6.9 ST IVES SHOPPING VILLAGE/VILLAGE GREEN
PARADE CAR PARK (continued)
• 110 spaces, in the Council car park at the intersection of Cowan
Road and Village Green Pde; and
• 40 spaces (approx) on-site, within sites between the new Denley
Lane and Durham Avenue (these would be unavailable if these sites
are redeveloped at the same time as the Shopping Village).
These 217 spaces would be more than sufficient to service the needs of
the remaining retail/commercial land uses in the precinct.
Considering the users of the Village Green on Saturdays, there would be
some 174 spaces on street (Cowan Road, Kanoona Avenue, Collins Road,
Memorial Avenue) to cater for the demand, as currently occurs. Conflicts
between the needs of Village Green users and retail/commercial users
are likely to be minimal due to the absence of the Shopping Village during
its redevelopment.
Staged redevelopment of St Ives Shopping Village
This scenario requires management of existing sections of parking within
the St Ives Shopping Village during staged redevelopment.
Impact to parking
Impacts to parking would depend on staging patterns. A scenario
will be considered where the western half of the centre (from a line
approximately extending north from the unnamed lane between the St
Ives Shopping Village and the at-grade car park) will remain open for
trading. The eastern portion could therefore redevelop independently of
the western half. Under this scenario, it is assumed that a supermarket
will still operate within this area.
Strategy
Under this scenario, parking levels B1, B2 and C (approximately 400
spaces) would still be available, in addition to the 177 spaces in the atgrade
car parks near the Memorial Avenue and Cowan Road entrances.
The trading space in the western portion of the centre is estimated to
be some 11,000sqm gross floor area, which could require up to 650
car spaces (depending on retail mix). A shortfall of some 73 spaces
would therefore result. This could be addressed by maintaining a row
of angle parking in Village Green Parade, and possibly relocating it to
the northern side. Some 70 spaces could be made available from this
measure, which would effectively address the needs of the parking
Village. As with the full redevelopment scenario, additional parking
would be available on-street in Cowan Road and Memorial Avenue (and to
a lesser extent, in Kanoona Avenue and Collins Road).
Therefore, if and when an application for staged development is received,
the application could be designed and staged such that enough parking is
retained on-site to support any retail/commercial activities still trading
while other parts of the centre undergo reconstruction. This would
also be included in a construction and traffic management plan for the
development.
See plan in Appendix 5 for details on this option.
