10. Mr R Greenwood 151 Coolgardie Avenue Redcliffe WA 6105

151 Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe Object to Coolgardie Avenue being reopened to through traffic to Perth Domestic Airport. Brearley Avenue is a busy four lane dual carriageway that acts as a main thoroughfare between the airport business precinct and Great Eastern Highway. Coolgardie Avenue is currently a quiet, traffic calmed, residential street with a cul-de-sac, which was closed to remove speeding traffic. The closure of Brearley Avenue in conjunction with the rail link is constructed in 2018-2020 will shift traffic and commercial vehicles accessing an expanding business precinct onto Coolgardie Avenue if re-opened to through traffic. There will also be significant upgrades required to Coolgardie Avenue given it is currently a two lane residential street, resulting in loss of the nature strip and additional land off the front of properties. This would be inappropriate to have vehicles travelling right past the front doors of existing houses. Major works to realign sewage, gas, electricity, telecommunications and water would be required under the plan, which is not justified given other access points currently exist and can be used. There will be financial ramifications for (including rates increases) for the community and WA taxpayers for a project that benefits Perth Airport’s commercial interests. The negative impact on Coolgardie Avenue residents from this proposal has not been adequately addressed. It is unclear how this will affect residents and how any impacts will be mitigated. It is also unclear whether land resumption will be required and how will residents be compensated.

Partially uphold. The DA6 Vision Plan is a broad level strategic plan that is intended to set the scene for the future of an area that Council has earmarked as a key urban redevelopment precinct since 2003. Vision plans do not have the force of law nor rigidly imply ‘like for like’ implementation within an immediate timeframe. Vision plans are not intended to be implementation plans because they focus on the ‘big picture’ as a starting point for the contemplation of the most optimal strategic outcomes. The definition of a vision for an area permits the commencement of structure planning, which is where technical detail of how the vision can realistically be implemented is analysed and test. The technical analysis undertaken at structure planning stage takes into account all factors, including (but not limited to): Land use distribution and the identification of

development guidance, including the allocation of density codes, specification of building heights, setbacks, etc;

The design, hierarchy and function of the road and movement networks, including street design, traffic movements and traffic volumes, cycleways and footpaths, etc;

Civil infrastructure provision (sewer, water, power, telecommunications, etc);

Any required land acquisitions; Implementation and funding arrangements; Economic feasibility; and Potential implications resulting from other major

infrastructure projects, including the Perth Airport rail line, Perth Airport terminal consolidation, Gateway WA project and the upgrade of Great Eastern Highway.

It is premature to undertake detailed analysis of the above matters as part of a visioning exercise. Structure planning will occur as the next stage and have statutory backing through the City’s local planning scheme. Structure plans are more rigid in nature, and community consultation is a legislative requirement.

The Vision Plan identifies that Coolgardie Avenue will have an important future role in providing access to the both the residential precinct of DA6 and Airport West Station. The identification of Coolgardie Avenue for this purpose has been based on a number of factors: Existing traffic signals exist at the intersection of

Great Eastern Highway and Coolgardie Avenue, which allows a controlled movement of traffic into and out of the precinct

The existing road alignment is straight and directly concludes at the Airport West Station site (proposed to be located on Perth Airport land in the street block bounded by Brearley Avenue, Dunreath Drive, Snook Road and Ross Drive)

The road is located on the periphery of the residential precinct and will provide opportunities for increased medium-high density residential and mixed use development abutting the Airport land as an integrated transition between the residential and non-residential land uses.

Coolgardie Avenue is not intended as a substitute for Brearley Avenue as an airport access road (in design and traffic volume) The intent for Coolgardie Avenue under the Vision Plan is for it to be designed as a residential-natured ‘neighbourhood connector’ or ‘local distributor’ road which will have a dual function of providing access to the residential precinct and as an access point to the Airport West Station primarily for the local community. The character of the road that is envisaged as: A single lane of vehicle flow in each direction, with a

primarily painted median Traffic speed consistent with residential

neighbourhoods (50-60km/h) On-street car parking (with appropriate time

restrictions) On-street cycle lanes and footpaths in the verges Traffic calming measures to discourage larger

vehicles and ensure lower traffic speeds Vehicle crossovers and access points from private

property directly onto Coolgardie Avenue to be minimised, strategically located and designed to allow vehicles to enter the street in forward gear in order to promote safety for road users, cyclists and pedestrians.

