4 Committee 4 Wagga has accessed the draft Wagga Wagga Spatial Plan and responds in a way that reflects the Committee 4 Wagga s Strategic Plan (C4WSP). The C4WSP contains approximately 30 indicators that will measure the success of our city over the next 30 years. The C4WSP includes; 1. Short term goals; that provide immediate benefit for the Community. 2. Medium term goals; consisting of solutions to existing demands of the city, and 3. Long term goals; of a strategic nature that are visionary and that are required for the future sustainable growth of the city. The response by Committee 4 Wagga to the Wagga Wagga Spatial Plan is consistent with the Committee 4 Wagga s Strategic Plan and the core business goals and objectives of the Committee 4 Wagga, which are noted below. The core business of Committee 4 Wagga is to champion positive change for a better Wagga Wagga by; Supporting and promoting the City to ensure sustainable growth. Identifying and implementing opportunities that will enhance our cultural, social, business and economic prosperity. Providing a platform for community, business and government collaboration to effect positive change. The goals of Committee 4 Wagga are to; Enhance the quality of life within Wagga Wagga. Enable the community to initiate and effect positive change. Develop and expand the existing and emerging leadership base. Facilitate the interaction of community, business and government. Support a flexible and creative business culture. Partner to develop city infrastructure. Position Wagga Wagga nationally and internationally. 4 Committee 4 Wagga

5 THE PURPOSE OF THE SPATIAL PLAN The Wagga Wagga Spatial Plan (WWSP) should provide a clear set of strategic indicators for the development of Wagga Wagga over the next 30 years and beyond. It is the key strategic planning document for directing and managing urban growth and change. The Spatial Plan is intended to guide the allocation of resources, such as the use of land and the construction of capital infrastructure. The Spatial Plan is intended as a detailed planning document that sets the framework for spatially based decision making in the future and outlines the actions needed to achieve the strategic direction over the next 30 years. The Community Strategic Plan (CSP) is a 10 year plan with high level objectives for the community to achieve and strategies that guide how to reach those goals. Generally this plan can be summarised with the following statement: The Community Strategic Plan is designed to make Wagga Wagga a better place in which to live, work and play. The Committee 4 Wagga is seeking more clarity, specific recommendations and solutions within the Spatial Plan. The Community needs to obtain more knowledge about our City s future through the WWSP, rather than general knowledge, and that the population will increase to approximately 78,000 people in The growth in population necessitates the provision of land for housing development, roads, facilities and infrastructure and this information should be more clearly addressed within the WWSP. Much of the content of the WWSP deals with where are we now. Whilst this is useful to set a base, there is too much focus on what currently exists rather than what we need moving towards The explanation of the makeup of existing suburbs is factual but the plan should focus more on existing and future needs and how these two factors set the parameters for the WWSP. RECREATION, ARTS, & LEISURE AS A WAY OF STAYING CONNECTED This section of the WWSP deals with the opportunities for people to use the existing facilities. It highlights what is available in Wagga Wagga, things to do, places to go. Committee 4 Wagga recommends that. The WWSP includes specific goals across all sectors of the report. Response to Wagga Wagga City Council Draft Spatial Plan 5

