility card and consequently qualifies
for the MIPPS application.

Currently, a length of 50m double barrier (BB) line separates the carriageway on St Thomas Street,
between the two Boundary Street alignments. The road width is such that there is less than 3m statutory
clearance between the BB line and the proposed MIPPS location.

It appears that the BB lines act as a form of lane delineation more than regulating the overtaking movement
at this location. Hence it is proposed that BB lines only be installed on St Thomas Street at the approach of
Boundary Street and Boundary Street East. Lane lines are also proposed to be installed for a length of 28m
between the BB lines as illustrated in the image below.

This would enable installation of the MIPPS (see Minor Signage table - Item TC114/21.13) at the frontage
of 87 St Thomas Street, Clovelly, without vehicles being parked within 3m of the BB lines.

 Recommendation

 That the proposed combination of BB and broken lane line be installed at St Thomas Street, between
 Boundary Street (west) and Boundary Street (east), Clovelly.

Requests have been made to the Council to install No Stopping signs near an existing pedestrian crossing
in the Raleigh Park Estate at Brompton Road, near Black Lion Place. It is noted that the pedestrian
crossing does not meet the current Australian Standards of AS1742.10-2009 as it has yellow and black
pavement markings. The current standard is black and white pavement markings.

 Recommendation

 That the existing pedestrian crossing in Brompton Road, near Black Lion Place, Kensington, with the
 yellow and black pavement markings be updated to the traditional black and white markings to meet the
 current AS1742.10-2009 standard.

 2021.07.107    D04232315        Signage Parking   Mobility Impaired Person’s Parking Space    RM   Yes

The Council has received a request from the resident of 10 Ainslie Street, Kingsford, seeking a 6.5m
Mobility Impaired Person’s Parking Space (MIPPS) in front of their property. The MIPPS applicant does not
have an off-street parking space. The applicant has a residential parking permit holder for Area KF4, and
the nearest residential parking zone is directly in front of their property which is always occupied.

The requested 6.5m MIPPS will be located at the current residential parking restricted zone (“2P, 8:00am-
6:00pm, Mon-Fri, Permit Holders Excepted, Area KF4”). 6.5m of the zone needs to be replace with 6.5m
MIPPS at the frontage of 10 Ainslie Street as no other resident in Ainslie Street has a residential parking
permit besides the resident of 10 Ainslie Street.

                            Existing                                                Proposed

 Recommendation

 That:

      1. A 6.5m Mobility Impaired Person’s Parking Space (MIPPS) be located directly in front of 10
         Ainslie Street, Kingsford, commencing at the property boundary of nos. 10 and 12 Ainslie Street
         and terminating 6.5m west of the property boundary of nos. 10 and 12 Ainslie Street; and

      2. Remove a 6.5m residential parking restricted zone (“2P, 8:00am-6:00pm, Mon-Fri, Permit
         Holders Excepted, Area KF4”) from the property boundary of nos. 10 and 12 Ainslie Street and
         to 6.5m west of the property boundary of nos. 10 and 12 Ainslie Street, Kingsford.

    2021.07.108    D04252777    Linemarking        ‘Straight arrows’ on roadway           NN   Yes

Concerns have been raised by a resident regarding the perception of traffic direction while crossing Anzac
Parade (southbound) and Franklin Street intersection. Given the existing stop sign control, southbound
motorists turning right into Franklin Street (west) are obliged to stop and wait for traffic flowing east from
Franklin Street onto Anzac Parade (southbound) to pass before proceeding further. The geometry of the
intersection is such that southbound right turning motorists may perceive that slip lane ahead of them is
southbound. If this is the case, the right turn motorists may not perceive that they have to yield to traffic

ensure correct travel movement is maintained.

Notwithstanding the fact that Anzac Parade is a state road under the care and control of Transport for NSW
(TfNSW), it is considered that the following matter should be discussed at Traffic Committee prior to a
formal request being placed before TfNSW. It is noted that the TfNSW representative may be unable to
endorse any recommendation arising out of this item.

Concerns have been raised by a local resident regarding pedestrian access to and from the central median
Anzac Parade car park, between Fitzgerald Avenue and Haig Street, Maroubra. In particular, it has been
noted that the existing kerb ramp on the western side of the northbound Anzac Parade carriageway
(outside no. 863) is regularly blocked by parked cars. In order to keep the kerb ramp clear and to provide
safe visibility for pedestrians crossing at this location, it is proposed that ‘No Stopping’ signs be installed as
shown in the plan below.

                 Proposed ‘No
                 Stopping’ signs.
                                                                                                        N

                    No. 863                                                and from carpark.

                                    Existing Bus Zone.

 Recommendation

 That Council seek the approval of Transport for NSW (TfNSW) for the implementation of a 20m long ‘No
 Stopping’ prohibition, on the western side of Anzac Parade, from the existing pram ramp (outside no 863)
 southerly.

