Randwick City Council
Local Transport Forum - 9 Jun 2026
The forum backed a resident parking trial, required new no-stopping restrictions in Clovelly, and noted several bus stop, bus service and traffic-safety follow-ups across Randwick-area streets.
Topics
- Resident parking trial approved for Searle Avenue
Council will trial resident parking on Searle Avenue for six months, adding about six parking spaces worth of resident-only parking.
Affects local parking supply and could signal pressure from residents in the area. - No-stopping restrictions tightened in Clovelly and Matraville
New no-stopping controls were confirmed for Boundary Street in Clovelly, while a 65 metre no-stopping zone on Franklin Street in Matraville was also noted.
These changes affect kerbside parking, access and enforcement in two neighbourhoods. - Bus stop and bus service changes under review around Randwick and Coogee
Councillors asked for a closer bus stop near Randwick Light Rail, a review of Route 362, and clarification of a temporary bus stop relocation on Canberra Street.
Potential changes to public transport access and service frequency could affect daily commuters.
Decisions
- Resident parking trial approved for Searle Avenue
A 44 metre resident parking zone, about six parking spaces, is to be trialled for 6 months on Searle Avenue.
May improve parking availability for nearby residents and change on-street parking rules for six months. - No Stopping signage to be installed on Boundary Street, Clovelly
Mandatory 10 metre No Stopping signage is to be installed on the south side of Boundary Street, 10 metres east and west of Campbell Street.
Will restrict stopping and parking near the intersection, affecting motorists and nearby residents. - Franklin Street no-stopping restriction noted
The forum noted Council had introduced a No Stopping zone on the northern side of Franklin Street, Matraville, just west of Larose Avenue, covering about 65 metres of kerb.
Changes parking and stopping availability along Franklin Street.
Discussion
- Bus stop relocation near Randwick Light Rail
Councillors requested a review of the bus stop connecting to the Randwick Light Rail so it is closer to the light rail stop.
Could improve interchange convenience for public transport users. - Review of Route 362 bus service
A request was made for Transport to review the 362 bus service between Coogee and Bondi, including frequency and days of operation.
May affect service levels for regular bus passengers in the eastern suburbs. - Temporary bus stop relocation at Canberra Street, Randwick
A temporary relocation of the bus stop at 71 Canberra Street was discussed, with further clarification and site review requested, including tree trimming to allow bus movements and confirmation of duration.
Affects local access, bus operations and nearby street amenity during works. - Pedestrian signal timing reviews requested
Councillor Martin asked for a review of pedestrian counter phasing at Belmore Road and Coogee Bay Road, and at Arden and Carr Street, Coogee.
Could change crossing times and pedestrian safety at busy intersections. - Truck signage review on Carrington Road
Councillor Martin requested a review of truck signage on Carrington Road, with information provided by Council officers.
May affect heavy vehicle routing and local traffic conditions. - Australia Post box near Boundary Street signage area
