Operational works application - 320 David Low Way Peregian Beach

 “Adamson Town Planning, specialising in providing higher order town planning advice”




Comment:
The proposed access will not adversely impact on the safety and operation of David Low Way
and the pedestrian footpath fronting the proposed dwelling. Access and egress to the dwelling
is to be in a forward gear. The applicant provided Traffic Engineering Advice prepared by Hayes
Traffic Engineering dated 17 August 2022, which has been accepted.

PO2
Driveways and crossovers:
    a) are suitable and safe for their intended use; and
    b) match Council infrastructure.

Comment:
The design of the access for the dwelling has been undertaken by Westera (RPEQ) and is
consistent with the approved plan, this being the Civil Works Plan, Drawing No. S21-110-C02,
Revision D, dated 22 August 2022. The driveway is suitable and safe for the intended use and
has been designed to match the existing concrete pathway fronting the site.

PO3
The number of driveways across pedestrian footpaths is minimised.

Comment:
A single access is being proposed for the dwelling minimising the impact on the pedestrian
footpath.

PO4
Vehicular access does not adversely impact on the capacity, operations, and maintenance of the
existing infrastructure.

Comment:
The proposed access driveway will not adversely impact on the capacity and operation of David
Low Way and would benefit from clear sightlines.

PO5
Vehicular access does not adversely impact on the health and integrity of existing landscaping
or native vegetation, where possible.

Comment:
The applicant has been diligently progressing with the detailed design of the dwelling, which
has taken some time, primarily because of the difficulties associated with developing this
significantly constrained site. This has impacted on the manner in which the dwelling can be
constructed and also meant the cost of construction needs to be carefully considered. The
construction phase for the dwelling will require a hoarding area to be established within the
road reserve fronting the property, which has been discussed previously.
