REPORT TO FINANCE, ETHICS & STRATEGIC PLANNING COMMITTEE

Investment Portfolio Reporting (A03/2211) Report dated 10 April 2013 from the Director, Corporate and Technical Services providing an update on the performance of Council’s investment portfolio for the 2012/13 financial year to 31 March 2013. Recommendation: That Council: 1. Receive and note this report. 2. Note that all investments have been made in accordance with the requirements of


Background / Introduction Clause 212 of the Local Government (General) Regulation requires that Council be provided with a written report setting out details of all money that the Council has invested under section 625 of the Local Government Act 1993 and certifying that these investments have been made in accordance with the Act, regulations, Ministerial Investment Orders and Council’s Investment Policy. The original budget for 2012/13 interest income from Council’s investment portfolio was set at $2,375,000 compared to the actual for 2011/12 of $2,581,336. As part of the Q2 budget review process this was reduced by $200,000 to $2,175,000 reflecting the lower interest yields available in the term deposit market. For the months of January, February and March interest returns have exceeded the amended budget forecasts. Accordingly it is proposed that as part of the Q3 budget review investment income be increased by $230,000 to $2,405,000 which is $30,000 more than the original budget estimate. Interest Income – Current Month For the month of March 2013 Council received $216,430 of interest income which based upon the amended Q2 budget review profile is $14,544 or 7.2% favourable to the revised monthly budget of $201,886. Portfolio Value Council’s investment portfolio, as at 31 March 2013, has a market value of $57,680,927 which represents a premium of $437,276 above the $57,243,651 face value of the portfolio as illustrated in the table below.

Analysis Attached to this report is the Waverley Council – Summary of Investment Portfolio, as prepared by Oakvale Capital, for the period ending 31 March 2013. Financial To 31 March 2013 Council has budgeted interest receipts of $1,632,199 against the actual YTD receipts of $1,796,715 representing a $164,516 or 10.1% favourable variance against the March 2013 year to date budget. To reflect this improved financial outcome it is proposed that as part of the Q3 budget review investment income be increased by $230,000 to $2,405,000 which is $30,000 more than the original budget estimate. This improved performance has been due to delays in Council’s capital works expenditure and being able to secure investment returns that exceeded our forecasts. Operational Plan/Delivery Program This report meets a statutory reporting requirement and a deliverable in our 2010/13 Delivery Program of providing “Financial advice and coordination to ensure Council meets overall budget performance targets provided” including achievement of the stated benchmark measure “Rate of return on cash exceeds UBS Warburg AUD Bank Bill Index”.

Electronic Housing Code (EHC) project (A12/0611) Report dated 26 April 2013 from the Director, Planning and Environmental Services regarding the implementation of an online system for investigating proposed developments on a site and the subsequent electronic lodgement, assessment and determination of Complying Development applications. Recommendation: That Council receive and note this report. Purpose of Report The purpose of this report is to provide an update on the implementation of an online system for investigating proposed developments on a site and the subsequent electronic lodgement, assessment and determination of Complying Development applications. Background / Introduction e-Planning

Recent years have seen rapid growth in the development of Information Technology, in particular the use of the internet and email both in the workplace and at home. “e-planning” is all about utilising the web to replace many of the manual, paper-based actions currently used in the planning process. The key objectives of e-planning are: • improved customer service by providing reliable and easily accessible information in a

timely and cost effective manner; • greater transparency; • reduced timeframes for application approvals; and • reduced risks / mistakes in planning and development. e-Planning Projects Over the last couple of years the Planning department at Council has implemented a number of projects related to e-planning which have helped to streamline the planning process. Below is a list of e-planning projects that the GIS team, within Strategic Land Use Planning has helped to deliver as well as some projects we have identified for the near future. The projects result in increased efficiency of internal processes and a great improvement in customer service: • Corporate and Online mapping systems - implemented; • Automated, online s149 planning e-certificates - implemented; • 3D modelling technology – current project; • Online Development Application (DA) tracking - implemented; • Electronic Housing Code (EHC) project – final stages of implementation; • Electronic Development Application (e-DA) lodgement – current project; • Property based online planning scheme – proposed project; • Online Development Application lodgement – proposed project; and • Electronic Assessment of Development Applications – proposed project.

23


Electronic Housing Code (EHC) Project In 2009 the Australian Government committed $30 million to develop IT infrastructure and software needed in each State and Territory to implement electronic Development Assessment systems nationally. Of this funding, $5.92 million was provided to the Department of Planning and Infrastructure (DP&I) to work with the Local Government and Shires Associations of NSW, to deliver the Electronic Housing Code (EHC) project. The EHC project allows local professionals in the planning/building industry or property owners themselves, to determine whether specified development uses on their site/s can be carried out as exempt development or complying development under the SEPP (Exempt and Complying Development Codes) 2008. If the specified use is determined to be complying development, then the EHC system will guide the applicant to prepare a complying development application and subsequently allow for the complying development certificate to be lodged online. It also provides a platform for council or private certifiers to assess and determine the application, and the applicant can track the progress of the application along the way. Benefits Some of the benefits include:

Improved business processes; Greater efficiency through electronic processing of applications; Reduction in approval times; More complete and standardised applications received from clients; Improved customer service; Clients can lodge their application 24/7; Clients can track the progress of their application online; Greater transparency and certainty with regards to the planning process; Reduced customer service requirements due to the online tool and a reduction in

enquiries to Council staff; and Ability to screen sites for suitability based on land constraint data contained within the

EHC system. Further information can be found at http://www.electronichousingcode.com.au/ Analysis Financial Waverley Council received a funding grant of $30,000 to help to improve systems and processes related to the Complying Development application process. The funding grant will be used for the following:

24


Project Cost Description Data Cleansing $15,640 Includes reimbursement of 263 hours of temporary staff time for the

cleansing of land parcels, as well as the ordering of survey plans and land title searches.

$2,946 Includes the procurement of 1 PC with touch screen monitor for public access at the Customer Service Centre. This touch screen computer will be used to promote Council’s online services.

IT Infrastructure $11,264 Includes the procurement of 7 upgraded computers and monitors to allow for plan viewing online and 2 tablet PCs with mobile broadband to allow for onsite inspections by the development assessment and compliance teams.

