Do you think the proposed P5 restrictions for the 4 new carparks by the University Library are appropriate?
No
If not, what restriction/s would you suggest?
I think they are unnecessary given the number of P5 carparks on the opposite (south) side of the road. I guess some people heading east on Albany st might want to stop, but they can turn into the side streets to park in other p5 or other time restricted carparks to access the businesses.
However, if accepting these changes will make the project happen sooner - then just do it.
Do you think the proposed P5 restrictions for the 5 new carparks opposite Hyde Street are appropriate?
No
If not, what restriction/s would you suggest?
I think these are unneccessary given how many other p5 and other shortterm carparks are being offered in the area - plenty for the businesses in the area, especially given so many businesses are serviced by students who live nearby and can walk or bike to them.
However, if accepting these changes will make the project happen sooner - then just do it.
Do you think these parking restrictions (as shown in the map) are still appropriate?
Yes
If no, what changes to the restrictions do you recommend?
Do you have any other comments about the proposed restrictions on Albany Street and surrounding streets?
I really want this project to happen - there will be some grumbles from uni workers and students who currently make the most of ample free parking in the area, but the parking changes will be an improvement for the businesses being able to better service customers from outside the area who drive.
The project in general will be an amazing improvement for the area, given the number of people who walk in the area and the number of vehicles who are not complying with the new 30km/h speed limit, the additional protection for pedestrians is needed. Additionally, it is a key part of the city's core cycle network, addressing this huge gap between the harbour link, the tertiary precinct, and the central city will be a massive win for the council and the community.
Please just get it done.
