Zig Zag Lane, Crows Nest - Proposed Timed Loading Zone

Feedback closes midnight Sunday 28 July 2019

Council has received correspondence from residents concerned with the use of the existing Loading Zone in Zig Zag Lane, Crows Nest.  Residents have advised that the Loading Zone is used 24 hours a day and these activities are creating excessive noise especially at night time. It was suggested to remove the Loading Zone and install No Stopping to prevent vehicles accessing this area.

As the Loading Zone is used by businesses on daily basis and cannot be removed. In order to assist residents with the issue and maintain the Loading Zone facility, Council is proposing to restrict the loading Zone times. Following consideration by the North Sydney Traffic Committee, North Sydney Council has adopted the following recommendation for changes in the existing Loading Zone arrangement in Zig Zag Lane, Crows Nest:

THAT the existing Loading Zone on the northern side of Zig Zag Lan between Willoughby Lane and Zig Zag Lane be restricted to “7am-5pm Mon-Fri, 8am-12:30pm Sat” with additional “No Stopping other times” to alleviate the issue, subject to consultation with the residents and business.

The purpose of this survey is to determine if the majority of the residents and businesses wish to retain the existing Loading Zone or introduce the time restriction. The survey is not a voting form as such, but it will assist in determining the support for the restriction proposed. If there is no support for the proposed changes to the Loading Zone restriction, then it will not occur.