 Subject:           Anzac Parade, Maroubra Junction (M)

A post-construction Road Safety Audit (RSA) was undertaken in March 2021, for the newly installed
pedestrian fence along the western side of Anzac Parade, frontage of Maroubra Junction shopping centre
known as Pacific Square. The pedestrian fences were installed by Transport for NSW (TfNSW) in an attempt
to reduce the number of pedestrian collisions occurring in this area. This item is to report on the findings of
the RSA.

The objective of this RSA is to identify and report on any potential road safety issues that may pose a risk
to road users, such as pedestrian, cyclist and motorist. This audit was carried out under the Austroads ‘Guide
to Road Safety - Part 6: Road Safety Audit 2009’ by auditors accredited by the NSW TfNSW. The general
audit location is Anzac Parade, between Boyce Road and Maroubra Road, Maroubra.

Below are the findings of the report;

    1. Indiscriminate Pedestrian Movements

         The auditors observed high volumes of pedestrians indiscriminately crossing Anzac Parade away
         from the designated signalized crossings at the Boyce Road and Maroubra Road intersections
         (Picture 1.1). Furthermore, the pedestrian activity was observed to be constant, occurring during
         breaks in the traffic, or whilst traffic was queuing back from the nearby traffic signals. Pedestrians
         crossing randomly across the road is considered a vehicle-pedestrian crash risk. Given the nature
         of Anzac Parade, this is considered a high risk.

         The auditors observed that a large proportion of the pedestrians crossing could be considered a
         heightened risk (elderly, heavily laden with shopping), who may move at a slower pace, increasing
         their exposure to oncoming traffic, and further heightening the risk (Picture 1.2).

         Observations revealed that the main desire line for pedestrians was to and from the Maroubra
         Junction Shopping Centre, either linking to the central car park, or the southbound bus stop on the
         eastern side of Anzac Parade.

                            Picture 1.1                                  Picture 1.2

    2. Car Park Pedestrian Access Points

         The auditors observed that some indiscriminate crossing was directed to and from the pedestrian
         access points adjoining the central median car parking area (Picture 2.1).

         It was observed, that some of these access points had been blocked off by a rail to prevent access
         between the car park and the adjacent footpath along Anzac Parade (Picture 2.2). It is assumed
         that the rails were installed to reduce the occurrence of pedestrians crossing at midblock locations
         adjacent to these accesses, and to direct them to the nearby signalised crossings.
Traffic Committee meeting                                                                            13 July 2021

         That being said, it was obvserved that the rails at some locations has been removed and the access
         points were being heavily used by pedestians. Additionally, more capable pedestrians were simply
         stepping over or under the single rail to use the access points.

                            Picture 2.1                                    Picture 2.2

    3. Car Park access - vehicle entrance and exit

         The auditors observed that some indiscriminate crossing was directed to, and from, the existing car
         park vehicle exits, resulting in pedestrians walking along the access road (Picture 3.1). This provides
         pedestrians with opportunity to cross Anzac Parade away from the signalised intersection.

         The auditors comment that this has the heightened risk of collision between vehicles exiting the
         carpark, and pedestrians attempting to cross Anzac Parade who may be concentrating on the Anzac
         Road traffic.

                            Picture 3.1

    4. Bus stops

         The auditors note that there are two northbound bus stops along the western side of Anzac Parade
         and one southbound bus stop on the eastern side.

         The auditors observed that a large proportion of pedestrians who were crossing Anzac Parade were
         heading to the bus stops (Picture 1.1). This is considered high risk behaviour as it often results in
         pedestrians crossing unsafely in front of, and behind buses. Furthermore, the auditors observed
         pedestrians, at times, rushing across Anzac Parade, running in front of the bus and waving their
         hands to catch the attention of the driver in order not to miss a bus which was stopped at the stop.
         This is considered high risk activity that could result in a pedestrian-bus collision, or pedestrian-
         vehicle collision due to reduced visibility or due to the pedestrian being distracted trying to wave
         down the driver and not paying attention to oncoming traffic.

Whilst the Audit team have tried to separate out individual items for discussion as per the above, it should
be expressed that the common risk shared by all items is large volumes of pedestrians are crossing unsafely
for the length of Anzac Parade, and not utilising the signalised intersections. Thus, simply addressing
individual aspects may not result in significant safety improvements and all issues should therefore be
considered in conjunction with an area wide solution considered.
Traffic Committee meeting                                                                          13 July 2021

Given the finding of the RSA above, it is evident that despite TfNSW installation of the new pedestrian fence,
pedestrians are still crossing Anzac Parade indiscriminately. It is recommended that a more elaborate and
an area wide solution is required to resolve the issue of pedestrian and vehicle conflict on Anzac Parade,
between Boyce Road and Maroubra Road.

It is worth noting that Anzac Parade is a State Road under the care and control of TfNSW, and under the
strong influence of the NSW Movement and Place Framework, TfNSW have a strong desire to satisfy the
need of pedestrian safety in this area. As such, Council seeks to work closely together with TfNSW regarding
this matter.

 Recommendation

 That:

      1. The Road Safety Audit (RSA) findings undertaken in March 2021, for the newly installed
         pedestrian fence along the western side of Anzac Parade, near the frontage of Pacific Square,
         be noted, and

      2. The Council further liaise with Transport for NSW (TfNSW) to quickly address the road safety
         concerns at this location and, in the medium term, consider an area-wide solution to the issue of
         pedestrians crossing Anzac Parade onto the central car park area and vice versa, between
         Boyce Road and Maroubra Road, Maroubra.

