Mount Druitt Commuter Car ParkReview of Environmental Factors2.4. Alternatives and options consideredA scoping study for potential commuter car parking sites conducted in June 2010(TCA, 2010) identified four potential sites within 300 metres of Mount Druitt RailwayStation. The locations of the sites are shown in Figure 2.2.WestfieldOption 4St Patricks TavernOption 1Option 2Option 3Mt Druitt StationNorth ParadeBeames AvenueFigure 2.2Potential commuter car parking sitesThese sites were subject to a screening process against the following broad criteria:Proximity to the station;Ownership;Accessibility;Site issues/features; andLocal planning controls and zoning.All four options are on land zoned 3(a) Business – General under the Blacktown LocalEnvironment Plan 1988. Car parks are not prohibited developments in this zone andthe height limit is ground plus one level.All options are on relatively flat sites and in easy walking distance to the station.Site option 1 - St Patricks TavernThe site consists of a large at-grade car park which is associated with a tavern locatedto the north. The surrounding area is mostly commercial. The closest residentialproperties are located approximately 100 metres away.The tavern site is in private ownership and may be suitable for shared development,purchase of air rights or purchase of a part of the existing at-grade car park.There are mature native trees throughout the site and along the southern perimeterboundary.Traffic access to the site would be via Luxford Road, Mount Street and North Parade.KMH-2010123a REF Rev 4 doc Page 8 of 116Status: Final
Mount Druitt Commuter Car ParkReview of Environmental FactorsSite option 2 – Mount Druitt Medical and Dental Centre car parkThe site is currently used as an at-grade car park for the adjacent medical centre andis in private ownership. The closest residential properties are approximately 100metres away. The site may suit a future development with commuter parking on topand existing parking for the medical centre on the ground level.There are large trees, likely to be natives, along the northern and eastern boundariesof the site.Traffic access to the site would be via Luxford Road, Mount Street, North Parade andJirrang Close.Site option 3: Development siteThe site is a partly demolished cinema. The property is in private ownership and hasbeen for sale for some time. The site could be used for an at-grade or multi-storey carpark.The closest residential properties are located approximately 100 metres away on theother side of the rail line.Native trees are located along the eastern perimeter of the site.Traffic access to the site would be via Luxford Road, Mount Street and North Parade.Site option 4: Over existing interchangeThis site is located above the existing bus interchange on North Parade. The siteconsists of multiple bus set downs, sheltered waiting platforms and pedestrianconcourses to Mount Druitt Railway Station and Mount Druitt shopping precinct.Bus access and egress to the site is via a roundabout on North Parade.Ranking of site optionsAll options are in close proximity to Mount Druitt Railway Station and have similarfeatures.Site option 2 is the least suitable given the site is currently used by the medical centre.Development at this location would require utilisation of a smaller road (Jirrang Road)which may have detrimental traffic impacts. Construction of the car park would alsoresult in disruption to the sites current use.Site option 1 would be preferred in terms of proximity to the station however this landis not currently available for development. This site may also provide opportunities forfuture retail/commercial activities given its proximity to other commercial/retailpremises. Development of a commuter car park at this location would also result inloss of parking and disruption to the sites current use during the construction phase.Site option 4 was discounted due to constraints associated with traffic access,pedestrian, car and bus conflict, complexity of design, buildability, cost of structureand multiplicity of stakeholder interests.Site option 3 has two frontages which would have positive benefits in terms of passivesurveillance. The site is currently disused, offers the greatest flexibility in terms ofspace utilisation and is also available for development.The preferred site option for the Mount Druitt Commuter Car Park was thereforechosen as site option 3.An assessment of the existing structure at site option 3 was undertaken to determineif potential re-use and/or incorporation into the proposed redevelopment (Opus,2010). It was found that retaining the existing structure would impose criticallimitations on the proposed car park in terms of layout and number of spaces.
