The development of the Elderslie Release Area involves the opportunity to provide for choice in mode of transport. As a result, convenient road connections to adjoining areas and other public transport routes will provide for ease of movement of buses between suburbs, link activity centres within and external to the suburb, and to the railway at Campbelltown and Macarthur. It will also ensure bus stops are located near neighbourhood parks, shops, and schools and are related to the main pedestrian routes.
Controls
- Bus routes and bus stops are designed, constructed and clearly marked in accordance with Figure S1-11 Elderslie Release Area Indicative Bus Routes.
- In addition to Figure S1-11, road reserves of streets linking with the surrounding areas must not prevent the operation of future potential bus routes.
- A development application must:
- include a bus routes plan, showing how the route links with existing and/or proposed routes.
- show location of bus stops and proportion of dwellings within the 400m catchment.
- include a street network plan showing street reserve information.
- include how bus stops relate to surrounding activities.