It is expected that upgrades would be required to Coolgardie Avenue in order for it to function in the proposed manner. The extent of any upgrades will be dependent on technical analysis that is undertaken at the structure planning stage; however the expected works would include widening of the road carriageway, installation of traffic islands and other calming measures, installation of new footpaths, cycle-lanes, upgraded lighting and tree planting. There is therefore some likelihood that the existing Coolgardie Avenue road reserve would require widening to satisfy the road design widths outlined in Liveable Neighbourhoods. It should however be noted that any road widening would be predicated on the redevelopment and consolidation of adjoining properties in accordance with the Vision Plan, and subject to specific details regarding the implementation of the project. Should land be required from affected property owners, they will be compensated accordingly based on market value of the land – this will be determined at structure planning stage. The Vision Plan also intends for the majority of vehicles entering the commercial precinct to use the new interchange at Tonkin Highway and Boud Avenue/Dunreath Drive (for vehicles coming from the south, north and west) and Fauntleroy Avenue (for vehicles coming from the east) given this is presently designed for commercial traffic. It is expected that the use of these routes will be more desirable for the majority of vehicles accessing the train station and the commercial precinct given: Fauntleroy Avenue is further east than

Coolgardie Avenue, meaning that Fauntleroy Avenue will be a more convenient access route than Coolgardie Avenue for vehicles accessing the area from the east.

The use of Tonkin Highway, Boud Avenue and

A7


6


Dunreath Drive when accessing the precinct from the west and north will be significantly quicker given the higher traffic speeds (70km/h–100km/h) and continuous traffic flow from Tonkin Highway direct to the station. In contrast, commuter travel time will be influenced by two sets of traffic lights on Great Eastern Highway (Tonkin Highway off-ramp and Coolgardie Avenue) plus slower traffic speeds (max 60km/h) if access is taken via Great Eastern Highway and Coolgardie Avenue.

Fauntleroy Avenue and Dunreath Drive can be designed to accommodate commercial vehicles and higher traffic speeds given the abutting land uses are commercial.

Detailed traffic analysis has not been undertaken as part of the preparation of the Vision Plan, as this level of analysis occurs as part of the structure planning process. Based on the existing character and nature of development on Coolgardie Avenue, the following milestones must occur prior to the removal of the Coolgardie Avenue cul-de-sac: 1. The progression and finalisation of structure planning

for DA6 (estimate is 2015-2018); 2. Redevelopment of existing properties along

Coolgardie Avenue (unable to estimate as this will depend on the implementation staging identified in the DA6 Structure Plan as well as the individual aspirations of landowners and agencies progressing the implementation)

3. The completion of the Boud Avenue/Dunreath Drive access point and interchange at Tonkin Highway (latest estimate from Gateway WA is June 2016)

4. The closure of Brearley Avenue (latest estimate from MRWA is by the end of 2016 following completion of the Boud Avenue and Tonkin Highway interchange)

5. The construction and completion of the Perth Airport Rail Line and Airport West Station (latest estimate from PTA is by the end of 2018)

6. The relocation of all commercial aviation operations to the consolidated Perth Airport site (latest forecast

A8


7


from Perth Airport is 2024). From an implementation viewpoint, it is considered inappropriate for any through connection of Coolgardie Avenue to be provided prior to the cessation of all commercial aviation operations at the existing Domestic Terminal. The road connection does however form a critical component of the vehicle movement network within the precinct and therefore should be retained. However, additional clarity should be provided in the Vision Plan to ensure that it is clear what Coolgardie Avenue’s role and function is when structure planning is commenced and the road/movement network options are analysed and tested. It is recommended that Council give final adoption to draft LPP14 as an interim measure and make updates to the Vision Plan to give greater clarity in relation to the future of Coolgardie Avenue, as well as the desire for appropriate interface between residential and non-residential land uses.