Delivery Program / Operational Plan The implementation of the Electronic Housing Code project represents a significant milestone in the facilitation and development of e-planning initiatives, as defined in the Operational Plan. This milestone will lead to an improvement in customer service standards with the service being more customer focused, efficient – both for the customer and council officers, and timely in the delivery of Complying Development Certificates electronically. Consultation The e-Planning team from the DP&I is responsible for rolling this project out to Councils across NSW. Waverley Council was selected to participate in the project after being successful in an EOI in October 2012. At this stage there are 12 Councils in NSW that are live on the system. The GIS team is leading this project in collaboration with various staff from IT, Compliance, Planning and Customer Service teams. On the 22nd and 23rd April the compliance and customer service teams were trained in the use of the software application in preparation of the go live date of 7th May 2013. As part of the consultation for this project, Council will be hosting an industry event with local builders, planners, architects, private certifiers etc on the 5th June (6-7.30pm) at Council Chambers. It is proposed that Councillors and the Executive team will also be invited to attend. A presentation will be made by DP&I staff showcasing the EHC system. Timeframe We are currently on track to implement this project in the current financial year with a ‘go live’ date scheduled for 7th May 2013. Recommendation: That Council receive and note this report. Peter Monks Director, Planning & Environmental Services Author: David Edwards, GIS Coordinator

Bronte and Bondi Stormwater Harvesting Schemes - Efficacy and performance (A08/0204) Report dated 26 April 2013 from the Director, Planning and Environmental Services about the efficacy and operational performance of Council's stormwater harvesting and re-use schemes. Recommendation: That Council receive and note this report. Purpose of Report At the May 2011 meeting Council requested a report on the operational performance and environmental benefit of Bronte and Bondi stormwater schemes. The report was to include details relating to the function of the computer system, time off/on line, water reused, water saved and cost of water saved versus cost of running the system, environmental benefit, and feel good value. It was considered that this would be good knowledge for councillors to have and would act as a valuable assessment tool. Background / Introduction The Bronte Scheme has been operating successfully since September 2008. The scheme reliably delivers 16 mega litres (ML) of treated stormwater per annum. Operation is fully automated using a custom built program logic controller (PLC). Staff are alerted to operational faults and changes in water quality via SMS alarms. The scheme cannot be operated remotely. Therefore all faults must be addressed onsite. Over the past 4 years, the scheme has not been offline due to operational failure or water quality issues for any significant length of time. The quality of the water delivered for re-use, consistently meets Level 1 standard which is highest class for treated stormwater quality. Level 1 criteria requires test results which do not detect E. coli or enterococci in treated water. The Bondi scheme was fully commissioned in May 2012. Since commissioning the scheme has harvested, treated and supplied over 42 ML of re-use water. Operation is fully automated using a custom built PLC with full telemetry control via digital web application on either an iPhone or iPad. Web based system control allows for superior data management, water quality monitoring, fault investigation and resolution. Operation of the scheme is carbon neutral with energy consumption offset by a high performance 12 kW solar power plant located at Bondi Pavilion. Since commissioning in August 2012, the power plant has generated over 21,000 kWh of energy which is greater than the per annum energy demand for operation of the scheme. As an alternative to the proposed bioretention garden, an underground pipe filter system was designed and developed in order to meet grant requirements and maintain open space. Operating independently of the harvesting scheme, the Hydrocon pipe filter system was completed in September 2012. The pipe filter removes gross pollutants, hydrocarbons, nitrates and residual oils from Campbell Parade stormwater run-off, improving the quality of raw harvested water and stormwater discharged at South Bondi. In the first year of operation, the Bondi scheme has been offline for significant periods due to high levels gross pollutants and oil in water diverted for harvesting during rain events. As an approval/license requirement, Sydney Water stipulated that stormwater be diverted

26


unscreened. Pollutant loading in stormwater during rain events has led to numerous operational problems with the filtration and treatment process. Over the past 12 months, Council staff have worked with the construction contractor, to modify and upgrade the filtration process to cope with gross pollutant in stormwater. Filtration problems have now been resolved within the project budget and the reliability of the scheme operation is greatly improved. Despite early problems, the quality of the treated water supplied by the Bondi Scheme has not been compromised and supplied re-use water meets Level 1 standards. The Hydrocon pipe filter has operated trouble free since commissioning, successfully treating heavily polluted stormwater run-off from Campbell Parade. Analysis Basic costs and benefits of Bronte and Bondi Stormwater harvesting schemes are outlined below in the context of financial, environmental and social factors. Financial A summary of measurable parameters is provided in the table below. Bronte Bondi Capital expenditure 433K 1.1 Million Ongoing maintenance cost p.a. (excludes damaged components)

$4,210 $7,040

Re-use water supplied p.a. 16 ML 50ML (estimated) 42ML(actual)

Potable water saved p.a. 12 ML 40ML $ value of water saved p.a. (approximate)

$24,000 $80,000

Energy generation p.a. N/A 26,000 kWh The difference between re-use water supplied and potable water saved is referred to as 'virtual water'. Virtual water is extra water which is utilised given the availability of a low cost, sustainable and abundant water supply. Virtual water has a high social value, helping to further improve and maintain the surface quality in Bronte and Bondi parks. In addition, this increases the life span of turf, reducing turf replacement and improvement costs. The benefits of stormwater harvesting extend far beyond those of the direct volumes of water produced. A key environmental benefit of both schemes is improved water quality at Waverley's Beaches. Stormwater harvesting reduces runoff frequency, volume, pollutant loading, but it is difficult to economically quantify these benefits in a meaningful way. Key environmental and social benefits that result from stormwater harvesting include:

Reduce potable water use. Improved water quality and ecological health. Soil enrichment using nitrogen rich irrigation water. Improved usability and access to open spaces for the community. Increased community awareness of the issues surrounding urban water runoff and

27


use, of the value of water, and water sensitive urban design. The educational value of implementing water recycling for an ‘acceptable’ end use

(irrigation) and at a scale visible to the general public. Without giving consideration to social benefits, lifecycle costing analysis for the Bronte scheme demonstrated that the cost of re-use water supplied by the Bronte scheme is $0.25 per/kL. This cost represents far greater value for money than the cost of potable mains water supplied by Sydney water which is in excess of $2 per/kL. Delivery Program/Operational Plan

The Bronte and Bondi stormwater schemes work towards realising the vision of the Waverley community articulated in Draft Waverley Together 3 and Draft Environmental Action Plan 3 including the following directions:

- E1 Waverley’s community contributes towards the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions

- E1c Minimise energy use in Council operations. - E2 Waverley and its community is well prepared for the impacts of climate

change - E4 Water is used carefully and sparingly in Waverley’s buildings, gardens,

businesses and Council operations - E4a Ensure all new and existing building stock minimise water use - E4b Minimise water use in Council operations and facilities - G6 Council assets are well maintained for their current purpose and for future

generations Consultation

The implementation of the Bronte and Bondi stormwater schemes involved extensive internal and external consultation. This included the establishment of a Project Control Group with representatives from Planning and Environmental Services; Public Works and Services ; Financial Services; and Parks & Open Space Operations and Place Management. Recommendation: That: Council receive and note this report. Peter Monks Director, Planning & Environmental Services Author: Corey Fox

Acquisition of Lot 1555/DP822245 adjoining Bondi Park and Lot 1557 / DP822245 adjoining Hunter Park (A12/0575) Report dated 18 April 2013 from the Director, Corporate and Technical Services about the acquisition of the parcels of land being Lot 1555 / DP822245 adjoining Bondi Park, and Lot 1557 / DP822245 adjoining Hunter Park. Recommendation: That: 1. Council make an application to the Minister for Lands to request Bondi Park Trust be