6 THE RIVERSIDE STRATEGIC MASTER PLAN The Riverside Wagga Wagga Strategic Master Plan (RSMP) has a few paragraphs dedicated to it, within the WWSP. The Murrumbidgee River is the most under utilised asset in our city. We have built a bank around it (by necessity) that forms a visible and physical barrier to its beauty and use. The WWSP provides an opportunity for us to finally recognise the significance of this natural feature, to utilise the resource for the benefit of our community. The use of place and space alongside the river bank could be a significant outcome from the WWSP, provided we identify the opportunity and plan to use this existing natural resource. Committee 4 Wagga proposes that the Riverside Strategic Master Plan be instigated in stages and within budgetary parameters. Stage 1 of the implementation should encourage the community to connect with the Murrumbidgee River and particularly the rocks area and Wagga beach. It is proposed that a pathway and board walk be constructed between the Visitors Information Centre and Wagga beach. That a decked area be constructed around the rocks area (but not over the rocks ). It is proposed that the levee bank immediately behind the Visitor Information Centre be replaced with a panel type structure that is able to be easily removed and replaced. These structures are used regularly in Europe, particularly Holland and Belgium (See structure examples of ThyssenKrupp page 7). This would open up the area and provide a connection point for the community and visitors to interact with the Murrumbidgee River. It would also provide a green space that would enhance any future residential development in this area, bounded by Cross Street to the north, Tarcutta Street to the west, the Murrumbidgee River to the east and the existing houses to the south, (on Tarcutta Street). This proposal would finally see the development and construction of the RSMP, and provide some physical evidence of Council s commitment to this project. Further stages, linking the Wagga Beach to the Wiradjuri Bridge and linking the Visitor Information Centre to the Main Southern Rail Line railway bridge (over the river) could be considered as funds become available and when there is a community expectation to enlarge the Riverside precinct. Committee 4 Wagga recommends that; 1. The WWCC initiate stage 1 of the RSMP to provide a connection between the Civic precinct and the Murrumbidgee River. 2. The Wollundry Lagoon is incorporated into the RSMP, and that a walking track loop be created integrating The River walk and the Wollundry walk. Proposed walking track 6 Committee 4 Wagga

10 MULTI PURPOSE CENTRE The proposed Multi Purpose Centre to be located within the Bolton Park precinct is welcomed although it will require a flexible facility that can adapt to the hosting of many types of events and functions. Committee 4 Wagga recommends that; The Multi Purpose Centre contain flexible options to ensure its diversity across many types of activities. A VARIETY OF TRANSPORT OPTIONS Whilst there are a variety of transport methods nominated as available in Wagga Wagga, the WWSP needs to focus more on the inadequacies, inefficiencies and growth requirements needed to address transport into the future. There are examples of these shortfalls across the road network within Wagga Wagga and whilst the WWSP eludes to this it does not in any way identify the hotspots that will require upgrading, renewing or duplicating to cater for increased traffic as a result of population growth. Committee 4 Wagga confirms the intent of the WWSP to improve traffic corridors from the Southern suburbs of Wagga Wagga to the airport. Committee 4 Wagga identifies the following hotspots that require attention to ensure the smooth flow of traffic within the city, especially in peak hours. Glenfield Road. This arterial road is under extreme stress during peak hours especially in the locality between the Fernleigh Road roundabout and the Pearson/Dobney Ave roundabout. The continued development of residential land to the south of Wagga Wagga points to extreme pressure on this part of the road network into the future. The potential for land development particularly in Lloyd (1451) (allotments) Hilltop (17) Tatton (230) Springvale (17) and Bourkelands (173) (total new allotments 1888) makes it obvious that this road precinct needs urgent attention. Committee 4 Wagga recommends; 1. The duplication of Glenfield Road, initially, between Fernleigh Road and the Dobney Ave/Pearson Street roundabout. 2. This duplication would require the construction of an additional overpass of the MSRL. 3. The upgrading of Pearson Street to Edward St (Sturt Highway). This upgrade on Pearson Street should include protected turning lanes, traffic islands, and any other enhancements to improve and streamline traffic flow which feeds onto Moorong and Kincaid Streets. 10 Committee 4 Wagga

11 Docker Street/ Hospital Precinct. This arterial road is extremely dangerous to pedestrians and drivers between the MSRL crossing near Coleman Street and Edward Street. Reverse parking in this precinct is problematic and reduces the smooth flow of traffic. There is limited parking available for Hospital staff, visitors and patients which creates indifferent driving objectives between through traffic and Hospital traffic. There is no pedestrian crossing in the immediate area of the Hospital, were pedestrians walk from the Specialist Doctor Surgerys on the western side of Docker Street to the hospital on the eastern side of Docker St. The closest (safe) pedestrian crossing is located between 1 and 3 blocks away on the corner of Edward Street and Docker Street. Whilst the construction of the new Wagga Wagga Base Hospital and more intense medical surgery development in this area will impact positively on Wagga Wagga s health infrastructure, it will impact negatively on traffic flow in this area, creating vehicle bottlenecks, driver frustration and the increased risk of pedestrian accidents. Committee 4 Wagga recommends; 1. Planning for an underpass of the MSRL on Docker Street at the Coleman Street intersection. 2. The purchase of the vacant land in Coleman Street (formerly Mobil Fuel depot),for a car park. 3. An elevated footbridge (over the MSRL) connecting a Coleman Street car park (2) to Roma St. 4. A pedestrian crossing in Brookong Avenue to connect (3 above) to the Hospital grounds. 5. An elevated footbridge over Docker Street from Hardy Ave into the Hospital grounds adjoining the UNSW facility. 6. Improved car parking arrangements in Docker Street to minimise traffic flow disruption. 7. One way traffic flow in the adjoining Streets of Hardy Avenue, Meurant Ave, Lewisham Ave and Emblem Street, to streamline traffic in the Calvary Hospital/Surgeries area. Lake Albert Road. This arterial road between Edward Street and Copland Street is a traffic hotspot, particularly during peak hour times. Committee 4 Wagga recommends; 1. Planning for an extension of the existing MSRL underpass southerly under Edward Street and into Lake Albert Road to eliminate this major intersection. Response to Wagga Wagga City Council Draft Spatial Plan 11

12 NSW LONG TERM TRANSPORT MASTER PLAN. (NSWLTMP) The NSWLTTMP identifies the Sturt Highway through Wagga Wagga as a significant congestion point. The Sturt Highway is the direct transport link between Sydney and Adelaide. It carries high volumes of traffic, particularly heavy vehicles and B Doubles. There will be an expectation for the use of B Triples into the future, and the Sturt Highway s route through the CBD of Wagga Wagga will threaten this progress and development to ensure more viable and affordable freight options. Sturt Highway. The Sturt Highway is a poor reflection on our City and a disappointing doormat for visitors and residents alike. There is very little reason to stay a while during the mundane city crossing between Forest Hill and Ashmont. The Sturt Highway is a poorly constructed roadway; it is variable in its width, the number of traffic lanes, the pavement, and inconsistency in intersection treatment (traffic lights, roundabouts and normal crossroad intersections). The Sturt Highway splits the city in two, separating the CBD from the majority of the existing residential suburbs to the south of the City. The nature of Wagga Wagga s road network plan combines Sturt Highway through traffic with local traffic. As the Sturt Highway is the main road between Sydney and Adelaide, much of the through traffic comprises heavy vehicles including B double trucks. The integration of local traffic with highway traffic is challenging to the State Government (RMS) WWCC, the community and all road users. Committee 4 Wagga recommends; 1. That planning commence for the construction of a high quality dual carriageway (Sturt Highway) from the eastern side of Forest Hill to the Olympic Highway junction at the Silverlite reserve. East West Bypass. The previous section of this report mentions the inadequacy of the existing Sturt Highway and the need for a bypass of the City. Committee 4 Wagga recommends; 1. That investigation and planning take place for a flood free dual carriage way bypass to the south of Wagga Wagga. 2. That investigation takes place to incorporate (where possible) this bypass with the High Speed Rail corridor. Southerly Bypass. A Southerly bypass is described as follows. The bypass would commence on the Sturt Highway to the east of the airport at a point approximately 1 kilometre east of The Forest Hill boundary. That a substantial roundabout be constructed at this point to provide for 2 options 1. North and/or west bound CBD traffic and 2. South and/or west bound through traffic. (Proposed bypass). 12 Committee 4 Wagga

13 The South/West Route. This would provide for through traffic enroute to the south such as Albury, and to the west to destinations such as Narrandera, Griffith and Adelaide etc. It would also provide for local traffic bound to local destinations such as The Wagga Airport, ( + future HSR interchange station proposed to be located at WWA), Lake Albert, Tatton, Bourkelands, Tolland and Lloyd. The trajectory of the road would be contained within the HSR corridor until it intersects with the Olympic Highway to the south of Kapooka and Dunns Road and then proceed westerly on the outskirts of the western boundary of the Kapooka Military Facility intersecting the Sturt Highway in the vicinity of Church s Plain Road, and then proceed on to the Sturt Highway to Adelaide. Southerly traffic (Uranquinty/Albury) would deviate in a southward direction at the Olympic Highway intersection to the south of Dunns Road. The internal route (north/west). This would provide for traffic enroute to the central CBD of Wagga Wagga City and the northern suburbs of Estella, Boorooma and the Bomen Industrial Park area and The Riverina Intermodal Freight and Logistic Hub. (RIF&LH) This route would provide connection to the North and North West (e.g. Coolamon and Temora) via the Olympic Way, or Harefield Road, (e.g. Junee). Bomen Industrial Park and RIF&LH traffic would proceed on to this destination via the Eunony Bridge Road. This traffic would return on the same route or proceed onto Adelaide or Albury via the Gobba bridge and then onto the Sturt or Olympic Highways, towards their destination. With truck restrictions on through traffic the southerly proposal would almost eliminate through traffic, except those travellers and visitors that choose to stop in Wagga Wagga for fuel, food or overnight accommodation. It would also provide a flood free option that would not be closed due to flooding of the Murrumbidgee River. The South option would eliminate any need to create a further Murrumbidgee River bridge crossing and many kilometres of raised flood free road way that would be necessary for a northerly bypass. The South option is considered to be a much more financially viable option based on a shorter distance, no river crossing or elevated flood free construction.

14 WAGGA WAGGA BIKE PLAN 2010 Committee 4 Wagga notes the small acknowledgement to the WWBP within the WWSM. The integration between cyclists and motor vehicles is difficult to implement given that road infrastructure and vehicle movement is key to the traffic plan. There are many practical examples were motor vehicles have right of carriage over cyclists, where bike lanes simply run into a dead end or merge into a roundabout with no verge for the cyclist. The existing cycle tracks are not adequately maintained and are not suitable for road bikes. Committee 4 Wagga recommends that; 1. Council continue to integrate the Bike plan into the road network and suburban precincts. 2. The WWBP include a 2 way cycle bridge over the Murrumbidgee River, to be constructed in the vicinity of the existing Gobba Bridge or as a bolt on structure to the existing Bridge, to provide access to the Charles Sturt University (CSU) and encourage students to commute to the University by bike. CAR PARKING The WWSP adequately deals with the car parking requirements of the city and the options available, including PPP opportunities. The WWSP identifies specific locations for car parks (page 52) based on a needs analysis. PUBLIC TRANSPORT There is adequate public transport into and out of the city of Wagga Wagga. There is inadequate internal public transport by bus, particularly after hours. 74.1% of the population travel to work by car, 7.1% of Wagga Wagga households do not own a car. As a growing city, public transport will become important as a means of travel, particularly if paid car parking becomes a reality in the future. Committee 4 Wagga recommends; The WWSP consider bus transport as an important alternative means of travel for the future. 14 Committee 4 Wagga

15 HIGH SPEED RAIL (HSR) Committee 4 Wagga supports the planning for HSR and recommends. 1. That the HSR route travels to the south of the Wagga Wagga Airport to link into a proposed interchange and new Terminal at the Wagga Wagga Airport. 2. That the HSR route be contained within a shared corridor with a proposed south/westerly Sturt Highway road bypass. A RESILIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILT ENVIRONMENT The WWSP adequately covers the issue of the supply and demand of housing, which indicates a take up rate of approximately 166 residential lots per annum (based on population increase and average occupancy rate over 10 years). Whilst the real estate market will find its own level, it is considered that Rural/Residential development (R5) contributes to continual urban sprawl and should be restricted to land that is not suitable for normal residential subdivision (R1). The WWSP indicates a shortfall in suitable housing options for lone and 2 person households. The WWCC should encourage and allow more semi medium allotments for housing through the delivery of smaller 450m2 lots with freehold title (Torrens). It is noted that not everyone wants to reside in a Strata or Community Title housing estate. The WWSP indicates infill housing opportunities at Wiradjuri (^ 74) Alan Staunton Oval (^ 208) Eric Weisel Oval (^ 89) and The Mill (^ 84). The 2 significant land masses that are omitted from the WWSP are: The Charles Sturt University South Campus site (CSUSC) located between Urana Street and Fernleigh Road and The Wagga Wagga Showground (WWSG). It is well known that the CSU is constructing new student accommodation at its Boorooma campus with the intention of moving all its students to that site. The CSUSC land will become a redundant resource to the CSU in the short to medium term (2-3 yrs) and will be sold off to fund further expansion at the Boorooma campus. The WWSG is a triangular parcel of land bound by Bourke Street to the east, Urana Street to the south and the MSRL to the north. The land area is ha (56.67 acres). The ownership is in the name of Wagga Wagga Show Society Incorporated (WWSS) with reservations and conditions contained in the crown grant and a caveat by the Registrar General. This parcel of land is a significant asset to the city of Wagga Wagga. It is noted that there has been a movement to rationalise the use of similarly held land within the state of NSW. Examples of this are the relocation of the Sydney Showground to Homebush Bay, the relocation of the Harold Park Paceway to Menangle Park, and the urbanisation of the CUB brewing factory on Broadway and the Toohey s site at Moore Park in Sydney, etc. Response to Wagga Wagga City Council Draft Spatial Plan 15

16 With the pending withdrawal of Trotting from the Wagga Wagga Showground (by the NSWHRA), the viability and ongoing management of this land will become a difficult issue to address. The renewal of the WWBH and the re-classification of land around the Calvary Hospital precinct will bring many additional opportunities to service the Medical and Health requirements of the region and this demand will require suitable land on which to build this type of asset. The WWSG would lend itself ideally to a mix of health and residential related opportunities. The land area would allow a mixed use of residential developments including small lot subdivision, community titled gated communities, retirement villages, and child minding and pre-school facilities. A portion of this land on the northern section could be reserved for auxiliary health and medical infrastructure and assets. Committee 4 Wagga recommends that; 1. The WWCC identify the CSUSC site as a residential area within the WWSP. 2. The WWCC encourage the WWSS to investigate alternate sites for the use as a Show Ground. 3. The WWCC address the WWSG as potential development land within the WWSP. AFFORDABLE HOUSING This is an extremely difficult issue to resolve given the current Government approval hierarchy s and market demand. It is almost impossible to provide affordable new housing without a Government Scheme First Home Ownership Scheme (FHOS) in place. The deposit gap is increasingly difficult for first home buyers to bridge. New subdivision land is expensive to produce and is laden with Government and Council charges including GST. The cost of land and building materials has approximately 38% (HIA report) of its total cost in Government charges. HIA argue that affordability cannot be found in new housing under the existing taxation regime. The alternative for affordable housing must therefore be found in the existing real estate market, i.e. houses that already exist. Committee 4 Wagga contends that the responsibility and delivery of affordable new housing lies solely within the hands of Government. Affordable new housing cannot be delivered through private enterprise without Government subsidy. Committee 4 Wagga recommends that; The WWCC provide incentives for new housing through the lobbying of NSW State Government. 16 Committee 4 Wagga