11. Mr D Somers & Mrs M Somers 136 Coolgardie Avenue Redcliffe WA 6104

136 Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe Object to closure of Brearley avenue and reinstatement of Coolgardie Avenue as the main entry point into the residential neighbourhood and key link to Airport West Station. Coolgardie Avenue is currently a very quiet cul-de-sac with many residents being families and retirees. Coolgardie Avenue will be a more attractive option to access to airport than Fauntleroy & Boud Avenue, and the retention of FIFO activities at the Domestic Terminal site is likely to continue illegal parking if Coolgardie becomes the main through road. Also concerned about the large numbers of taxis buses that currently use Brearley Ave on a daily basis. The opening of the road will create noise, rubbish, stress and an unsafe street for our children.

Partially uphold. Refer to Submission 10 Council recommendation. Illegal parking (current or future) will be policed in accordance with the City’s Local Laws.

12. Mr T Whiting 138 Coolgardie Avenue Redcliffe WA 6106

138 Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe Object to Coolgardie Avenue being re-opened and being turned into a thoroughfare. Brearley Ave is already set up to cater for heavy traffic, and if an alternative is to be sourced, Fauntleroy Ave should be used where there are no residential properties. Coolgardie Avenue has been modified to increase safety and the plan undermines this.

Partially uphold. Refer to Submission 10.

13. Mr R Pearson 124 Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe WA 6106

124 Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe Object to reopening of Coolgardie Ave as a main entry point to Perth Airport. Coolgardie Ave has always been a quiet residential street and was made into a cul-de-sac to stop through traffic. Long term resident of Coolgardie Avenue and therefore have a great affinity with the Redcliffe area as a great place to live. The plan will increase traffic and affect residential amenity. The closure of the right hand turn at Brearley Avenue and Third Street has created impacts on traffic movements and encourages rat running.

Partially uphold. Refer to Submission 10 Council recommendation. A detailed Road Safety Audit was conducted on Brearley Avenue in an attempt to reduce the high number of crashes at the Second Street intersection. This audit recommended eliminating the right turn from Brearley Avenue into Second Street and directing this traffic to the roundabout at Dunreath Drive. The proposed design also included a longer turning pocket on Second Street for traffic turning left into Brearley Avenue, thus reducing the congestion. It is acknowledged that some residual traffic may initially attempt to use First Street but this will be monitored and discouraged by way of signage and local area traffic management processes. Main Roads WA is confident that a larger proportion of the traffic currently using this route will opt for the recently upgraded section of Great Eastern Highway.

14. Mrs L Lewis 145 Bulong Avenue, Redcliffe Support the Vision Plan as it will bring many beneficial opportunities. Vision should be implemented sooner rather than later.

Uphold. Refer to Submission 3 Council recommendation

15. Mr R Waldock & Mr P Martinovich Public Transport Authority PO Box 8125 Perth Business Centre WA 6849

Nil Support the objectives of the Vision Plan. Higher density development around the Airport West Station presents an opportunity to achieve transit orientated objectives. It also provides a relatively blank canvas to achieve a unique and desirable destination. It is important that passenger access to public transport is prioritised. Supports notation of ‘pedestrian friendly’ thoroughfares which should also extend to commercial development on Perth Airport land. Suggest an additional dot point be inserted in Movement Network to ensure that nearby commercial and retail developments do not impede the movement of passengers to and from the station area, through incorporation of highly legible direct linkages. Not support the Movement Network Policy note 16 which refers to bus layover bays integrated with street network near station plaza. Functioning of station requires dedicated roadways for bus circulation within the Station Precinct – this should be amended.

Support and comments regarding high density development noted. It is not considered necessary to amend the Vision Plan regarding the movement network and bus layover area given these will form part of the station design that will be progressed by PTA and approved by Perth Airport. The Vision Plan is aspirational however can be varied where appropriate.

433 Great Eastern Highway & 86 Bulong Avenue, Redcliffe

In order to achieve this more suitable and graduated transition of land use intensity for development adjacent to Great Eastern Highway, it is suggested: Alter the Preliminary Vision plan to depict

commercial use directly adjoining Great Eastern Highway and mixed use development either side of the area;

Provide greater clarity on the extent of landscaping required along the Great Eastern Highway frontage to avoid disincentive for the redevelopment of properties.

