The Arup background study was completed in February 2009 and<br />

examined the existing parking conditions within the centres in terms<br />

of supply and demand (with respect to extent and time), examined the<br />

future growth of the centres. Estimates were made of the future parking<br />

demand based on the likely growth in development at the time. The<br />

background report also considered broad strategies for addressing<br />

parking issues in commercial centres; and make recommendations in<br />

relation to each centre as to how to address issues and provide for the<br />

future demand.<br />

Arup was also commissioned to undertake a Traffic and Parking Study<br />

for the Wahroonga village in early 2008. One of the objectives of the study<br />

was to develop a master plan for car parking in the Wahroonga centre.<br />

Purpose of this PMP<br />

The <strong>Ku</strong>-<strong>ring</strong>-<strong>gai</strong> Town Centres Parking Management Plan expands<br />

on the Arup background study and considers parking strategies in<br />

each of the 6 town centres in more detail, particularly in relation to<br />

land uses, long/short term parking and parking for other modes of<br />

transport. Consideration is also given to ways of managing the potential<br />

redevelopment of <strong>Council</strong> car parks in order to minimise the impact<br />

due to the temporary loss of parking. As the Wahroonga centre was<br />

studied separately, the main parking outcomes of the Wahroonga Traffic<br />

and Parking Study are only shown within this report, with specific details<br />

available in the respective study.<br />
