STREET CAR PARK (continued)
total of approximately 58 short term parking spaces would be required.
Strategy
During redevelopment of the site, it is estimated that the following
parking spaces would be available:
• 7 spaces in William Street near the roundabout with Forbes Lane,
and near Pacific Highway; and
• 15 spaces in Ray Street.
This totals 22 spaces, which is some 36 spaces short of the needs of the
surrounding retail/commercial land uses.
In addition to the above, it is considered that the following could be
achieved to increase parking availability:
• a row of angle parking on the western side of Higgs Lane could be
maintained during reconstruction work, resulting in approximately
15 additional spaces. Public domain works in this area could
proceed after the main car park on the site is operational;
• the existing on-street parking in William Street (between the
roundabout at Forbes Lane, and Higgs Lane) could be maintained
during reconstruction work, resulting in approximately 18 additional
spaces. Again, public domain works in this area could proceed after
the main car park on the site is operational; and
• 11 spaces unrestricted spaces on the western side of Ray Street
reallocated to 2hr parking.
These 41 additional spaces would result in a supply of approximately
63 spaces, which would satisfy the short term parking needs of the
remaining businesses in the precinct.
See plan in Appendix 5 for details.
Staged redevelopment of Town Square/Coles site
It is conceivable that the Coles supermarket may wish to continue
trading while the remainder of the site is redeveloped. The staged
redevelopment of the Town Square/Coles site would result the Coles and
Ray Street car parks being impacted, as well as a loss of the commuter
parking in William Street along the railway line.
Within the precinct, it is assumed that Coles, the strip shops along
Pacific Highway (between Ray Street and Forbes Lane) and the site on the
northern corner of Pacific Highway and Ray Street would still be actively
trading during the redevelopment of the Town Square/Coles site. This
would result in the need for car parking for 4,300sqm of retail floor space
and 360sqm of commercial floor space. In terms of parking spaces, a
total of approximately 106 short term parking spaces would be required.
Strategy
To maintain short term parking for the strip shops along Pacific Highway
it is assumed that the ‘complete redevelopment’ strategy (above) would
