AVLC Accessible Carpark Upgrade

As we shared in March 2024, these works are planned as part of the Moonee Valley City Council Accessible Parking Review and Strategy Development. The upgrade will ensure all existing disabled bays meet accessible parking bay compliance standards, which stipulates at least 5% of parking supply being accessible parking.
Following project completion, the plan will achieve the following:

• Additional Accessible Parking Bays: We are adding five new accessible parking bays, increasing our capacity to 5% of the total car park, in line with MVCC’s Accessible Parking Review and Strategy Development Plan.

• Upgraded Accessible Parking Bays: Existing accessible parking bays will be upgraded to meet the latest Australian standards, ensuring compliance and ease of use.

• New Bicycle Racks: To support active transport users, we will be installing new bicycle racks, making it easier and more convenient to park bikes.

• Raised Pedestrian Crossing: A new raised pedestrian crossing will be installed, providing a safe and accessible path for pedestrians to cross Pynor Avenue from the Eastern car park.

• New Tactile Ground Surface Indicators (T.G.S.I’s): We will implement new directional and warning tactile ground surface indicators to assist patrons who are blind or vision impaired.

• Improved Road Safety Conditions: Enhanced road safety measures, including new line markings, traffic calming measures, and speed management devices, will be introduced to ensure safer vehicle movements throughout the car park and along Pynor Avenue.

• Enhancing Car Park Lighting: Following comprehensive lighting assessments, we will install new lighting and upgrade existing fixtures to improve light quality, safety, and security throughout the car park.
