Council is seeking feedback on the proposed parking changes in front of 2-4 Progress Avenue, Eastwood.
The proposed parking changes:
Due to the closure of the Australia Post Office, Council is proposing the following changes at the frontage of 2-4 Progress Avenue, Eastwood:
- Convert the existing full time “MAIL ZONE” to a “MAIL ZONE, 12PM – 4PM, MON-FRI” and “LOADING ZONE, ALL OTHER TIMES”
- Convert the existing four (4) x “P5 MINS, 8AM-6PM, MON-SUN” parking spaces to “1/2P, 8AM-6PM, MON-SUN AND PUBLIC HOLIDAYS”
Please refer to the concept plan below to view the proposed changes.
Why was the change initially considered?
Council has received requests from the community following the closure of the Australia Post office in May 2022 to change the existing Mail Zone and the timed parking at 2-4 Progress Avenue, Eastwood.
Converting the existing full time “MAIL ZONE” to “MAIL ZONE, 12PM – 4PM, MON-FRI” and “LOADING ZONE, ALL OTHER TIMES” will increase the capacity for deliveries to the local businesses in the area.
As part of the Post Office closure, the Post Office (PO) boxes were also removed, hence changing the existing 5 mins parking to 30 mins “1/2P, 8AM-6PM, MON-SUN, AND PUBLIC HOLIDAYS” will increase short term parking for visitors to the town centre.
