(2) How many infringement notices have been issued for vehicles parking in loading bays without permission for each suburb in (a) 2008 and (b) 2009.

(3) How many vehicles in Canberra are permitted to park in loading bays (parking for goods carrying vehicles).

Mr Stanhope: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1) The number of Loading Zones in the ACT

Loading zones have been extracted from current data within the TAMS Traffic Control Device (TCD) Grid Inventory depicting permanent standard loading zone signage. This TCD dataset is updated on a daily basis.

TCD dataset limitations:

• Excludes temporary loading zones (approx 50 per annum) that are authorised for construction / road works via Temporary Traffic Management (TTM) arrangements.

• Excludes TCD data for universities; hospitals; Defence land; some private carparks; underground parking at Parliament House; Botanical Gardens and generally private leases which are not maintained in the TCD Grid Inventory dataset.

• Data is as up to date as the data received by TAMS.

These limitations mean that there may be loading zone infringements issued in suburbs where the current TCD data record of loading zones does not identify a loading zone in that suburb.

The number of Loading Zones in the ACT extracted from the TCD Grid Inventory is as follows:
