driveway accesses required would be likely to result in the removal of much of this vegetation. Instead, the UGP proposes the retention of some of the existing rural roads as tree-lined lanes for walking and cycling that are integrated into the design of the collector road network. These tree-lined lanes will retain the rural character of the area and form part of a walking and cycling grid connected with the circuit around Barwon River, Armstrong and Waurn Ponds Creeks, described above, to offer numerous alternatives for attractive leisure circuits. Road crossings of vegetated roadways should be minimal in width and spacings. ARMSTRONG CREEK URBAN GROWTH PLAN / VOLUME 1 (ADOPTED 13 MAY 2008, AMENDED MAY 2010) 90
4.7.3 PRINCIPLES – OPEN SPACE AND RECREATION The following principles should guide the development of the Armstrong Creek growth area: P 7.1 An indoor leisure centre would ideally be provided in the Major Activity Centre, including a privately-operated lap pool and gymnasium. P 7.2 Indoor sports stadia would ideally be provided with each of the two government secondary schools, each containing two basketball courts. P 7.3 At least 10% of subdividable land within the growth area should be provided as unencumbered public open space in residential precincts. P 7.4 Two regional sporting facilities should be provided, one each of at least 8 and 12 hectares consisting of multi-purpose sports reserves with the potential to accommodate soccer pitches, football/ cricket ovals, etc, and located close to good public transport, the recreational trail network (see below), and proposed retarding basins to minimise the cost of using stormwater runoff for irrigation. P 7.5 Public sports grounds should be shared between schools and the wider community. Co-located ovals will create more manageable facilities. The sports grounds should be multi-purpose, irrigated playing fields, able to be used for a variety of sports. Where possible, harvested stormwater should be used for irrigating the fields, rather than potable water. P 7.6 Small local parks of at least 0.5 hectares each, containing play equipment, should be provided throughout the residential areas in accordance with Clause 56 of the Greater Geelong Planning Scheme. P 7.7 The existing and new watercourses and their associated floodplains should be revegetated to provide opportunities for people to experience nature and ‘escape’ from the urban environment. These also contain most of the remnant native vegetation and indigenous cultural heritage sites in the growth area. P 7.8 A regional scale conservation park should be created at the eastern end of Armstrong Creek around existing Stewarts Road Reserve, taking in Hooper’s Paddock, adjacent south and west of Horseshoe Bend Road, Armstrong Creek between Torquay Road and Batten Road and the Geelong Crematorium/ Cemetery. This consolidates one of the largest blocks of remnant native vegetation. Much of it is ARMSTRONG CREEK URBAN GROWTH PLAN / VOLUME 1 (ADOPTED 13 MAY 2008, AMENDED MAY 2010) 91
