Project details
Several residents have expressed concerns to council about the long-term non-resident parking along Rose Street, Annandale. Council also conducted a parking assessment which showed a high parking demand during the day (above 85% parking occupancy rate).
Council is proposing to introduce a Resident Parking Scheme (RPS) to sections of Rose Street.
What does the proposal include?
- Installation of ‘2P 8am-6pm Permit Holders Excepted Area A1’ restrictions apply Mon-Sun on the northern section of Rose Street between William and Nelson Streets and on the southern section of Rose Street in between Trafalgar and Nelson Streets as per enclosed plan.
- As part of the proposal, 10m ‘No Stopping’ zones must also be installed at all intersections (as per NSW Road Rules) if the restriction is not already existing.
How does Council determine whether RPS will be implemented?
- A minimum of 50% support from properties in the subject section are required for consideration to implement an RPS. Each property will be entitled to a single preference only – please note that multiple submissions will be counted as one.
Where is it being proposed?
The map below shows where the Residential Parking Scheme is being proposed.
The scheme has a maximum of 2 resident parking permits and 1 visitor parking permit for each eligible property. The eligibility criteria and permit allocation are shown in the table below:
| Number of Off-Street Parking Spaces at Property | Number of Eligible Permit Type | |
| Resident Parking Permit | Visitor Parking Permit | |
| 0 | 2 | 1 |
| 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2 or more | 0 | 1 |
- Dual occupancies, multi dwelling housing and residential flat buildings, subdivisions into two or more lots and the strata subdivision of residential flat buildings, approved after January 2001, are NOT eligible to participate in Council’s Parking Permit Scheme.
- Multi-dwelling units with visitor parking within the premises will not be issued visitor parking permits.
- Parking permits are not available for boats (on trailers), box trailers, caravans, buses and trucks (i.e. vehicles greater than 3 tonnes GVM).
- Proof of vehicle registered at the property is required for resident parking permit application
