Determination ReportMACARTHUR 2 COMMUTER CAR PARKSubmission Number Issues raised TIDC responsefencing and pedestrian access to the existingpedestrian footpath on Menangle Road.There are two pedestrian accessways through thefence on the eastern car park to link into the MenangleRoad footpath and one pedestrian access way throughthe fence on the western car park to link into TailbyStreet. The location of fence openings minimise traveldistances.(e) Landscaping should be low height and native tomaintain surveillance(f) Lighting should be at a reduced pole height with lightspill cut-off and advanced tree planting along thecreek boundary to reduce headlight glare(g) The mini roundabout is too close to the MenangleRoad roundabout – should be midway with StoweAvenue to ensure least impact on Menangle Road inpeak hour(h) Traffic study should assess impacts of a multi-storeycar park facility on the road network(i) Traffic modelling should extend up to 2016/2021 todemonstrate potential future traffic growth(e) Landscaping is of low height or higher tree canopy toallow surveillance and is selected from locally endemicspecies (Refer to Condition No. 26).(f) An assessment of the lighting lux contours on the siteindicates that lux levels are negligible at the boundaryto the site. In addition, planting to screen headlightglare will be provided on the boundary facingresidential neighbours to prevent any light spill.(g) The traffic study reviewed this issue and confirmed thatqueuing through the roundabout would be unlikely asmost commuters are arriving via Menangle Road andtherefore have turning priority and will not be queuingat the mini roundabout on Tailby Street in the AM peak.There is also a sufficient spread of the PM peak for thisnot to result in queuing at the roundabout.(h) There is no multi-deck car park proposed for the site.The proposed activity is an at-grade car park.Traffic modelling has been reviewed in accordance withthese forecasts and concluded that a satisfactory levelof service on the surrounding road network would beprovided.
