1 Introduction
1.1 Background
__~ �fvpybqjvw tqm eqi z__~� l`p accv cvw`wci am �yccvpb`vi Uc`bql� ~cqkf �fkql Ufp�jq`b `vi Uc`bqlServices (MNHHS) to conduct a Parking Demand Study for the Redcliffe Hospital.
The need for this study has arisen due to ongoing parking concerns at the Redcliffe Hospital over many past
years and recent announcements by the Queensland Government to construct a new Multi-Storey Car Park
on the hospital campus. The intent of this Multi-Storey Car Park is to alleviate existing parking shortfall and
also allow future expansion to hospital services.
This report summarises the process undertaken as part of the Parking Demand Study and key findings on
future parking needs. It is understood that this report will accompany a Business Case for the proposed
Multi-Storey Car Park.
1.2 Scope
_lc pgf�c f� qlc Parking Demand Study was set out by MNHHS as part of the Request for Quote and
included:
· ��������� ��� �������� ������� �������� ������ ��� ��������� �������� ������ ¡��-site”) and on the
surrounding streets within a 500m walk of the various pedestrian entry points (“on-street”).
· �fviygq �`kujvw icr`vi pyk¢cmp fv-site and on-street over a typical day of hospital operations to
establish base demands and validate existing concerns regarding parking shortfalls.
· �ategorise parking (based on duration of stay) as staff and visitor/patient demands.
· Wpq`abjpl qk`¢cb acl`¢jfyr habits of Redcliffe Hospital staff to compare against surveyed parking
demands.
· �y`vqj�m �uture parking needs for the Redcliffe Hospital to accommodate both existing demands and
future demands from expansion to capacity/services.
· £ppcpp �fqcvqj`b bfg`qjfvp �fk ` ~ybqj-Storey Car Park within the Hospital Campus and provide
commentary on suitability to assist selecting the preferred location.
· tkf¢jic ljwl-level traffic engineering advice on the design of the Multi-Storey Car Park and also identify
future considerations (both internal and external to the site) that will need to be considered as part of
the establishment of this new car park.

3 Hospital Characteristics
3.1 Existing Capacity and Operations
_lc Redcliffe Hospital is a regional hospital, which has been operating for more than 50 years, providing
general and specialist services for the population of the Redcliffe peninsula and areas to the west including
Deception Bay, North Lakes and Brighton.
As advised by MNHHS personnel, the capacity and operational characteristics of the Redcliffe Hospital is
summarised as follows:
· _lc hospital currently has an existing built capacity of approximately 324 patient beds inclusive of
overnight beds, sub-acute beds, same-day beds, bed alternatives and emergency department beds/bays.
· þ�� �������� ������ ���� �������� ��� ÿT������ ��� ��������ed Care Centre (MBICC)’ which is a multi-
level clinical/office building fronting Anzac Avenue which includes GP services, pharmacy, teaching
facilities and (more recently) oncology and renal services.
· Ivgbypj¢c f� qlc ~�I��� qlc lfp�jq`b g`mpus includes approximately 43,000m² of floor area spread across