2. The Mayor and General Manager be authorised to finalise negotiations, sign and

execute the necessary documentation and affix the Council Seal if necessary. Purpose of Report Council approve the acquisition of 2 parcels of land, Lot 1555 / DP822245 adjoining Bondi Park, and Lot 1557 / DP822245 adjoining Hunter Park. Background / Introduction Bondi Park is made up of a number of parcels of Crown Land under various lot & DP numbers. Waverley Council is the trust manager for all but one of the parcels of land in what is known as Bondi Park. South Bondi amenities block site is within Lot1555/DP8222245, which administratively is under the Bondi Baths Reserve Trust (The Icebergs) (see diagram 1). However, Council manages and maintains this parcel of land. Similarly, Hunter Park is made up of a number of parcels of land with one Lot 1557/DP822245 (see diagram 2) administratively falling under Bondi Baths Reserve Trust, but managed and maintained by Waverley Council. The anomalies apparently arose when the Icebergs site was excised from the reserve trust managed by Council in the early 1990’s and extended further than was meant. Comment With the project to refurbish South Bondi amenities block underway, it is necessary to formalise the administration of Lot1555/DP8222245 to Bondi Park Reserve Trust prior to works commencing on site. At the same time, Lot 1557/DP822245 should be transferred. Discussions with officers of Crown Lands indicate positive agreement to redressing the apparent anomalies. Analysis Financial – NIL

Delivery Program/Operational Plan – Accords with strategy C7a “Improve the quality,

flexibility and useability of parks, reserves and other green spaces to meet recreational needs, whilst considering and ameliorating any negative environmental impacts.”

Consultation – NSW Government, Crown lands Division and Bondi Baths Reserve Trust. Timeframe – Immediate.

Bondi Junction Complete Streets Project - Demonstration Projects (A12/0422-02) Report dated 30 April 2013 from the Director, Planning and Environmental Services recommending commencement of detailed design of demonstration projects (pop-ups) showcasing complete streets principles. Recommendation: That Council: 1. Indicate which of the recommended pop-ups are to be implemented (in priority order)

2. Construct and install the designated pop-ups

3. Operate and maintain the pop-ups for a minimum period of three months

4. Utilise the following funding to design, construct and install the pop-ups:

- $20,000 from the 2013/14 Place Management budget

- $30,000 from the 2013/14 "Looking Good" budget

- $30,000 from the 2013/14 Technical Services budget

5. Note that Council will receive a report detailing the Bondi Junction Complete Streets Project once stakeholder engagement has concluded.

Purpose of Report The proposed design and installation of pop-ups is a subset of a larger project called "Bondi Junction Complete Streets Project" (Complete Streets). The Complete Streets project will be tabled at a future Council meeting. The report has been delayed to allow for formal comments from Roads and Maritime Services (RMS), Transport for NSW (TfNSW) and Sydney Buses. The report will recommend that community engagement for Complete Streets commences soon after the report's adoption. Part of the recommended engagement strategy will be to install several pop-ups which will be built examples of the principles of Complete Streets and potentially the location for community drop-in sessions and intercept surveys. Design development of the pop-ups typically takes several months and as such needs to commence prior to adoption of the complete streets report. Hence the reason for a separate report. Background 1. Waverley Local Environment Plan Bondi Junction Centre 2010

The Waverley Local Environmental Plan (WLEP) Bondi Junction Centre 2010 was gazetted on 7 May 2010 and became effective on that date.

In July 2010, a report was prepared for Council advising of the Department of Planning and Infrastructure’s (DoPI) intention to undertake a further review of planning controls within Bondi Junction following the gazettal of the WLEP (Bondi Junction Centre) 2010. The review consisted of several parts, one of which was the Bondi Junction Transport Study (since renamed the Bondi Junction Complete Streets Project)

31


Note that the WLEP (Bondi Junction Centre) 2010 has subsequently been incorporated into the WLEP 2012 (gazetted in October 2012). 2. LEP Acceleration Fund

Council received funding of $100,000 through the DoPI under the LEP Acceleration Fund to undertake the Bondi Junction Transport Study. The pop-ups have not been funded through the LEP Acceleration Fund. 3. Complete Streets

The Complete Streets project approach considers public space in a holistic manner, so as to develop an over arching Complete Streets Framework for the Bondi Junction centre, as well as specific Complete Street designs for each street. It is anticipated that community and stakeholder engagement will follow adoption of the Complete Streets report. Installation of pop-ups will be recommended as part of the community engagement strategy. They will be built examples of the principles of Complete Streets and potentially the location for community drop-in sessions and intercept surveys.

4. Realisation of the pop-ups

In conjunction with the consultant report for Complete Streets, Council officers have prepared several conceptual ideas for short term demonstration projects (pop-ups). The pop-ups are designed:

as short term low budget installations to show how the principles of complete streets would materialise in real life examples;

to house Complete Streets community engagement events such as drop in days and intercept surveys;

to reveal underutilised through site pedestrian links to temporarily increase footpath widths

to aid economic growth of local businesses (i.e. movable alfresco dining pop-up for Spring Street)

to aid economic growth of local businesses via increased visitation to little used areas of Bondi Junction (i.e. pedestrian through site link from Hollywood Avenue to Gray Street) .

to increase the number of potential customers passing shopfronts nearby pop-ups (because people are visiting the pop-ups which they have been alerted to via council funded advertising).

to increase the length of time spent in the Bondi Junction town centre. to encourage a more thriving pedestrian culture to create more attractive spaces in Bondi Junction to increase the vibrancy and diversity of street life in Bondi Junction to increase public art within Bondi Junction to increase the diversity of night time activity in Bondi Junction and as such increase

the sense of safety via attracting a greater cross section of the community out in the evening

See attachment A for visuals of possible demonstration projects.

The concepts were designed in streets without bus services so as to avoid consultation requirements with the Roads and Traffic Authority and Sydney Buses.

32


4.1 Location of pop-ups

Figure 2 shows possible locations for the pop-ups.

Figure 2: Location of possible demonstration projects (red circles and dotted red line) 4.1 Which ideas to choose?

It would be fabulous if all of the pop up concepts shown in Attachment A could be realised. However, it is likely that the funding available will cover the costs of only two or three pop-up installations. Each pop-up has been described below in descending order of priority for construction. Further consultation with adjacent and affected landowners is required before finalisation on which pop-ups will be built.

4.1.1 Moveable Feast - Spring Street:

Install moveable outdoor dining and planting in one to two car parking spaces on Spring Street. The pop-up could be relocated on a regular basis so that every cafe in Spring Street has the option to benefit from the pop-up.

4.1.2 Urban lounge - Gray Street:

The pop-up would be launched in conjunction with the complete Water Sensitive Urban Design upgrades being managed by Council's Environmental Services team (due for completion prior to September 2013).