17 RETAIL AND COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT IN WAGGA WAGGA A growing city requires a flexible and adaptable approach to the needs of retail, industrial and commercial development. Retail development needs to consider the suburban growth of the city and the demands of the community for more shopping choice. Shopping experiences should not always include travelling to the CBD to purchase goods. The hierarchy and restrictions of the existing retail sector is too stringent and does not encourage diversification and decentralisation of shopping facilities. Committee 4 Wagga recommends that; The WWSM allow for more flexibility within its zoning hierarchy to allow for emerging retail shopping trends. GROWING BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT Wagga Wagga Airport; (WWA). WWA serves as a transportation, business and tourism gateway to the City and the Riverina Region. The WWA is a major centre of development itself, as well as a key economic enabler, providing job creation and social growth. Wagga Wagga has a strategic vision to become A world class Aviation Education and Training City, which is buoyed by the WWA progress towards its vision to develop the land into a world class aviation centre and business park. A Centre of Aviation Significance and the Wagga Wagga Airport master Plan support this goal. The Committee 4 Wagga s vision is that the WWA can become a significant commercial and economic asset to the city of Wagga Wagga if it is owned and operated by the WWCC. As it stands the WWA is owned by the Federal Government with a lease to the WWCC expiring in The WWA is unable to be developed in PPP s due to the restrictive nature of the current ownership. The land needs to be acquired by the WWCC with part of the land converted to freehold title to allow investment and development to take place. The current ownership restricts the ability of private development because it is not able to be offered as security to a lending authority. Committee 4 Wagga recommends that; 1. The WWCC acquire the ownership of the WWA. 2. The WWCC develop the land into a world class aviation centre and business park. 3. The WWCC provide freehold opportunities to land to developers and investors. 4. The WWA be upgraded to receive large Jet aircraft with large passenger capabilities. Bomen Business Park. (BBP) & RIF&LH. The success of the future of the BBP will be largely dependant on the development and construction of the Riverina Intermodal Freight and Logistic Hub. (RIF&LH). Other key developments in the BPP are Teys Abattoir, ROBE and RMT. BPP has been developed at a snail pace rate for a long period of time. There is ample land for development, but the BPP requires a lynch pin or key development to attract further business and opportunities to the area. The RIF&LH will be the catalyst for the future success of the BPP which will bring growth and commercial and economic benefits to the City. The RIF&LH will be the significant drawcard for attracting other associated industry to Wagga Wagga. Response to Wagga Wagga City Council Draft Spatial Plan 17

18 Committee 4 Wagga recommends that; 1. The WWCC ensure the RIF&LH is supported and resourced to achieve a successful outcome. 2. The WWCC continue to communicate with the RDA, the Federal Government, and MP for the Riverina and appropriate Government Minister, to ensure that the RIF&LH comes to fruition. COMMUNITY TO BE INVOLVED IN DECISIONS OF IMPACT The following statement can be found on page 37 of the draft WWSP, headed Spatial Plan Statement The development of this plan was undertaken in consultation with key stakeholders, Government agencies and the community. In addition, the Spatial Plan takes into consideration the aspirations of the community that are reflected in the Community Strategic Plan. The consultation process with the community was very well planned and delivered, giving everyone the opportunity to have their say. Committee 4 Wagga contends that much of the feedback, suggestions and recommendations from the community have not been encapsulated in the WWSP. The WWSP is a very generic, motherhood type of statement with very general goals. The goals nominated within the WWSP do not challenge any specific outcomes. Committee 4 Wagga recommends that; The WWSP include and recommend more specific outcomes that reflect the community consultation process. CONCLUSION The recommendations from the Committee 4 Wagga are provided to ensure the ongoing growth of the City of Wagga Wagga. Visionary and courageous leadership is required from the WWCC, its Executive Management Team and its Councillors to ensure the sustainable growth of our city. We recommend Council take a proactive role through a more detailed and accountable WWSP which will be a measureable instrument over the next 30 years, by acknowledging and including the recommendations of the Committee for Wagga. 18 Committee 4 Wagga