3.2 Future Expansion
~�HHS have plans for expansion to the Redcliffe Hospital to provide additional capacity into the future. For
the purposes of this Parking Demand Study, two future periods have been assessed:
1. Xhort Term Expansion: Already committed/funded expansions to the hospital as outlined in the DRAFT
Health Service Plan. Currently, this includes allowance for a total of 26 new beds (or bed-equivalents) on-
site, bringing the total site capacity to 350 beds. These works are planned to be completed during 2018
and as such the additional parking demands generated by this expansion are considered necessary to be
accommodated as part of the new Multi-Storey Car Park.
2. eong Term Expansion: The DRAFT Health Service Plan identifies future needs for the site up to an
indictive 2031-32 horizon. The Service Plan identifies a need for an increase in capacity of the hospital to
approximately 580 beds (or bed-equivalents). Whilst it is recognised that the new Multi-Storey Car Park
is not intended to cater for additional parking demands related to this more significant hospital
redevelopment, it was deemed necessary to quantify potential parking needs for the hospital up to this
point in time to inform future master planning exercises.
Whilst it is recognised that bed numbers are not the only factor that can be used to assess capacity of a
hospital, given that bed numbers are the most readily available key metric outlined in the DRAFT Health
Service Plan, these have been used in this instance. These bed numbers have been used primarily to
calculate the expected proportional increase in hospital capacity for each period as follows:
1. Xhort Term Expansion: Increase from 324 beds to 350 beds = 8% increase to hospital capacity.
2. eong Term Expansion: Increase from 324 beds to 580 beds = 79% increase to hospital capacity.
For the purposes of this assessment it is presumed that all other key site metrics will grow by an equivalent
proportion for these two scenarios. This includes factors such as:
· Ivgkc`pcp qf pq`��jvw bc¢cbp zjvgbyijvw `irjv� redical, nursing, operations, health professionals).
· Ivgkc`pcp qf fyq�`qjcvq pck¢jgcpV · Ivgkc`pcp qf py��fkq pck¢jgcp�jv�k`pqkygqykc pygl `p rcijg`b jr`wjvw� �`qlfbfwm� �l`kr`gm� cqgV
· Ivgkc`pc qf qfq`b ayjbijvw �bffk p�`gcV It is also assumed that there will be no significant change to the operations of the site (i.e. operational times
and shift rotations) or non-clinical related aspects of the hospital (i.e. a new research building).

Overall, the Redcliffe Hospital campus provides a total on-site parking supply of 764 spaces. Excluding
allowance for drop-off/setdown zones, motorcycle parking, ambulance parking, QAS/pathology vehicle
parking and loading bays the site provides a total of 715 car spaces for general staff, visitor and patient
parking.
An indicative map showing the various on-site parking areas (as provided by MNHHS) is included in Appendix

with the Redcliffe Hospital is accommodated on the surrounding streets. As such, an inventory of on-street
parking was also conducted as part of this parking demand study. As per the MNHHS brief, the on-street
parking within a 500m walking radius of all pedestrian access points to the Redcliffe Hospital campus has
been assessed. Based on the respective locations of the 10 pedestrian access points to the various road
frontages, the extent of streets which fall within this 500m walking catchment are shown in Figure 4.2.

5 Existing Parking Demands
5.1 On-Site Parking Demands
{v-site parking demands were recorded between 6am and 6pm on Wednesday 25th October 2017. These
parking demands were derived using aerial drone imagery which was captured every 30 minutes for all
open-air car parking areas within the Redcliffe Hospital Campus. Through the use of the drone imagery, not
only was total on-site parking demands able to be recorded at 30-minute intervals, but approximate parking
durations of vehicles through detailed review of every car parking space on an individual basis. The
approximate parking duration was derived by recording whether each car space was occupied at each 30-
minute interval and whether this was the same vehicle as previous/future intervals. Based on the parking
duration of each vehicle, and also the arrival/departure times, each car was then categorised as being likely a
staff vehicle or patient/visitor vehicle. For example, cars which arrived/departed during known staff change-
over periods and which had long parking durations (i.e. +4 hours) were assumed to be staff vehicles.
Conversely, cars which arrived/departed outside of known staff change-over periods and typically of shorter
duration were assumed to be a patient/visitor vehicles. The location of the parking was also used to consider
likelihood of being either a staff or patient/visitor vehicle. This methodology is simplistic in that it does not
consider that some visitors may have been parked on-site for long duration (i.e. all day) or that staff may
have had short shifts only (and arrived at odd times of day). However, it is considered that the volume of
staff parking demands of short duration and patient/visitor demands of long duration would be comparable;
meaning the methodology used is considered to provide a reasonable level of accuracy.
It is also recognised that at present a large amount of ‘informal’ parking is experienced on-site (due to lack of
formal parking). This includes vehicles parking in grassy/gravel areas, median islands and general hardstand
areas not formally identified or marked as parking. These vehicles (and parking durations) were also
captured during the parking demand surveys.
The parking demands for the site were recorded/assessed using the same 9 parking areas as identified in
Section 4.1.
It is noted that due to survey limitations, a number of aspects of on-site parking demands were not able to
be fully captured and therefore excluded from the demand assessment. This included:
· _lc �`kujvw ²jqljv qlc a`pcrcvq g`k �`ku f� qlc ~�I�� (27 car spaces) could not be captured.

frequency of survey intervals (30 minutes) being unable to accurately identify parking demands and
durations. These vehicles are also not considered critical to overall parking supply calculations as they
are short term and vary considerably over the course of the day.