Install portable street furniture, lighting and public art and invite / support a portable food van in two existing car parking spaces at the southern corner of Gray Street and Bronte Road.

4.1.3 Fun Zebra - Spring Street:

Decorate the pedestrian crossing between Bronka arcade and Eastgate shopping centre. Stage regular events where live music is played when the walk sign flashes.

33


Install public seating and possibly public art and planting in the clearways directly east of the lights.

4.1.4 Hidden Links - Gray Street to Hollywood Avenue:

Install public art, lighting and fun way finding art in the existing pedestrian through site link connecting Gray Street to Hollywood Avenue.

4.1.5 World table - Gray Street or Oxford Street Mall Host a regular night market one night a week for a month. Alternatively host a different theme for an open air event to increase night time activation for one night a week for a month or more. The themes could be world table (night food markets), chalk art festival, Kids and adult movie nights, public art installations, light show installations, band competitions, talent quests and ballroom dancing evenings to name a few.

4.1.6 Wind and light installations

Bondi Junction is a windy place. The umbrella wrecking capital of Australia! A public art installation celebrating and bringing attention to Bondi Junction's breezes could be relocated regularly to show which spaces are more windy than others. This installation could also coincide with Bondi Beach's famous festival of the winds.

4.2 Other concurrent projects:

Environmental Services have received a grant for a water sensitive urban design (WSUD) installation at the corner of Gray Street and Bronte Road. The installation is scheduled for construction mid 2013. The installation has been designed to Complete Streets principles and will double as a showcase for WSUD and Complete Streets in Bondi Junction.

4.3 What is required prior to installation

Detailed design of the pop-ups involves the following tasks: - deciding on preferred pop-ups, - refinement of concept plans, - negotiations with adjacent property owners, - meetings with internal project control group - detailed designs, - possible development application approvals, - costing; - construction and installation; and - marketing

Analysis Financial

Council received funding of $100,000 through the DoPI under the LEP Acceleration Fund to undertake the Bondi Junction Complete Streets Project. The funding was used to commission Roberts Day (and their sub-consultants) to carry out the project. Council staff project managed the consultant and internal consultation at no charge to Council.

The design, construction and maintenance of the pop-ups will be funded as follows:

34


- $20,000 from the 2013/14 Place Management budget - $30,000 from the 2013/14 "Looking Good" budget - $30,000 from the 2013/14 Technical Services budget

Delivery Program/Operational Plan

The design and installation of the pop-ups complies with strategies identified in Council’s Management Plan 2008 – 2012 where it is stated that Council must “ensure that policies and guidelines are in place to deliver good design outcomes”.

Consultation

Internal Staff

An internal Project Control Group has convened and met on a regular basis to provide input to and feedback on Complete Streets and the pop-ups as they proceeded. The following positions were represented on the project control group:

Bianca Simpson, Open Space Planning Manager, Waverley Council Chris Bath, Senior Community Worker, Waverley Council Emily Scott, Divisional Manager, Environmental Services, Waverley Council Geoff Garnsey, Manager Transport and Development, Waverley Council Lorna Bussell, Divisional Manager, Place Management, Waverley Council Lee Kosnetter, Executive Planner, Waverley Council Wayne Williamson, DoPI Peter Monks, Director, Planning & Environmental Services , Waverley Council Dan Joannides, Divisional Manager, Technical Services, Waverley Council George Bramis, Divisional Manager, Strategic Planning, Waverley Council Ian Mead, Divisional Manager, Finance & Information Systems & Services, Waverley

Council Greg Worner, Divisional Manager, Business, Services & Property, Waverley Council

The pop-ups were well received by all attendees.

Internal staff, Councillors, key transport bodies, neighbouring council staff

The consultants facilitated two consultation sessions attended by internal council staff, Councillors, representatives of the Department of Planning and key government and non-government transport stakeholders

The second presentation session was held on 15 March 2013 and included presentation of the pop-up concepts. The pop-ups were well received by Councillors and all attendees. Department of Planning and Infrastructure

The review is a joint venture. As such representatives of the Department of Planning and Infrastructure have been integral throughout the process and are supportive of installation of the pop-ups.

35


Traffic committee Complete Streets was presented to the Traffic committee on 28 March 2012. The pop-up concepts were well received. The traffic committee were generally supportive of pop-ups located on streets containing no bus routes. Timeframe The pop-ups would be installed to coincide with community engagement for the Bondi Junction Complete Streets Project. It is likely that the project will be considered at the Council meeting in August or September 2013. The pop-ups will therefore be scheduled for installation installed in September or October 2013.

Recommendation: That Council: 1. Indicate which of the recommended pop-ups are to be implemented (in priority order);

2. Construct and install the designated pop-ups.

3. Operate and maintain the pop-ups for a minimum period of three months.

4. Utilise the following funding to design, construct and install the pop-ups –

a. $20,000 from the 2013/14 Place Management budget

b. $30,000 from the 2013/14 "Looking Good" budget

c. $30,000 from the 2013/14 Technical Services budget

5. Note that Council will receive a report detailing the Bondi Junction Complete Streets Project once stakeholder engagement has concluded.

Draft Waverley Bike Plan (A11/0612) Report dated 30 April 2013 from the Director, Planning & Environmental Services about the Draft Waverley Bike Plan which specifies a package of infrastructure and behavioural strategies to improve the environment for cycling in the Waverley LGA. The Draft Waverley Bike Plan has been prepared in accordance with the actions specified by the Waverley Transport Plan. Recommendation: That Council: 1. Exhibit the Draft Waverley Bike Plan with public submissions closing on Friday 5 July

2013.

2. Receive a report with the outcomes of the public exhibition period in August 2013. 3. Implement the recommendations 1 – 5 as outlined in Table 1 in this report.

Purpose of Report

The purpose of this report is to brief Council on bike planning in Waverley, provide an overview of the Draft Waverley Bike Plan and to seek endorsement for the public exhibition of the Draft Waverley Bike Plan. Background The Waverley Council Transport Plan 2011 includes a short term action to review and update the original Waverley Bike Plan which had been completed in 1999. The new Bike Plan will enable Waverley Council to continue to implement a safe and accessible bike network, increase available bike parking and further promote cycling in the local area. Bicycle Usage Since 1996 bicycle usage has grown significantly in Waverley and continues to increase. Journey to work data collected by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) has shown an increase from 0.9% to 2.9% in the proportion of trips taken by bike. Over the past four years Waverley Council has undertaken counts on local streets during the morning weekday 7-9am peak. There has been a marked increase in cycling numbers over this period. 17% of Waverley residents ride a bike each week compared to 11% of people living in the Sydney Metropolitan area. In 2012 Council undertook a review of the 1999 Waverley Bike Plan in coordination with an external consultant. This review identified that Waverley has great potential to increase bicycle usage in the area and generally supported the actual route network of the 1999 network. The Review and analysis of cycling use highlighted the changes that have occurred in cycle planning in the last decade. The 1999 Bike Plan relied on mixed traffic treatments and marked shoulder lanes to designate bicycle routes. Bicycle shoulder lanes are useful in