Identifying 2-4 storey building height abutting Great Eastern Highway and the existing residential development further to the east so as to provide a physical buffer and an appropriate transition in built form intensity.

Partially uphold. The distribution of land use and interface between commercial and residential land use is determined at structure planning stage. It is however accepted that the structure plan will need to address interface issues and that the Vision Plan does not explicitly identify this relevant to properties abutting land uses on Great Eastern Highway. It is therefore recommended that additional clarity be provided in the Vision Plan to this effect.

17. Mr D Cleverly & Mrs L Cleverly 125 Coolgardie Avenue Redcliffe WA 6106

86, 95, 98, 100 & 102 Kanowna Avenue East, Redcliffe

82 Victoria Street North, Redcliffe 9 The Court, Redcliffe

Support the Vision Plan and objectives / policy statement outlined in LPP14, particularly medium to high density residential development in recognition of the locational characteristics of the area and the potential for the future formation of a transit oriented development precinct. The key elements of the Vision Plan make for an appealing 'urban village' on the land west of that controlled by Perth Airport Pty Ltd. The use of Brearley Avenue to create a central landscape spine leading to the rail station provides suitable amenity for higher density housing as does the retention of Redcliffe Primary School as a vital community asset. Six of the properties owned by the DoH contain older dwellings on large lots, some of which are contiguous. These present as opportunities for redevelopment and may provide the basis for assembling more consolidated land parcels to assist in realising the provision of affordable housing in a form that is consistent with the Vision Plan.

Support and comments noted.

20. Mr H Shehabi, Mrs F Shehabi & Mr T Shehabi 161 Coolgardie Avenue Redcliffe WA 6106

161 Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe Note: Proponent submitted six separate submissions containing similar comments. Object to Coolgardie Avenue being reopened to through traffic to Perth Domestic Airport. Brearley Avenue is designed as an airport access road and Coolgardie Avenue is not fit for this purpose. Traffic using this road will impact residential properties and the Mulberry Child Care Centre on the other side of Great Eastern Highway. The proposal will negatively change the character of the area that has many children and elderly people. It will also ruin people’s lives and aspirations, and diminish their investments. The proposal as it is short-sighted, self benefiting, irresponsible and clearly not in the community’s interest. The proposal is a farcical misappropriation and distribution of taxpayer money and only benefits entities such as Perth Airport, building contractors and

Partially uphold. Refer to Submission 10 Council recommendation. Correspondence and dialogue with the local community since the commencement of the project has been regular. Prior to the advertising of LPP14, a series of correspondence was mailed to landowners within the DA6 project area throughout the formulation of the Vision Plan. The following letters have been sent in relation to DA6 since the commencement of the project:

1. 30 April 2013 – a project initiation letter was to all

owners and occupiers in DA6 (368 letters in total) 2. 7 May 2013 – An invitation to attend one of two

community workshops was sent to all owners and occupiers in DA6 (368 letters in total), as well as to other stakeholders (government agencies, servicing authorities, etc)

‘delusional members of the City of Belmont’ rather than the residents. The proposal will cause more debt for the State Government that they cannot afford. The City of Belmont has a responsibility to ratepayers to represent their best interests. The Council and the City town planners are not achieving this with the current plan. The plan is only suitable if Fauntleroy Avenue is used as the access road given it is more logical, cost effective and will not impact existing residential land use. Tonkin Highway is also an excellent option as it bypasses the residential area. The communication on the plan has been poor, and many residents also did not get informed about the workshops. The concept of opening up Coolgardie Avenue was also not conveyed to those who did attend the workshops nor the affected residents. The whole process has lacked transparency and has been intentionally deceptive. A comprehensive feasibility study must be undertaken by Council and the State Government and include: Demographics of the street and how it related to its

intended use; Breakdown of costs associated with the project,

including how it relates to money already spent on Brearley Avenue;

Safety implications attributed to the proposal of making this a busy transport link to the domestic airport region in regards to the safety of resident to this street.

Projected traffic volumes for Coolgardie Ave, if this is to go ahead.

Regional impact from opening up Coolgardie Ave The integration of the two sections of the residential precinct by closing Brearley Avenue and creating a park is supported, but access should not be through Fauntleroy Avenue and not Coolgardie Avenue.

Group session was sent to workshop attendees who expressed an interest in further dialogue on the development of the Vision Plan (19 letters sent)

4. 10 July 2013 – a letter was sent to all owners and occupiers advising of the availability of a report outlining the proceedings and outcomes of the Community Workshops (370 letters sent)

5. 14 August 2013 – a letter was sent to all owners and occupiers within the DA6 project area notifying them that the Vision Plan had been referred to Council for adoption (370 letters sent)

6. 16 September 2013 – a letter inviting comment on draft LPP14 was sent to all landowners and occupiers within the DA6 project area as well as government agencies (403 letters in total).

In order to provide a forum for stakeholders and the local community to participate in the visioning exercise and express their expectations and desires for the way in which redevelopment progresses in DA6, the City of Belmont and Perth Airport Pty Ltd hosted two Community Visioning Workshops (on 17 and 18 May 2013). The workshops were facilitated by Taylor Burrell Barnett, a professional planning and urban design firm appointed by the City of Belmont and Perth Airport Pty Ltd as the project Consultant. A total of 51 community stakeholders (including residents, business owners and state government staff) attended the Visioning Workshops. An additional Community Information Forum was hosted on 19 July 2013 as a means of refining the preferred Vision Concept. The Community Information Forum was facilitated by TBB and attended by 18 residents (who had expressed interest in further dialogue), five Councillors and eight members of the Project Team. In relation to LPP14, consultation is a statutory process required under Clause 2.4 of the LPS15 where a draft local planning policy has been prepared, as follows: A draft local planning policy is required to be publicly

advertised for a minimum of 14 days. This occurs through notice of the draft policy being published once a week for two consecutive weeks in the

A14


13


Southern Gazette. Letters may also be sent to landowners within the area that the draft policy relates, or to whom may be affected by the provisions of the draft policy.

Following conclusion of the advertising period, Council shall review the draft policy in the light of any submissions made and shall then resolve either to finally adopt the draft Policy with or without modification, or not to proceed with the draft Policy.

Draft LPP14 was advertised from Monday 16 September 2013 to Friday 11 October 2013 (25 days). The following measures were undertaken to advertise the proposal: Advertisements were included in the Public Notices

of the Southern Gazette on Tuesday 17 September 2013 and Tuesday 1 October 2013

Four hundred and three (403) letters were sent to owners, occupiers, government agencies and other stakeholders.

Identified potential increase in dwelling yields for the Redcliffe area are noted. To assist with planning for future educational facilities, the Department would like to be provided with information relating to the total number and types of dwellings anticipated given students that would reside within the development and are of primary school age would be expected to be accommodated at the nearby Redcliffe Primary School. The Department has a policy which encourages the use of school facilities including ovals. Licence agreements can be arranged with local government authorities and written agreements can be organised with individuals and organisations that wish to make incidental or seasonal use of the oval.

Questions noted. Details pertaining to these questions are contained in the Vision Plan and will be further developed at Structure Plan stage. Information can be conveyed to the Department of Education at this time. The comments regarding the shared use of school ovals is noted and a feature of the Vision.

23. Mr D Rivers & Mrs L Rivers 19 Sheaok Court Forrestfield WA 6058

Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe Strongly opposed to opening Coolgardie Avenue as the key entry point to the airport and surrounding commercial area. Family are long-term residents of Coolgardie Avenue and were involved with the push to close Coolgardie Avenue for the safety of residents and children who play in front gardens and sidewalks. Alternative access routes currently exist at Brearley Avenue, Fauntleroy Avenue and Dunreath Drive which are designed for this purpose. Ben Street could also be upgraded for this purpose. Coolgardie Avenue is a residential street and is not designed for traffic associated with high density residential and commercial traffic. It therefore should not be reopened.

Information not currently addressed is:

Expected traffic volumes for Coolgardie Avenue; Whether Coolgardie Avenue will be widened, and

how this would affect existing properties (including compensation);

What minimising crossovers means; How the impacts of increased traffic, noise and air

pollution to residents will be mitigated; The need for relocating utilities, including costs; Where the train station, rail alignment and parking

will actually be; and How illegal parking will be managed.

