Regarding DA D/2019/864
This DA should be approved on conditions that:
- the existing footpath in front of the be designated for use as a Shared Path
- the redevelopment investigate opportunities to clarify the existing footpath of street furniture, including the little (if ever)-used Telstra phone box
- it being clearly indicated that no vehicle parking is permitted on the path (as commonly happens now). This is even captured on Google Streetview (link below)
The existing path on the northern side of Henderson Road in this area will be crucial for walking and cycling once the Waterloo Metro Station opens (and also because the Henderson Rd road reserve may possibly be reapportioned in future with changing transport demands).
Vehicles regularly park illegally on the footpath:
