Over 200 car spaces for retail, community and commercial use are proposed for 10 Selwyn Street. There are also 156 residential car spaces. Additional car spaces will provide community parking to help meet the parking demand currently experienced in Elsternwick.
Deliveries: The proposal allows for the supermarket to be serviced by smaller delivery trucks no more than 14.5 metres in length. We will propose deliveries between 6.00am and 9.00pm and will avoid school pick up and drop off times.
Access: Traffic lights are proposed to be installed at the intersection of Selwyn Street and Glen Huntly Road with pedestrian connection between Elsternwick Plaza and the proposed Cultural Precinct on Selwyn Street. The majority of cars will enter and exit the site via Selwyn Street from Glen Huntly Road, away from surrounding residential streets.