· xyc qf qlc v`qykc f� �`kujvw icr`vip fv-site extending beyond the 12-hour survey period, there is
likely to be slight inaccuracy with duration information for vehicles recorded at start of survey (6am) or
end of survey (6pm). For example, a vehicle arriving at 5pm was assigned a duration of 1 hour (up to
6pm) even though that vehicle may have stayed on-site until later in the evening after the survey was
completed. TTM have attempted to normalise these parking demands as best as possible based on
information recorded.
A summary of the parking demands recorded on-site, and assumed categorisation of staff versus visitor, over
the 12-hour survey periods is shown in Table 5.1.

Figure 5.1: Redcliffe Hospital Parking Demand Profile (On-Site)
£p g`v ac pccv jv Table 5.1 and Figure 5.1, the on-site parking demands are significant for the majority of the
day between 9am and 3pm. During these periods it is noted that drivers have difficulty finding vacant
parking spaces (either opting to park within ‘informal’ areas or follow other users who look to be leaving
parking spaces). Peak on-site demand occurs at 2pm, which generally aligns with shift change-over for a
number of staff units (i.e. nursing, operations, day procedure unit).
A breakdown of the parking duration information for every individual vehicle recorded parking on-site over
the 12-hour survey period is shown in Table 5.2.

Table 5.2: Parking Duration Grouping for All Vehicles Recorded (On-Site)
Overall, a total of 1,364 unique vehicles were recorded parking on-site over the surveyed 12-hour period.
The majority of these vehicles parked on-site for long durations (50% more than 4 hours). Based on a formal
on-site parking supply of 688 spaces, this indicates that the average turnover of car parking spaces is 1.98
cars per space (although this is slightly skewed by the large number of vehicles parking within ‘informal’
areas). If informal parking is excluded, a total of 1,212 cars were recorded parked within the 688 formal
parking spaces indicating a turnover rate of 1.76 cars per space.
Based on the parking duration information, the estimated breakdown (of total vehicle parking) between total
staff and visitor parking over the 12-hour survey period is shown in Table 5.3
Table 5.3: Estimated Total Breakdown of Staff and Visitor Parking (On-Site)
The proportion of staff and visitor parking demand is generally consistent with TTM experience which
suggest that on average 2/3 of parking demands are staff related and 1/3 is visitor related.
Finally, based on the assumed visitor parking demands, the duration breakdown of these vehicles recorded
over the 12-hour survey period is shown in Table 5.4.

5.2 On-Street Parking Demands
{v-street parking demands were undertaken in generally the same manner as the on-site surveys. These
were conducted between 6am and 6pm on Wednesday 25th October 2017. Due to the increased
geographical span of the surveys, however, only 1 hourly intervals were able to be recorded (compared to 30
minutes on-site). Due to this lesser degree of accuracy, the categorisation of parking demand durations was
less refined (i.e. durations less than 2 hours difficult to approximate).

Table 5.5: Summary of On-Street Parking Demand Survey Results
Detailed review of the hourly interval drone imagery showed that hospital related parking does not extend
fully out to the 500m limit of the streets surveyed. Based on the parking demand profiles of the vehicles
recorded on the streets, and times that street parking fills/vacates, TTM has been able to estimate with quite
reasonable accuracy that the limit of on-street parking related to the hospital is only up to 250m walk from
the Hospital Campus as is shown in Figure 5.2.

Table 5.8: Estimated Total Breakdown of Staff and Visitor Parking (On-Street)
The proportion of staff and visitor parking demand on-street is much more balanced than on-site, with
slightly more than half of on-street parking being likely visitor parking.
It is recognised, however, that due to the shorter-term parking nature of visitor cars at any given point in
time the majority of the on-street parking is likely to be related to staff. A comparison of assumed staff and
visitor parking demands for each hour of the 12-hour survey period is also shown in Table 5.9.
Table 5.9: Estimated Hourly Breakdown of Staff and Visitor Parking (On-Street)
Finally, based on the assumed visitor parking demands, the duration breakdown of these vehicles recorded
from the 12-hour survey period is shown in Table 5.10.
Table 5.10: Estimated Total Visitor Parking Demands and Duration (On-Street)
The visitor parking duration profile recorded on-street different to that recorded on-site, with only 36% of
vehicles parking for less than 2 hours (compared to ~75% on-site). If adding together assumed visitor parking
demands both on-site (Table 5.4) and on-street (Table 5.10) this indicates that on average 60% of visitor
parking demands are 2 hours or less.

5.3 Combined Total Parking Demands
_f �y`vtify the peak parking demand of the Redcliffe Hospital the surveyed on-site and on-street parking
demands were overlayed (which each have slightly different peak periods) to provide a resultant total peak.
For the purposes of this analysis it was assumed that 90% of the total on-street parking demands within the
streets nominated in Figure 5.2 were related to the Redcliffe Hospital. This allows for a small proportion of
on-street parking expected which is unrelated to the Redcliffe Hospital. This includes residents of the streets
and potential visitor cars (particularly relevant to the streets to the south of Anzac Avenue and north of
Recreation Street), and also staff/visitors to other commercial premises (particularly relevant to the streets
between the hospital campus and Portwood Street). This value is considered to provide a conservative
estimate that most on-street parking is actually related to the Redcliffe Hospital.
The resultant total Redcliffe Hospital parking demands for staff and visitors over the 12-hour survey period is
shown in Table 5.11. Given only hourly intervals were completed for on-street parking, the total parking
demand (on-site plus on-street) has also been considered on an hourly basis only.

period is shown in Figure 5.4. A graphical representation of the staff vs visitor (total) parking demand profile

6 Staff Travel Patterns
A ���� �� ��� ���� ���������� activities used to establish parking demands on-site, a questionnaire was
distributed to all Redcliffe Hospital staff (via email) to gain a better understanding for their travel habits. The
following key questions were asked as part of the questionnaire:
· H�� each staff member travelled to the Redcliffe Hospital on the day they completed the questionnaire.
· I� they travelled by car, where they parked (on-site or on-street).
· S������� �������� �� ��-site and on-street parking.
· �������� �� ��� �� ��� ��������� H� �����
· K��� �� ��� ���� being completed on the day of the questionnaire (i.e. day shift, night shift, business
hours).
Responses were gathered over an 11 day period from 11th – 22nd October 2017. A total of 348 responses to
the questionnaire were received which represented a response rate of ~23% (based on a total of 1,500 fte
staff).
A summary of the results of the questionnaire responses is provided as follows:

The responses of the questionnaires are quite telling and support the results of the parking demand surveys
in a number of ways including:
· T�� ��/� ���������� �� ���� ���!��/ �� ��� � ��������!� �� ��� ��/� ���� ��� ��/ ��"��� ��-site and on-
street. The lack of travel by alternative transportation modes such as public transport is also reflective of
the current limited availability of such services (particularly such services aligned with work shifts of most
staff).
· T�� �������� ��"������ $y respondents who parked on-street aligns generally with the observations
from the parking surveys; typically only within the zone depicted in Figure 5.2.
It is recognised, however, that there may be some sampling bias within the questionnaire responses given
the high portion of the respondents indicated they work ordinary hospital business hours. It is possible that
this is due to the fact that staff working such shifts (i.e. administration, health professionals) typically have
easy access to a computer to complete the survey. On the other hand, shift working staff (such as
medical/nursing/ operational) would likely have had less opportunity to complete the survey (i.e. no
computer available, limited time) and so are less represented in the pool of respondents. This is reflected by
the high proportion of staff indicating they park on street as opposed to on-site which is understood typically
occurs for staff arriving from 8am onwards (typical of staff working ordinary hospital business hours) once
on-site car park has been relatively filled. As such, it is expected that the response to this question is not
reflective of all staff and if more shift working staff completed the questionnaire it is likely there would have
been a higher proportion indicating they park on-site.
Regarding the staff travel mode share of the Redcliffe Hospital, for benchmarking purposes this has been
reviewed against the recently released ABS 2016 Census “Method of Travel to Work” data. Comparison has
been drawn to people working within the wider Redcliffe SA2 area and also the areas of other hospitals
within the MNHHS catchment including Caboolture Hospital (Caboolture SA2), Prince Charles Hospital
(Chermside SA2) and RBWH (Kelvin Grove – Herston SA2). A comparison of the travel to work mode shares is
shown in Table 6.1.

