The Shoalhaven Traffic Committee is a technical review committee, not a committee of Council under the Local Government Act 1993. The Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) has delegated certain powers to Council under the Transport Administration Act 1988 (Section 50). A condition of this delegation is that Council must take into account the Traffic Committee recommendations.

There are four formal members of the Traffic Committee, each of whom has a single vote only. The members are representatives from:

NSW Police Force
RMS
Shoalhaven City Council
Local State Member of Parliament (for the location of the issue to be voted upon)

If the RMS or NSW Police Force disagrees with any Traffic Committee recommendation, or Council’s resolution (on any Traffic Committee recommendation), they may lodge an appeal with the Regional Traffic Committee for determination. The appeal must be lodged in writing within 14 days of the date of notification in writing. Any action relative to any issue under appeal must cease until the matter is determined. The Regional Traffic Committee is chaired by an independent chairperson and submissions and representations are welcomed from all interested parties.

Council cannot amend a Traffic Committee recommendation. The Council can only: adopt the Traffic Committee recommendation; not adopt the Traffic Committee recommendation, or request the Traffic Committee reconsider the issue.

TC19.25 Bus Zone Relocation - 82 Greenwell Point Rad - Greenwell Point (PN 3545)

HPERM Ref: D19/148099

Convenor: Matthew Apolo

Attachments: 1. PN 3545 - Plan ⇩

Recommendation

That the General Manager (Director Assets and Works) be requested to arrange for the relocation of the existing bus zone from the frontage of 92 Greenwell Point Road to 82 Greenwell Point road including the installation of signage, as detailed in the attached plan.

Details

Council at its Strategy and Assets Committee Meeting of 20 March 2018 recommended the installation of multiple bus shelters throughout the Shoalhaven. As part of this recommendation a shelter was approved for Greenwell Point Road, Greenwell Point, and during community consultation of the location the proposed shelter was shifted from 92 Greenwell Point Road to 82 Greenwell Point Road due to a request from the Community Consultative Body along with increased approach sight distance due to the absence of large trees, and footpath gradients on approach to the shelter being in compliance with the Disability Standards for Accessible Public Transport (DSAPT). Due to the shifting of the proposed shelter location the existing bus zone in the frontage of 92 Greenwell Point Road must be shifted to the frontage of 82 Greenwell Point Road.

The time restriction to the bus zone will be modified from “Monday - Friday” to “7:30am - 10:30am || 1:30pm to 4:30pm || Monday – Friday” which increases parking along Greenwell Point Road in this location, outside of the proposed time restrictions.

A signage plan has been submitted for the Committee’s consideration.