45


many situations but pose a significant safety risk when positioned next to parked cars. This is particularly relevant in commercial areas and streets with high traffic volumes where collisions with opening car doors are more likely and have serious potential consequences. The Review provided Council with an outline of infrastructure treatments, signage options and behavioural change strategies. Bicycle Strategy The draft Waverley Bike Plan provides an implementation plan for the completion of six priority routes:

Route 1 – Bondi Beach to City via Bondi Junction Route 2 – Bondi Beach to Rose Bay Route 3 – Bronte Beach to Bondi Junction Route 4 – Bondi Junction to UNSW via Queens Park Route 5 – Bronte Beach to Centennial Park Route 6 – Coastal Cycleway

These routes generally follow the same routes as outlined in the 1999 Bike Plan. The significant differences between the two Plans are the treatments selected. Shoulder lanes adjacent to parked cars are generally not specified and there is the inclusion of separated infrastructure along key routes in Bondi Beach and Bondi Junction where the road width enables this. Although the draft Plan recognises that every street in Waverley is potentially a cycling street, the priority routes are supported by secondary routes that utilise streets which generally have lower traffic volume and assist in achieving a comprehensive bike network. The bike plan supports increasing bike parking at major trip generators such as in our villages, Bondi Junction and at our beaches. Bike parking and end of trip facilities are a requirement in new developments with this now included in the Waverley Development Control Plan. Waverley Council will continue their programs to encourage and support increased levels of safe cycling in the area. This is through our regular workshops, courses, maps, work with schools and events. The draft Plan has been prepared so that it has the potential to be implemented in a five year period. A specific timeline has not been included for the implementation of works as they are dependent on external funding sources. This draft Plan outlines the treatments and works required to implement the priority and secondary routes. The first implementation action of the Plan will be the implementation of directional signage along the priority routes and roll out of additional bike parking. This will be complemented with small works that have been identified to improve existing routes and the preparation of detailed designs for future works. Analysis Financial Implementation of the priority routes of the draft Waverley Bike Plan is estimated to cost $4,337,922. Over the next four years Waverley Council has allocated $750,000 to assist in

46


the implementation of this Bike Plan. It should be noted that a significant proportion of this is for changes to traffic signals (which are RMS assets) and separated cycle lanes which require significant capital works and landscaping. The draft Waverley Bike Plan provides Council with a clear implementation plan by which to apply for funding from other government agencies and funding bodies. The draft Plan incorporates key routes of the Inner Sydney Regional Bike Plan which is potentially eligible for Infrastructure Australia funding in coordination with the City of Sydney. Council also identifies the Bondi Beach to the City via Bondi Junction route as an important regional route that would significantly assist the NSW Government meet and exceed their cycling targets. The Coastal Cycleway In 2013/14 Council has allocated $50,000 for the first phase implementation of the Bike Plan. In 2012 Council submitted an application with the RMS for matching funds for this. If the draft Bike Plan is adopted without significant alteration it is aimed that directional signage and wayfinding will be implemented in the first year. In addition to this, connectivity of existing routes will be improved and the preparation of detailed designs for major works commenced. Delivery Program/Operational Plan The action ‘Develop the Waverley Bike Plan and implementation schedule’ within Council’s Operational Plan 2012-2013 supports the deliverable ‘Plans and policies that encourage active travel including but not limited to reducing parking availability and discouraging private car trips’ and aligns with Strategy E1a ‘Encourage and support people to change their transport behaviour and minimise their reliance on cars’ and Direction L7 of Council’s Delivery Program 2010-2013, which states that ‘People frequently walk and ride their bikes, particularly for short trips’, and Bike Plan Implementation is included in the Draft Delivery Plan 2013-17 . Consultation Significant consultation has occurred during the review of the 1999 Bike Plan and in the development of the draft Bike Plan. In November 2011, Environmental Services commenced activities in preparation to revise the Waverley Bike Plan 1999. This included a community stakeholder workshop focussed on issues in Bondi Junction and Bondi Beach, surveys distributed to cycling and general community through events including at Ride to Work Day and Bike Safety Days in Oxford St Mall and physical audits of the key bike routes in the Plan. Further consultation was held in review process with a community workshop and stakeholder workshop that included Transport for NSW, Roads and Maritime Services, Randwick, Woollahra and City of Sydney Councils, and Centennial Parklands.

Internal consultation has been undertaken with staff across Technical Services, Strategic Planning, Parks & Open Space Operations and Place Management. To ensure connectivity with neighbouring Councils they have been consulted during the development of the draft as well as local bicycle user group (BUG) BIKEast. It is proposed that if Council endorse the draft that it will be exhibited for a period of 6 weeks after which a report to FESP will be submitted.

Executive SummaryThe Waverley Bike Plan 2013 has been developed to increase the number and proportion of trips madebybicycle.ThiswouldreducetrafficcongestionandparkingpressureinWaverleywhilehelpingto improve amenity and community health. Cycling for transport and recreation is already popular in Waverley;however,womenaresignificantlyunderrepresentedinthestatisticsasareinexperiencedbikeridersforwhomalackofseparationfromtrafficisadeterrenttocycling.Thisplanespeciallytargets these groups.

The Plan builds on the main routes outlined in the 1999 Bike Plan, but proposes upgrading the six popular commuting/priority routes and providing clear directional signage on these routes. This would provide bike riders with the best and safest route and promote using bikes for short trips. This Bike Plan is based on best practice cycle planning by proposing more separation from motor vehicles on priority routes and moving away from bicycle lanes adjacent to parked cars wherever possible.

Separated cycling infrastructure is planned from the Bondi Junction CBD to York Rd, linking with Centennial Park and Waverley’s neighbouring Councils to create a safe major regional route. A similar treatment is proposed for Curlewis St connecting Bondi Beach to Rose Bay Wharf. This also links via Birriga Road to Bondi Junction.

Threeofthepriorityroutesarealreadylargelycompletewithspecifictreatmentsstilloutstanding.Thesixthpriorityroute,CoastalCycleway,isarecreationalrouteforbikeriderscomfortableridingintrafficand will involve directional signage, markings and local treatments for improved connectivity.

The plan supports the on-going roll out of bike parking at all local destinations, including Bondi Junction CBD, the Bondi Junction Transport Interchange, local villages, beaches and parks. Locations for bike parking will continue to be informed by resident and worker demand and consist of stand alone U-bar hoops and rings attached to existing poles. More secure bike parking in terms of bicycle compounds or secured cages with racks is being planned at key destinations near the Bondi Junction interchange.