128 Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe Object to Coolgardie Avenue being reopened to through traffic to Perth Domestic Airport. Brearley Avenue is a busy four lane dual carriageway that acts as a main thoroughfare between the airport business precinct and Great Eastern Highway. Coolgardie Avenue is currently a quiet, traffic calmed, residential street with a cul-de-sac, which was closed to remove speeding traffic. The closure of Brearley Avenue in conjunction with the rail link is constructed in 2018-2020 will shift traffic and commercial vehicles accessing an expanding business precinct onto Coolgardie Avenue if re-opened to through traffic. There will also be significant upgrades required to Coolgardie Avenue given it is currently a two lane residential street, resulting in loss of the nature strip and additional land off the front of properties. This would be inappropriate to have vehicles travelling right past the front doors of existing houses. Major works to realign sewage, gas, electricity, telecommunications and water would be required under the plan, which is not justified given other access points currently exist and can be used.

140 Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe Object to the Vision Plan as it is flawed given Coolgardie Avenue is not designed to act as an airport access road, nor can accommodate large volumes of traffic and


A19


18


commercial vehicles. Notwithstanding the Terminal consolidation, the airport is growing and future commercial development will increase traffic significantly. Vehicles will still use local roads as rat-runs like they currently do instead of the future intersection of Tonkin Highway. Not opposed to progress however the continual upgrades at Perth Airport domestic terminal and future planning will push impacts onto adjoining residents. A simple solution would be to limit access from Coolgardie Avenue into the airport precinct entirely and not service the station and new supermarket, and instead run along the boundary of the precinct. If Brearley Avenue is closed, there is a chance that it may be reinstated which would undermine the green link. If closed, there should be no direct route from the Redcliffe precinct into the airport should be allowed as this will push traffic onto roads which are designed with lesser capacity. There are significant costs associated with the activities at the airport and this will then transfer to adjoining residents (e.g. will there be a need to pay for parking at a future supermarket near the station?). The Vision does not include the upgrade of Great Eastern Highway and Tonkin Highway, which is important. There also does not appear to be a traffic study of projected traffic volumes along Coolgardie Ave and Fauntleroy Avenue once Brearley Avenue is closed. It is also unclear when the upgrades to Coolgardie Avenue under the Vision would be undertaken. This should be included in the Vision Plans and presented to residents.

33. Mr J Darrch & Mrs R Darroch 168 Coolgardie Avenue Redcliffe WA 6104

168 Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe Due to age, wish to downsize living situation, which could be done by either subdividing or selling. This has been difficult to determine as subdivision is not permitted in this area due to a ‘blanket ban’. Similarly, cannot sell proprerty as there is no certainty on the future development potential – cannot wait 3-5 years given age. Implementation should occur as soon as possible

Secondly, object to opening up of Coolgardie Avenue to be the main entry point to the precinct – it is not logical as access can be provided by Fauntleroy Ave and the proposed access point at Boud Avenue off Tonkin Highway. The proposal will see traffic filter through the local road network. The precinct needs to be kept safe.

Partially uphold. Refer to Submissions 3 and 10 – Council recommendation.

34. Mr M Harnett & Mrs S Harnett 162 Coolgardie Avenue Redcliffe WA 6104

162 Coolgardie Avenue, Redcliffe Long term residents and decided to build and live in Coolgardie Avenue given it is a quiet location suitable for raising a family, a no through road, close to a main artery and the site that could accommodate working career. A number of concerns exist about project: The project is likely to devalue all the properties on

Coolgardie Avenue significantly; Those who have redeveloped recently will have be

disadvantaged and will have investments devalued; There are likely to be significant costs to redevelop

Coolgardie Avenue to accommodate the additional traffic

The closure of Brearley Avenue will not necessarily result in the use of other airport access roads and result in the use of the road network;

Fauntleroy Avenue is a much more sound access point to the precinct.

Although local residents will use the airport and station, the lifestyle should not be compromised. As a suggestion, to making Coolgardie Avenue an entry to the airport and the proposed train station and bus interchange would be to close Coolgardie Avenue to east bound traffic at Great Eastern Highway and continue with the proposal to allow local residents access to the train

Partially uphold. Refer to Submission 10 Council recommendation. It is acknowledged that not all residents have access to computers, however all correspondence sent invites enquiries and advises that additional information can be provided by contacting Council staff. This includes seeking clarification on the content and implications of planning projects and proposals.

