3.4 Traffi c and TransportAccessThe site, whilst being somewhat removed from the nearest railway stations, is neverthelesswell located for the establishment of the Precinct that is connected to rail, bus and bicyclenetworks as well as businesses in the local area.The road system would appear to have signifi cant capacity to underpin further development,however future development will need to be tested to estimate the additional traffi cgeneration and distribution, and the requirements of the road network, particularly at themain entry into the Precinct.John Rice Avenue is an arterial road in the care and control of DTEI and provides connectionbetween Main North Road and Phillip Highway that connects Elizabeth Regional Centre andSalisbury Town Centre. Haydown Road is a distributor level road in the care and control ofthe City of Playford, and Oldham Road, Trembath Road and Mark Road are all local roads.Refer Figure 3.9.The main hospital entry and at-grade car park is accessed from Oldham Road, and therecently constructed multi-storey car park for staff and visitors has its entrance off MarkRoad. The majority of staff and visitors access these locations from the junction of John RiceAvenue and Haydown Road.The junction of John Rice Avenue and Haydown Road has been classifi ed as a BlackSpot. The Department for Transport Energy and Infrastructure (DTEI) prepared a traffi csignal design at this junction that includes a sheltered right turn into Haydown Road and asignalised pedestrian crossing. Liaison with DTEI has identifi ed that the benefi t-cost ratio forthis junction upgrade was not met, and several applications for black spot funding have notbeen successful to date.Figure 3.9: Existing Road Networks16LYELL McEWIN HEALTH PRECINCT - MASTER PLAN
The access driveway for emergency vehicles is off of Oldham Road and separated fromother traffi c. It is accessed in most instances via Haydown Road. The Emergency accessroute must not be compromised with any future development or modifi cations to theroadway.In the design workshop, Haydown Road was identifi ed as being a Main Street, and TrembathRoad a central spine constructed as a shared zone.Car ParkingThere are currently 1,780 car parks on the site (Refer Figure 3.10) comprising:• 1,254 spaces in the recently constructed multi-deck; and• 526 at-grade spacesStage C works include the removal of the car park adjacent to John Rice Avenue. This willresult in a total of 1,550 off-street car parks at the end of stage C works. The Multi-deck carpark currently has a 70% utilisation rate at the peak (890 cars parked). Even though thereare spaces remaining, there is signifi cant all day parking in the surrounding streets. A spotsurvey counted over 100 cars parked on near streets and it is expected that most of theseare staff. This may be a result of the ease of on-street parking or the avoidance of the fees inthe multi-deck.A previous traffi c report by Shane P. Foley & Associates, August 2010 identifi ed that therewould be a parking shortfall of around 100 spaces on the hospital grounds after completionof Stage C. The report suggested that parking in the street be maintained to cover thisshortfall. Therefore, consideration of how on-street parking is utilised and managedthroughout the Health Precinct is critical. It should be noted that the parking estimates in thereport were based on broad data that was available and should be reassessed with moreaccurate data input.Figure 3.10: Car parking (after Stage C)LYELL McEWIN HEALTH PRECINCT - MASTER PLAN 17
