Transport, Access and Parking
Centennial Parklands receives over 10 million visits annually from visitors participating in a diverse range of activities.
The Parklands is surrounded by local and regional recreation precincts that add pressure to the traffic in the park precinct and within Centennial Park and also increase demand for parking within Centennial Park and the Moore Park event parking.
As a result of the range of activities, number of visitors and competing traffic and parking demands there are a number of conflict areas.
The Plan
The Trust commissioned Sinclair Knight Merz to complete a Transport Access and Parking Plan to better manage cars in the Parklands and improve access, safety and environmental sustainability.
As part of the process the Trust involved the community in extensive consultation through reference groups, workshops and open days; and provided information via mail outs, the Internet, local newspapers and at the Parklands Office.
As well as community feedback from these channels the Trust received a large number of submissions from the public regarding the draft Plan, these submissions were considered and the issues collated and addressed by the project team when revising the Plan.
The completed Plan will be adopted as an amendment to the Centennial Parklands Plan of Management. The Plan will be implemented as funding becomes available and aims to protect the integrity of the Parklands through four main actions:
- Improve access to the Parklands
- Improve access within the Parklands and between the Parks
- Better manage parked vehicles
- Improve internal arrangements within Centennial Park