38. Mr L Broadhurst Manager Road Planning Main Roads WA PO Box 6202 East Perth WA 6892

Nil In principle support for the vision.

A comprehensive Traffic Impact Assessment (TIA) should be undertaken to ascertain: Impacts on the nearby external road network (Great

Eastern Highway & intersections at Coolgardie Ave & Fauntleroy Ave).

Future impacts on the local road network post-closure of Brearley Avenue.

Modelling for future traffic volumes (inclusive of full build out + 10 years).

Impacts of Perth Airport development (notwithstanding that it is a separate entity).

The developer shall be responsible for all costs involved in the development of the intersections and accesses, including signage, road markings, land acquisition, design and construction of the intersections, relocation of services, street lighting, public transport facilities (PSP, appropriate verges etc) and Main Roads design and construction drawings, as well as site inspections.

Support and comments noted. Detailed traffic analysis will be undertaken at structure planning stage and address the matters outlined.

The function of Fauntleroy Ave and Coolgardie Ave intersections should be investigated to ascertain the types of vehicles that would make use of each entrance, and the access off of GEH designed accordingly. It is expected that Fauntleroy Ave would receive a higher amount of heavy vehicles than Coolgardie Ave and would therefore require an appropriate design to cater to higher levels of heavy vehicles Providing an efficient, safe and legible internal road network should be a priority for the DA6 Vision area. Consideration should be given to how vehicles will over through the Vision area to limit the necessity of road users to access GEH for local movements. In particular connectivity for internal north east - south west, parallel to GEH, vehicle movements should be examined in greater detail. A potential improvement could be the connection of the two segments of Redcliffe Road. General support of the left In / left out treatments proposed for Boulder Ave, Central Ave and Bulong Ave subject to the cul-de-sacs removal being funded by the developer.

The closure of Brearley Ave is supported and the timing of the closure of Brearley Ave must occur at the same time as construction of Boud Ave as part of the Gateway Project.

The section of GEH from Tonkin Hwy to GEH Bypass is under review and there may be a need for extra land outside of the current MRS reservation. A Strategic Access Policy for GEH has been created which intends to restrict access to and from properties on GEH. This is has been reflected in the plan and should be further developed.

A detailed noise assessment will need to be developed as a component of the orderly planning of the DA6 Vision area. It is envisioned that this assessment will factor in noise generated from GEH, Tonkin Hwy and the nearby airport land uses.

39. Mr M Mrdak Secretary Federal Department of Infrastructure & Regional Development GPO Box 594 Canberra ACT 2601

Note integrated Vision Plan. The Plan impacts local, state and Commonwealth land (leased by Perth Airport Pty Ltd) and intends to be developed for a range of aviation, commercial and residential uses. Also note the incorporation of infrastructure plans for enhanced public transport services proposed by the State Government for the Perth Airport Rail Project. .

Perth Airport is located on Commonwealth land and is subject to regulatory obligations under the Airports Act 1996 and associated regulations, including requirement for a Master Plan prepared every 5 years. The next is due in late 2014. There are no specific issues with the plan, but consideration should be given to: Safeguarding both the community and the airport

from inappropriate off-airport developments that could threaten public safety and the future viability of aviation operations.

Avoiding tall obstacles in the vicinity of the airport given air safety hazards (including construction activities).

Aircraft noise which can be a significant concern for communities around airports – development should be avoided in the ANEF contours. The area is on the margins of the ANEF and the review of the contours may result in them moving.

The closure of Brearley Avenue must not prejudice efficient access to airport facilities. Detailed traffic analysis of the access arrangements and the new access roads will need to be undertaken, if they have not already as part of the Gateway WA project.

The Department encourages the City of Belmont and Perth Airport to continue to work together, and continue to make use of the Perth Airport Planning Coordination Forum and Community Aviation Consultation Group to discuss any impacts of the policy on the airport with other stakeholders.

Comments noted. Matters relating to airport viability, height of objects and aircraft noise have been considered as part of Vision Plan. Detailed traffic analysis will be undertaken at structure planning stage