êèîèôèõìèé ö÷øêùúûüý

Table 6.1: Benchmarking Method of Travel to Work for Redcliffe Hospital Staff
As can be seen in Table 6.1, the mode split towards private car (as driver) for the Redcliffe Hospital is greater
than the averages for both the Redcliffe SA2 and other SA2 areas where MNHHS hospitals are located.
Chermside and Herston both have lower private vehicle mode of travel, mainly likely due to the greater
range of public transport options (and also disincentives for private vehicle travel, such as parking costs). The
mode shares for both the Redcliffe SA2 and Caboolture SA2 are very similar with a higher mode share to
private vehicle travel however some amount of public transport travel is still apparent.
It is recognised, however, that travel modes for hospital staff is typically weighted towards private vehicles
regardless given numerous factors such as
· L�mited public transport availability to cover non-standard working hours of staff (particularly shift
workers).
· P�� ���� ����� �"��������� ���� ���!�� other than by private vehicles (particularly during evening
periods).
· N��-standard working hours leads to staff completing more personal activities on the way to and from
work, so private vehicle is the most convenient option.
As such, there is the expectation that travel modes specific to the hospitals in the above noted suburbs
would have higher private vehicle travel rates then the suburb averaged rates (which accounts for all people
working in the area). This is evidenced by the 10% difference in car mode share between the Redcliffe
Hospital and Redcliffe SA2 area.
Overall it is expected than any measures to be implemented aiming to reduce reliance on private vehicles for
the Redcliffe Hospital would only likely reduce the demands to a similar level of the Redcliffe SA2 as a best-
case scenario (i.e. 95% down to possibly 85%) unless there are fundamental changes to public transport
accessibility for the wider area.

7 Parking Demand Assessment
7.1 Existing Relative Parking Demands
u� �� �� ��� �� ��� �� ��� ��-site and on-street parking demand surveys, the parking demands have been
estimated and correlated to the ‘as-built’ capacity of the Redcliffe Hospital to provide an equivalent parking
demand rate. In this instance, the parking demand rate was related to the number of beds (or bed
equivalents) and also total floor area.
Due to the fact that the parking demand survey methodology used resulted in a number of minor data
capture limitations, when determining current ‘assumed’ parking demands the following was also included
(as previously discussed in Section Figure 5.1)

and reach full capacity over the critical 9am-3pm period.

maximum allowance of 10 cars was assumed over the critical 9am-3pm period.

interval. These were derived directly from the aerial drone images and typically ranged from 5-10 cars
across the wider site.
Once adding these additional parking demand allowances to the survey data shown in Section 5, the total
assumed Redcliffe Hospital parking demands is shown in Table 7.1.

Figure 7.1: Total Redcliffe Hospital Surveyed Parking Demand Profile
A ��� $� ��� �� Table 7.1 and Figure 7.1, the assumed peak parking demand for the Redcliffe Hospital
occurred at 2pm with an assumed total of 1,233 cars parked both on-site and on-street. It is also worth
noting that this peak parking demand is relatively consistent over a significant portion of the day, with the
parking demand being more than 90% of the peak between 9am and 3pm.
Based on the existing as-built capacity of the Redcliffe Hospital, this equates to a peak parking demand rate
of:
· 1-+22 ��� ÷ 324 beds = 3.81 cars per bed
· 1-+22 ��� ÷ 43,000m² GFA = 2.87 cars per 100m² GFA

