Request to change parking
restrictions in Wattle Street, Ultimo
Ultimo Public School has requested
for parking changes in Wattle Street to provide spaces for school staff members
only.
Wattle Street is a State Road
controlled by Transport for New South Wales
The
City has requested Transport for New South Wales to consider the request for
Ultimo Public School and investigate reallocating kerbside parking restrictions
in Wattle Street.
Reinstatement of
On-Street Parking on Parramatta Road and Introduction of Load Zone in Layton
Street, Camperdown
An email has been
received by Camperdown Cellars Pty Ltd to request the reinstatement of adjacent
on-street parking along Parramatta Road.
The introduction of Loading Zone in Layton Street, Camperdown.
The City is
currently investigating the introduction of a Loading Zone in Layton Street,
Camperdown to be tabled at a next available Committee meeting. The Applicant
has been advised to liaise directly TFNSW regarding the reinstatement of
parking along Parramatta Road.
An email has been received by a resident requesting for
Ogden Lane to be made one-way (east to west) due to safety concerns.
City staff will contact the resident
regarding the request for making Ogden Lane one-way to improve safety and
reduce the speed of vehicles.
Moore Park Light Rail Station
- Request for Pick up and Drop off Area
An email has been received by a resident advising that since the Moore
Park Light Rail Station has been put in and the buses to the Moore Park
area removed, children need to catch the light rail to school from Moore Park
to Randwick. I and many other parents pick up their kids from the
roundabout on Driver's avenue in line with the Light Rail Station.
On
event days the whole street becomes a Special Event Clearway and there is
nowhere to legally pickup anyone from the Light Rail Station for a few kilometres.
As you can't stop on Drivers Ave, Anzac Parade, Lang Road, and Moore Park
Road. Most of the time everyone just stops anyway as they have no choice.
I
have noticed that all the No Parking signs have been removed and replaced with
No Stopping signs.
Is
the only way to legally pickup or drop off anyone at the Light Rail Station to pay for parking?
Transport
advised that they will not support a Pick up
and Drop off Area in Anzac Parade. Drivers Avenue is controlled by the
Centennial and Moore Park Trust (CMPT), the resident will be encouraged to
contact the CMPT to arrange for Pick up and Drop off Area during event days.
These arrangements should be included in the Traffic Management Plan for events
in this location.

The City has received correspondence concerning a safety
risk when some drivers park illegally or drive too fast in the

The City is currently