Council received an application for a Filming/Photography activity on Bass Street, at Anzac Parade,
Kingsford, which in part, included the periodic stopping of traffic for no longer than 2 minutes at a time, on
Friday 25th June 2021, between the hours of 7am-11am.

Traffic control was requested by the applicant to allow for safe manoeuvres of vehicles reversing into the
median. Accordingly, a Traffic Guidance Scheme (TGS) was created and submitted to Council for approval,
as shown below.

Due to the time constraints, the approval for the submitted TGS has been given. This item is a retrospective
record of this minor event.

 Recommendation

 That it be noted that minor traffic control was implemented within the Bass Street link road of Anzac
 Parade, on Friday 25th June 2021, between the hours of 7am-11am.

Concerns have been raised from several residents of Wild Street and Donovan Avenue, Maroubra,
regarding safety at the intersection. The intersection currently has regulatory Stop signs installed on Wild
Street, giving priority to Donovan Avenue. Donovan Avenue provides an east-west connection between
Hinkler Street and Paine Street, and is along the 316 (Eastgardens to Bondi Junction) bus route. Wild
Street provides a north-south link between Maroubra Road and Fitzgerald Avenue. On-street parking is
permitted on both sides of Wild Street and Donovan Avenue. It is worth noting, that Wild Street, being in
proximity to Heffron Park, experiences increased traffic during weekends due to the sporting activities at
Heffron Park.

Residents have reported numerous near misses to have occurred at the intersection over the years.
Recently three crashes between May 2021 - June 2021 involving towing away of vehicles was observed
and reported by the residents.

The 10-year crash history reflects three crashes to have occurred between 2010-2020, of which two involve
an injury and one that resulted in tow-away of vehicle. The intersection does not meet the criteria for 2022-
23 Black-spot funding as there are less than three injury crashes at the location in the past five years. The
cross-traffic near misses/crashes are mainly due to motorists not adhering to the Stop sign at Wild Street.

In order to address safety concerns and improve visibility of the approaching intersection an upgrade to
line-marking, installation of additional Stop signs and No Stopping signs is proposed as illustrated in the
plans below.

 Recommendation

 That:

      1. The double barrier (BB) lines are installed on Donovan Avenue for 10m, on approach to the
         intersection;

      2. Supplementary Stop signs are installed on the western and eastern side of Wild Street;

      3. No Stopping signs are installed at all four corners of the intersection for a minimum of 13m on
         Wild Street and Donovan Avenue; and

      4. Re-painting of current double centre linemarking (BB) at Wild Street is undertaken on both sides
         of the intersection.

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
construction sites. Once the project is completed the Works Zone is removed (see Works Zone Conditions
of Use detailed elsewhere within this document).

Accordingly, it is recommended that Works Zones be installed, or removed, at the locations detailed within
the following table:

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 road users such as 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:

                                                                                                            .

As reported to the Traffic Committee earlier this year, following an invitation from Transport for NSW
(TfNSW), the Council applied for funding to improve pedestrian safety at 29 locations near to, or along
walking routes to, many local schools. The Council was successful with its application and $4.375 million
was made available to Randwick Council (under the Federal Stimulus Road Safety Program School Zones
project), over a 14-month period, to implement many improvements for pedestrians at 29 locations within
the LGA.

Generally, these improvements relate to the construction of new pedestrian refuges and to the introduction
of raised pavements at existing pedestrian crossings. Additionally, new raised pedestrian crossings are
proposed at two locations and traffic signals are proposed at one of the Council’s known collision sites.

Each of these 29 sites are either near to or upon routes to local schools. The list below details the first
tranche of projects which have been completed or are very near completion:

It is considered that introducing a large number of new, or upgraded, pedestrian facilities, by way of a
$4.375M Federal Government grant, provides a very significant opportunity to support people who choose
to walk within the Randwick LGA. Primarily, these facilities are rightly focused upon walking routes to
schools. However, it is all of the community members who choose to walk that will benefit from
implementation of these 29 new / improved pedestrian facilities within Randwick

In order to maintain momentum with the rollout of these projects it is considered appropriate to delegate
authority to the Technical Sub-Committee (TfNSW, Police and RCC officers) to approve detailed plans as
they are finalised. The plans will subsequently be tabled at the next available Traffic Committee meeting.

 Recommendation

 That, the Tranche 2 and 3 pedestrian safety projects, funded under the Federal Stimulus Road Safety
 Program School Zones project, are approved for installation, following endorsement of the Technical
 Sub-Committee.

The State Government provides regular funding under a number of programs for road safety, pedestrian
and bike riding improvements. These funds are made available through Transport for NSW (TfNSW).
Additionally, Federal Government funding has also been made available for pedestrian safety projects.
Randwick Council has now been successful in securing funding for fifteen projects for the 2020/2021
financial year. The total funds secured by Randwick Council exceed $1,675,000.