7.2 Parking Demand/Supply Benchmarking
T�� ��� ��/ ��"��� ���� ���������� �� S������ 7.1 have been compared to other known parking demand
rates and industry accepted practice. The following comments are provided with respect to this:
· T�� general ‘rule of thumb’ is that hospitals typically generate parking demands in the order of 3-4 cars
per bed and 2-2.2 cars per 100m² GFA. As such, on a per bed basis the surveyed demand rate for the
Redcliffe Hospital appears to be logical (be it on the higher end of the range), whilst on a per 100m² basis
it is likely higher than usual. Both of these are as to be expected given the high mode share to private
vehicles as discussed previously in Section 6 when compared to other hospitals. The higher parking
demand on a per 100m² is likely attributed to the fact that the historical floor space constraints of the
hospital have resulted in significant replanning of internal building layouts to maximise floor space
efficiency for clinical services. As such, it is likely that the existing Redcliffe Hospital has a higher than
average bed vs floor area ratio.
· T�� ����""����� ��� ��/ ����� ���� ��������� �����/� ��� �������/ ����� ��� ��� ��������
completed Sunshine Coast University Hospital was 3.6 space per public hospital bed and/or 3.15 spaces
per public hospital day bed. The demand rate for the Redcliffe Hospital appears to align with the general
public hospital rate (although once again slightly higher).
· T�� u�� $��� w��� w������ Brisbane City Plan 2014 planning scheme recommends parking supply for
hospitals be calculated by application of the following rate: 0.5 spaces per bed plus 0.8 spaces per staff.
Based on a 324 bed capacity and 1,200 fte staff demand (day shift) this equates to a parking requirement
of 1,122 car spaces. This is within 10% of the peak surveyed demand rate of the Redcliffe Hospital.
· T�� vu�w �������/ ���"� ����""��� ��� ��/ ����� ��� �� ����� $� ���������� �� ��� $� � �� 7
spaces per 100m² GFA. Based on a 43,000m² GFA capacity at present this equates to a parking
requirement of ~3,000 car spaces. This is considered extremely excessive in light of the parking demand
rates derived from these surveys. For the proposed site, however, within the Redcliffe Kippa-Ring Local
Plan an acceptable parking supply range for hospital related uses is between 2-3.33 spaces per 100m²
GFA (Part J, PO18 of the Local Plan Code). This would relate to an acceptable parking supply within the
range of 860-1,420 spaces which is considered more appropriate.
The above information indicates that overall the parking demand rates derived as part of the surveys are
considered to be logical, be it on the higher end of respective ranges from other sources.
7.3 Future Parking Requirements
u� �� �� ��� ����������� �� ��� ��� ��/ ��"��� ���� ����!�� � ���� �� ��� assessment, the future parking
demand expectations for the Short Term and Long Term hospital expansion scenarios (rounded to the
nearest 50 cars) are as follows:
· Short Term Expansion: 350 beds x 3.81 cars per bed = 1,350 cars
· Long Term Expansion: 580 beds x 3.81 cars per bed = 2,200 cars

T�� � ��� �3������ ��� ��/ ��"��� ��� �"��/ �� "�´�� ����/� �� ���!�� "��� �� ���� ��� !� ���� '
It is recognised that as part of a new Multi-Storey Car Park on the Redcliffe Hospital campus, paid parking is
to be implemented across all on-site parking. As such, when considering the necessary future parking supply
needs for the Hospital Campus the critical factors in this will be:
· T�� ��!�� �� ����/��/ �� $� �"���"����� for staff and visitor parking on-site. This will influence how
many persons travelling to the site will change travel modes (i.e. from car to bus) based on perceived
costs and convenience of each option.
· T�� ��!�� �� �� �������� �� ��� ��/ �� ��� ����� ���������/ ��� ���' Without proper control of on-
street parking, introduction of paid parking on-site will inevitably lead to parking demands being shifted
from on-site to on-street; potentially to an extent even greater than experienced at present due to the
capacity constraints on-site.
As such, for the purposes of assessing the future parking needs of the site the following assumptions have
been made:
· T�� ��� ��/ ��� ��� ���� ���� ��� $� �/�������� �� �������/� �/�������� ���� �� "��� ���� ���� ���"
private vehicle travel due to the considerations previously outlined in Section 5. It is understood the level
of charging for staff parking will be set at approximately $8.00 per day. Whilst it is recognised that paid
parking may convert some staff to different travel modes, the improved reliability of on-site parking (i.e.
staff being able to find parking immediately rather than allow extra time before shifts to find a car park)
may have a comparable effect of encouraging other staff back to private vehicle travel. Furthermore,
based on the proposed daily parking cost of $8.00, this would be only slightly more than the comparable
cost of a two-way bus or train fare from within the Redcliffe Peninsular ($6.40, assuming travel at peak
times) and comparable with a fare from outside the Redcliffe Peninsular if needing to cross 2 zones of
the Translink network ($7.80). As such, it is expected that most staff would be unlikely change their
mode of travel due to the comparative costs and greater convenience of driving.
· L� ��� � ��� !� ���� - ��� �"���"�������� �� � ��� �������� ���� ��� ��!� � �/�������� ����/� �� �!�����
parking demands. It is understood that at present there is a relatively high ‘failure to show’ rate for
outpatient and follow up services due to current difficulties experienced in finding suitable parking on-
site (or close by). By improving on-site capacity, this may result in reduced ‘failure to show’ rates
potentially increasing visitor parking demands. Once again, this could offset any mode shift changes of
visitors discouraged from private vehicle travel due to any new parking costs implemented.
· P�� ��/ ������� ������ ��� �""������ !������� �� ��� ��������� H� ����� w�"�� *�'�' ��� +&(" ��� µone
shown in Figure 5.2) are restricted to short term parking (i.e. 1 -2 hours maximum) and enforced by
MBRC to ensure appropriate compliance.
Regarding the latter point, given that a significant volume of parking is short duration visitor demands (< 2
hours), even with strict parking controls it is considered likely that there will be some proportion of hospital
related cars parking on street in the future.

