 Noosa Fair and Bowls Club Expansion

© 2013 - TTM Consulting Pty Ltd                                                       Reference No: 12SCT0068



7.         Public Transport, Pedestrian and Bicycle
           Facilities
It is anticipated that the public transport facilities located at the Noosa Heads Transit Centre
would adequately cater for the proposed development expansion. It is noted however that as the
Noosa Junction area grows, services may also have to increase to cater for higher public transport
demands. It is understood that Translink regularly monitor patronage at bus stations and would
increase the frequency of services if required.
It is understood that The Noosa Plan would refer to Austroads guidelines for bicycle storage
provision. The draft SCPS clearly identifies bicycle parking rates for each type of use. Table 10.1
shows the required Austroads and Draft SCPS bicycle parking rates for the proposed
development.

 Shopping Centre (584m )               1 / 300m and 1 per 500m               2 spaces / 100m

 Total                                 2 x Class 1 and 1 x Class 3           12

The shopping centre expansion will provide 16 bicycle parking spaces which exceeds the above
requirements and is therefore considered suitable.
Pedestrian access and facilities to and through the site will remain and are considered suitable.