The plan supports Waverley Council’s sustainable transport campaigns, including the update, production and distribution of local cycling maps, upskilling through cycle skill and bike maintenance workshops, supporting special events such as Ride2School Day and Bike Week, and running safety campaigns for shared use paths and zone such as in Oxford St Mall.

Waverley Council will encourage and enable young people to ride bikes safely and courteously for transport and recreation. We will build on the high levels of primary school age bike usage, continuing this as they age through secondary school and young adulthood. This will be addressed byencouragingandenablingbikesafetyandproficiencyworkshopsandthroughdevelopingsafeaccess to schools.

1. Introduction The Waverley Local Government Area (LGA) is a coastal area with high residential density in close proximitytoparks,beachesandtheSydneyCBD.Despitethepresenceofhillsandtraffic,thereissignificantbicycleusagebyresidents,workersandvisitors.

This Bike Plan builds on the 1999 Bike Plan and outlines the actions Waverley Council can take to markedly increase bike usage in Waverley for recreation, commuting and short trips. Since 1999, as bicycleusagehasincreased,bestpracticebikeplanninghaschanged.ThisupdatedPlanreflectsthose changes.

This Bike Plan is the result of a 2012 review of Waverley’s bike planning and infrastructure which identifiedclearstrategiestoincreasecyclingparticipation,particularlybywomenandmoreinexperienced riders.

1.1 Strategic ContextThe 2013 Waverley Bike Plan supports the Waverley Together 2 (WT2) community plan, the Environmental Action Plan 2 (EAP2) and the Waverley Transport Vision.

The plan addresses key Council strategic directions, including:

� WT2 sustainable living direction L7 ‘People frequently walk and ride their bikes, particularly for local trips’ and its associated strategy ‘Create safe and accessible pedestrian and cycle links into, out of and within Waverley’ and

� WT2 sustainable environment direction E1 ‘Waverley’s community contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions’ and its associated strategy ‘encourage and support people to change their transport behaviour and minimise their reliance on cars.’

� The plan addresses the EAP2 goal to ‘reduce car use’

TheplanaddressestheWaverleyTransportVisionasdefinedarticulatedintheWaverleyTransportPlan. This is a vision for Waverley where:

� people regularly use public transport, particularly for trips to work and our beaches

� roads and intersections are safer and less congested

� parking both on street and off street is equitably accessed and effectively managed

� people frequently walk and ride their bikes, particularly for local trips

� all pedestrian routes are high quality, safe and accessible

� public transport, cycling and pedestrian alternatives are improved and encouraged

� our bike network and facilities are safe and connected

� all stakeholder needs for improvement to transport effectiveness and usefulness are appropriately planned and delivered

This plan also addresses the State Government Target to double the proportion of local (under 5km) and regional (under 10km) journeys using a bicycle by 2016.

1.2 GoalThe goal of the Waverley Bike Plan is to:

Significantly increase the number of trips made by bicycle so as to reduce traffic congestion and parking pressure in Waverley while improving the health and amenity of our area.

This bicycle plan will deliver cycling infrastructure and programs to achieve this goal.

1.3 StrategiesThe strategies of this bike plan that will support this goal include:

� Providing safe, separated cycling facilities for all ages and abilities, linking desirable, bikeable destinations.

� Deliveranintuitive,easy-tousenetworkwithstraightforwardlegiblewayfinding. � Ensure every street is a cycling street.

� Leverage existing infrastructure funding sources and collaborate with adjacent councils to partner for State and Commonwealth cycling project funding.

� Provide and monitor bicycle parking at bikeable destinations.

� Develop and deliver bicycle encouragement programs address gaps in current bicycle participation.

� Issue regular positive communications to promote cycling for short trips.

� Incorporate cycling in internal and cross-departmental Waverley projects.

� Monitor and evaluate the plan regularly to inform the implementation of new bicycle infrastructure and promote success.

1.4 Cycling in WaverleyMore people are cycling

Cycling is increasingly common in Waverley. A survey of cycling participation in May 2012 showed that participation in cycling in the Waverley LGA is much higher than in the Sydney Metropolitan Area overall and slightly higher than in NSW generally. According to the survey, 17% of Waverley residents rode a bike in the past week and 37% in the past year, in comparison to 11% and 35% respectively for Sydney Metropolitan residents.

Participation varies over age groups; for children under nine, participation rates are very high (43%), but this number falls to just 26% for teenagers and adolescents between 10 and 17. This drops away dramatically in the young adult (18-29) age group with just 9% participation, but the statistics show a slight resurgence in the over 30 age group (17%). See Figure 1 for detail.

Low cycling rates among women

Participation by women in cycling, particularly by the young adult age group, is generally low in comparison with men. In the young adult age group (18-29) for example, just 2% of women cycle whereas 19% of men are cycling. Lack of female participation in cycling is popularly viewed as an indicator of inadequate cycling facilities. See Figure 2 for detail.

More people are commuting by bike

Bikes are increasingly being used to travel to work. Data from four censuses in August between 1996 and 2011 show that while only 87 residents used a bike for at least part of their journey to work in 1996, by 2011 that count had increased to 838. As a proportion of the residents travelling to work, this represented a three-fold increase from a base of 1% to 3%.

The number of people working in Waverley using a bike to travel to work has increased at a slower rate, from 101 in 1996 to 249 in 2011, representing 1.6% of the workers travelling to work on that day in 2011. See Figure 3 for detail.

2. Bike Network2.1 Bike planning in WaverleyCycling in Waverley Council was initially planned through the 1982 Inner Sydney Bike Plan. Waverley Council Bike Plans were subsequently prepared in 1989 and 1999.

The1999WaverleyBikePlanwasreviewedbyGTAConsultantsin2012.Thisreviewidentifiedthatthere was enormous potential for increased cycling for short to medium transport journeys and that the key strategy to achieve this was through separation of cycling facilities from motor vehicles and, wherever possible, from pedestrians.

Every street in the Waverley LGA is considered a cycling street but this Plan outlines an implementation plan for priority routes and secondary routes. Many of these routes already exist and havesignificantamountsofbicycleinfrastructurewhichhasbeendeliveredsince1999.

Figures 5 and 6 show the priority and secondary routes in Waverley. A description of the priority routes is provided in Section 2.4 and proposed treatments in Tables 2 and 3 of Section 7.

2.2 Priority Routes

Route 1: Bondi Beach to Bondi Junction to CBD RoutesThe Bondi Beach to Bondi Junction and Sydney CDB route is a key route and a high priority route. The route through Bondi Junction is already widely used and has potential for increased patronage. This follows Oxford Street, although this plan supplements this with an option to safely detour along Spring St between Bronte Rd and Denison Street using separated bike lanes.

The alternative route from Bondi Beach to Bondi Junction uses Birriga St in the Woollahra LGA as well as sections of Route 2.

Waverley Council proposes a two-way separated cycleway along Oxford St between Denison St and York Rd as illustrated below.