T�� � ������� �� ��� �� ���� ���" ��� ��/ ��-site incurs costs whilst on-street parking doesn’t, as there will
always be a proportion of visitors willing to walk extra distance even if to avoid small parking costs. On this
basis, it is assumed that parking within at least the immediate streets surrounding the site which are
currently time restricted at present (Recreation Street, Anzac Ave, Silvyn Street, Sheehan Street) will
continue into the future. Reviewing the parking inventory data, these streets currently provide capacity for
approximately 250 cars.
As such, for forecasting future parking needs of the Redcliffe Hospital it is presumed that at least 250 cars of
the parking demand will be accommodated on-street. On this basis, the required on-site parking supply
would be:
· Short Term Expansion: 1-2&( ��� total demand – 250 cars on-street = 1,100 car spaces on-site
· Long Term Expansion: 2,200 cars total demand – 250 cars on-street = 1,950 car spaces on-site
The capacity of the Multi-Storey Car Park to be delivered as part of the Short Term expansion should
therefore be selected to ensure a total parking supply of 1,100 car spaces is achieved on-site.
Once this Multi-Storey Car Park is established, it is then expected that a future 850 car spaces will need to be
delivered to satisfy parking demands associated with the Long Term Expansion.
7.4 Sensitivity Testing for Bed Types
I� � ����� ���� ���� ����� � !����� �������� ��/�����/ whether hospital capacity (and therefore parking
supply) should be based either including or excluding day beds. The historical theory behind excluding day
beds from hospital capacity is that these beds are expected to generate reduced parking demands given less
demand for visitors. It is TTM’s view, however, that this is offset by the higher turnover of patients (each
patient potentially generating parking demands) and potentially higher levels of staffing to keep day beds
turning over. As such, determining future parking needs based on total number of beds (including day beds)
is considered acceptable.
Regardless, sensitivity testing has been completed to show what impact (if any) omitting day beds from
parking demand calculations would make. A further scenario was also testing assessing also the exclusion of
Emergency Department beds/stations has also been conducted.
The results of this this sensitivity assessment is outlined in Table 7.2.

êèîèôèõìèé ö÷øêùúûüý
±s
Table 7.2: Sensitivity Testing Bed Types for Future Parking Demands
As can be seen in Table 7.2, if day beds or Emergency Department beds are excluded from parking demand
calculations this would increase the ‘per bed’ existing parking demand rate up to 4-4.5 cars per bed.
However, when considered in the context of the future Short Term and Long Term expansion periods this
would have minimal impact on future parking demands overall. A parking demand of 1,350 cars would still
be expected as part of the Short Term Expansion scenario and 2,200 cars would be the ‘worst case’ for the
Long Term expansion scenario.
On this basis, adopting the rate of 3.81 cars per bed (inclusive of day beds and emergency department beds)
for forecasting future parking demands/needs is still considered appropriate.
Notwithstanding the above, it is recognised that the forecasted future parking demands for the Long Term
expansion is likely to be many years away (15 years based on an indictive 2031-32 horizon). Given the large
potential for changes in personal mobility to occur over this time (i.e. due to emerging technologies, change
in peoples travel habits, car ownership) the parking demands indicated should be treated as indicative only.
It would be prudent to reassess parking demands (through similar studies to this) as the Redcliffe Hospital
progressively expands over the coming years to ensure demands are accurately reflected and in particular to
quantify impacts of the parking/travel demand strategies (if implemented) as is discussed in Section 7.5.

Redcliffe Hospital, options should be considered to reduce private vehicle travel reliance.

T�� ����� ���� ultimately flow on to reducing the parking demands and therefore burden placed on parking
infrastructure into the future. It would be unsustainable to continue to expand parking capacity infinitely
into the future to account for future increases to hospital capacity.
With regards to this, it is recognised there are limitations to achieving such reductions in parking demands.
In particular:

currently sustained over the majority of a typical weekday period. As such, it is unlikely that any changes
to site operations (i.e. staggering shift change-overs further) will have a notable reduction to peak
parking demands.
· T�� �������� �� ��� ��������� H� ����� ��� ������ �� ���� ���!�� ������ns means that encouraging
significant mode shift away from private vehicle travel is unlikely to occur. There is currently a very high
private vehicle mode split of ~95% (as shown in Section 6) which compares to the Redcliffe SA2 average
of ~85%. This suggest that even if mode shift away from private vehicles is can be encouraged for
Redcliffe Hospital staff, this would likely only work to the extent of reducing mode split to a level
consistent with the average Redcliffe working population (i.e. 95% to 85%). Greater reductions to private
mode split travel would likely require fundamental changes to travel habits of people working in the
Redcliffe SA2 area (such as through significantly increasing range of alternativity transportation options)
which is something outside of the control of the Redcliffe Hospital itself. Even if, as a best-case scenario,
a 10% reduction to private vehicle mode share for staff was achieved to align with the Redcliffe SA2, this
would only potentially translate to a 7-8% reduction in on-site parking demands given the proportion of
parking generate by visitors also. Reducing visitor private vehicle travel is considered just as difficult to
achieve (if not more) than for staff travel due to the nature patients typically being vulnerable or of ill-
health and therefore unlikely to opt for alternative transport options such as walking, cycling or public
transport.
Regardless of the above, potential ways to promote travel mode shift away from private vehicles for the
Redcliffe Hospital could be encouraged. The following initiatives therefore would be worth exploring as part
of any future travel and parking management reviews:
· × ��$�� ���/ � ��������� �� ����� ������ $� �� ��!��� the Redcliffe Peninsular and provide staff with a

9 Site 7 Car Park High Level Traffic Review
9.1 Introduction
T�� ���´��� ���"’s architect (GHD Woodhead) has prepared a concept design of the proposed Multi-Storey
Car Park in the Option 7 area of the site. The capacity of this Multi-Storey Car Park has been resolved based
on:
· T�� �equired parking supply to meet the short term need of 1,100 car spaces total within the Redcliffe
Hospital Campus.
· A�� ���������� �������� �� ������� ��� �� � car spaces through reconfiguration of internal access and
parking areas on-site deemed necessary to support a new Multi-Storey Car Park.
The design concept prepared by GHD Woodhead is for a 4-level Multi-Storey Car Park with a total capacity
for 603 car spaces. To facilitate this car park, it is expected that a total of 200 existing at-grade car spaces
(within Areas A, B and C of the site) will be removed. As such, at the completion of this car park the on-site
parking supply will include:
· 972 ��� ���� ������ A��� A- u- w (Multi-Storey Car Park) and D which is the ‘main’ car park for the site.
This represents a formal increase of 400 car spaces compared to the current provision within this area of
the Redcliffe Hospital Campus.
· 14& ��� ���� ������ the remaining Areas E, F, G, H and I of the Redcliffe Hospital Campus.
· 1,118 car spaces total within the Redcliffe Hospital Campus
To provide sufficient flexibility for allow future easy expansion to parking capacity, the design of the Multi-
Storey Car Park will also allow for a ‘typical’ floor plate and ramping system which can be replicated with
additional levels on top of the proposed 4-level design.
A copy of the GHD Woodhead design concept plans is included in Appendix F.
Further discussion on high level internal and external traffic engineering considerations related to the
provision for this new Multi-Storey Car Park (and associated changes to rest of the on-site parking within the
Redcliffe Hospital) is provided as follows.