Route 2: Bondi Beach to Rose BayThis is a new priority route between Bondi Beach and Rose Bay Ferry Wharf (in Woollahra LGA) along Curlewis St. It also provides an alternative connection from Bondi Beach to Bondi Junction via Birriga Road.

Waverley Council proposes a separated cycleway along the southern side of Curlewis Street as illustrated below to provide a safe cycleway to Bondi Beach.

DRAFT 6

61


Route 3: Bondi Junction to Bronte BeachThis is an existing route which connects Bondi Junction to Bronte Beach. It provides a safe connection for riders going to Clovelly via the Randwick Council bike network. The route through Waverley Park and Henrietta St is largely complete. Treatment is still required for the Waverley St / Bondi Rd / Council Rd intersection and for the connection to Bondi Junction via Waverley St Mall, which will be delivered under this bike plan.

Route 4: Bondi Junction to UNSW/Randwick via Queens ParkThis is an existing route linking Bondi Junction to the University of NSW (UNSW) and Randwick, as well as providing access to local trip generators including Centennial Park and Queens Park. This route uses existing bicycle infrastructure such as shoulder lanes on Bourke St and Queens Park Rd and extends the off road shared path through Queens Park. The current priority is to fully signpost this route and collaborate with Randwick Council to complete a safe link to UNSW.

Route 5: Bronte Beach to Centennial ParkThis east-west route, which connects these two trip generators, is suitable for more experienced cyclistsasitrequiresmixedtrafficuseofBronteRd,utilisestheexistingshoulderlanesonMacpherson St and involves a hill climb from Bronte Beach. The current priority is to fully signpost this route and conduct further investigations with Randwick Council and Centennial Parklands to identify the best route that runs adjacent to Queens Park.

Route 6: Coastal CyclewayThe Waverley Coastal Cycleway is a recreational route for more experienced cyclists that follows the coastline and forms part of a future continuous coastal route from Sydney Harbour to Botany Bay. The current priority is to signpost an on-road route and implement safety improvements.

2.3 Secondary RoutesDetailsofsecondaryroutesareidentifiedontheNetworkMapandtheirimplementationplanisincludedin Table 3. These routes provide links to priority routes, connections to trip generators and cross-LGA linkages.Themajorityofsecondaryroutesaremarkedwithmixedtrafficstencils(insertpicture).

4 Bicycle ParkingThe provision of bicycle parking encourages cycling to local facilities and destinations. Bicycle parking should be provided in accordance with Australian Standard, Parking Facilities, Part 3: Bicycle Parking (AS 2890.3.1993)

Through the development process, Waverley Council works to ensure that bike parking is included in all new residential developments and high quality end of trip facilities are included in larger developments.

Waverley Council is regularly increasing the number and availability of on-street bike racks in the WaverleyLGA.CouncilcurrentlyspecifiesU-RacksandringsasillustratedinFigure10toprovidesecure bike parking options. Bike parking has been provided at trip destinations such as Bondi Junction CBD, Bondi Road, Glenyar Rd, Hall St strip shopping centres, Bondi and Bronte Beaches andparkssuchasWaverleyPark.FurtherparkingisbeingrolledoutasneedsareidentifiedandthisPlan includes an annual budget allocation for increasing and upgrading bike parking. Requests for additional parking should be submitted to council via the Waverley Council website.

Waverley Council is also planning to establish bike parking compounds at major trip generators such as the Bondi Junction Interchange to cater for and encourage further the use of the bicycle for short trips.

5. Encouragement and Promotion Waverley Council encourages and promotes the use of the bicycle for transport through:

� production and distribution of local bicycle map brochure Cycling in Waverley and Woollahra

� regularly running educational cycle skills and bike maintenance workshops

� collaboration with local businesses and neighbouring councils

� promotingbikeproficiencyworkshopsandsafetraveltoschoolscelebratingspecialcycleeventssuch as Ride2Work Day, Bike Week and Ride2School Day, and

� running safety campaigns for shared zones and paths such as in Oxford St Mall.

� Further development of these strategies is required so that Waverley can:

� build upon the high cycling usage by primary aged children to avoid sharp dropoff at high school, and

� Encourage more women, in particular young women, to ride a bike.

Table 1 describes and illustrates the various types of infrastructure treatments that will be used in implementing the Waverley Bike Plan.

Table 1: Type of infrastructure treatment

Shared paths (in or not in the road reserve)

Shared Paths can be located adjacent to a roadway or through a reserve. They are used by both cyclists and pedestrians, with linemarking and/or signage designating their legal status as a Shared Path and helping to encourage safe use by both user groups. Pedestrians have the right of way.

Thisfacilitytypepotentiallyattracts:enthused&confident,interested but concerned and to a lesser extent strong and fearless, dependent on alternative on-road routes.

Example: Waverley Park, Bondi Junction

One-way pair bicycle paths (in the road reserve)

One-way pair cycleways are exclusive bicycle paths that provide forone-waybicycletrafficoneachsideoftheroadandarecompletelyseparatefromparkedcars,motorvehicletrafficand pedestrians. They are located in the road reserve but off carriageway in the road related area. They can also be located in parks and reserves, similar to shared paths.

This facility type potentially attracts: strong & fearless, enthused & confident,interestedbutconcerned.

Example: Odense, Denmark

Two-way separated bicycle paths (in or not in the road reserve)

Two-way cycleways are exclusive Bicycle Paths that are completelyseparatefromparkedcars,motorvehicletrafficandpedestrians. They provide bi-directional travel on one side of the street off carriageway and in the road related area. They can also be located in parks and reserves.

Thisfacilitytypepotentiallyattracts:enthused&confident,interested but concerned although the strong and fearless are more likely to use the road depending on comparative ease of use.

Example: College Street, Sydney

6. Description of infrastructure treatments

DRAFT 6

67


Bicycle Lanes

Bicycle Lanes are on-road, one-way facilities which designate road space exclusively for cycling. The lanes must be legally signposted with bicycle lane signs. In built-up areas, bike-lanes often run adjacent to parked cars, a buffer zone is incorporated to reduce the hazard when drivers open their car doors. To increase driver awareness, there are usually bicycle pavement stencils and sometimes green coloured pavement.

Thisfacilitytypepotentiallyattracts:enthused&confidentalthoughthe strong and fearless are also likely to use the travel lane. Example: William Street , Sydney

Bus lanes

Buslanesarelegalinstrumentstocontroltheuseofatrafficlaneby buses, taxis, hire cars, motor cycles and bicycles. Lanes may be time limited to say either or both AM and PM peak periods on weekdays or they may operate 24/7. To provide for a comfortable cycling environment that allows buses and bicycles to pass each other, widths in excess of 4.0m are preferred. Bus lanes are typically marked with red coloured pavement. On cycling routes, bicycle pavement markings may be used to emphasise the presence of cyclists.

This facility type potentially attracts: strong & fearless and to a lesserextenttheenthused&confident. Example: Oxford Street west of

Taylor Square, City of Sydney

Contra-flow bicycle lanes

Contra-flowbicyclelanesareon-roadlanesthataresignedandmarked to allow cycling in the opposite direction of an otherwise one-waystreet.Lanesaretypicallyfittedwithgreenpainttoemphasise the presence of cyclists travelling in the opposite direction.

This facility type potentially attracts: strong & fearless, enthused &confidentandinslowspeed/lowvolumeenvironmentsalsotheinterested but concerned.

Example: Martins Ave, Henrietta Street, Lamrock Ave Bondi

Head Start Storage Areas or ‘bike boxes’

Bicycle boxes are line-marked bicycle storage facilities provided at intersections. These facilities are used at signalised intersections, usually in conjunction with a signal for cyclists via a bicycle lantern. The‘bikebox’allowsacyclisttowaitforatrafficsignaltochangefrom the start of the travel lane. When the signal changes, cyclists have a head start to prepare to ride from a stopped position.

This facility type is comfortable for cyclists of several abilities, strong&fearlessandenthused&confidentriders.

Example: Curlewis Street and Glenayr Ave, Bondi

DRAFT 6

68


Shared Road Shoulders

Road Shoulders are one-way facilities which are shared between parked cars and cyclists. To encourage good parking discipline, it is recommended to add a supplementary broken line, but there is no formal buffer zone to guard from potential hazards by opening car doors. To increase driver awareness, there are usually bicycle pavement stencils and sometimes green coloured pavement.

Thisfacilitytypepotentiallyattracts:enthused&confidentalthoughthe strong and fearless would use the travel lane.

Example: Victoria Street

Mixed-traffic

Roads which are linemarked and/or signed for mixed use by motorvehiclesandbicycles.Mixed-trafficfacilitiesaresuitableforroadswithlowtrafficvolumesandspeeds,suchasquietresidential streets.

Thisfacilitytypepotentiallyattracts:strong&fearless.Inlowtrafficenvironmentsmixed-trafficissuitablefortheenthused&confidentand the interested but concerned (the example provided is not considered suitable).

Example: Dalley Street, Bondi Junction

Hybrid shared road shoulders & mixed-traffic

Road shoulder treatments are used in the uphill direction (upper right circle) where the area is shared by parked vehicles and cyclists. In a downhill direction roads are linemarked and/ or signed for mixed use by motor vehicles and bicycles (lower left circle).

Given the constrained road width and topography of Waverley LGA, such directional treatments are appropriate.

In the uphill direction this facility type potentially attracts: enthused&confidentalthoughthestrongandfearlesswouldusethe travel lane.

In the downhill direction this facility type potentially attracts: strong &fearless.Inlowtrafficenvironmentsmixed-trafficissuitablefortheenthused&confidentandtheinterestedbutconcerned(theexample provided is not considered suitable).

Example: Mount Street, Coogee

DRAFT 6

69


Shared zones

Sharedzonesarespecialmixed-trafficenvironments.Zonesarelegally controlled by signs and markings that restrict the speed limit to 10km/h, restrict parking to marked spaces and afford priority to pedestrians. Typically the road environment is designed with special pavements, speed controls and landscaping, with little or distinguishable footpaths.

This facility type potentially attracts: strong & fearless, enthused & confidentandtheinterestedbutconcerned.

Example: Wells Street, Redfern, City of Sydney

Right Turn Lane

The turn lane assists cyclists making a right turn. Physical separation reduces the likelihood of a vehicle incursion into the bicycle turn lane. Cyclists make the turn from the protected lane whenthereisagapinthetraffic.

This facility type attracts: strong & fearless (major roads), enthused&confident(generalurbanstreets)and,wherephysicalseparation is incorporated, the interested but concerned (connect quiet street routes across busy major roads).

Example: Bronte Road

General traffic

Nospecificprovisionsaremadeforcyclists.Althoughmoststreets are suitable for cycling others are unsafe due to high trafficvolumesandspeeds.Whereanalternaterouteisnotfeasible / easily accessible, cyclists will bicycle on streets with no infrastructure.

This facility type potentially attracts: strong & fearless (major roads),enthused&confident(generalurbanstreets)andtheinterested but concerned (quiet streets).

7. Implementation planThe following sections detail the proposed infrastructure treatments to implement and improve the routesidentifiedintheNetworkMap.Table2liststhetreatmentsforpriorityroutesandTable3thosefor the secondary routes.

The total cost of these treatments is estimated at $4,337,922. It is envisaged that these routes would be implemented over a 5-year timeframe, with a large proportion of the funding obtained from external sources. This would be complemented by a regular annual council budget for implementation of the Bike Plan.

Waverley Council | Cycling Participation 2012 | page 1

Cycling Participation Waverley Council, NSW

85


Summary

The 2012 Australian Local Government Cycling Participation Survey was conducted in March and April within select local government areas in New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria.

The survey was conducted using computer assisted telephone interviewing (CATI) and obtained information on cycling participation for all household members. A specialist market research firm conducted the interviews, using interviewers experienced in conducting telephone interviews and subject to training on the survey. Interviews were conducted between 5pm and 8:30pm local time on weekdays and between 10am and 5pm on weekends.

In order to minimise the risk of bias, the survey was introduced as being about travel habits, and cycling participation was asked in the context of broader transport habits. The interview was conducted with the individual who answered the phone, or an individual aged 15 or older who was available if a child answered. This individual was asked about their cycling participation and that of all other household members. This method improved the overall survey efficiency and allowed for coverage of participation by children, for whom cycling participation is greatest.

In the Waverley local government area, 471 households consisting of 1,185 individuals were interviewed.

In the Waverley Council area:

• 16.9% of residents ride a bicycle in a typical week

• 22.9% of residents ride a bicycle in a typical month

• 22.9% of male residents ride in a typical week, compared with 11% of females

• 42.9% of children aged 2 to 9 ride a bicycle in a typical week, decreasing to 9.1% of 18 to 29 year olds

• Of those who rode in the past week, 76.2% had ridden for recreation or exercise while 45.7% had ridden for transport

• 37.9% of households have at least one working bicycle.

In March 2011 the Australian Bicycle Council undertook a National Cycling Participation Survey. The methodology and timing of the survey was very similar and the results have been used to provide comparison data.

86

Results Tables

The following table summarises the survey results. Estimates are provided for each parameter, as well as the 95% confidence interval and a confidence rating. This confidence rating provides an indication of the sampling variability relative to the size of the estimate using relative standard errors. The lower the relative standard error the lower the sampling variability is relative to the size of the estimate. A relative standard error of less than 25% is indicated by three stars, between 25% and 50% by two stars and above 50% by one star. A score of three stars indicates a high level of confidence such that the estimate can be treated with a high degree of confidence. A confidence rating of two stars indicates a moderate level of confidence, such that the estimate should be treated with caution. One star represents a situation where there is very low confidence in the estimate, and it is unlikely to be reliable.
