Minor Change Attachment 3 Traffic Engineering Advice

These potential uses also have a recommended parking rate of 1 space per 20m2 or part thereof of use
area thus no additional parking demand is expected to be created, whilst acknowledging trip generation
may differ.

We also note the adjoining premises to the south located at 36-40 Hofmann Drive has been recently
approved as an integrated medical centre (Council reference: MCU19-0017) and is likely to be the focus
for consolidation of these land uses. Thus if this adjacent development proceeds to construction, it is
expected that there will be limited the demand for this Medical use on the subject site.

We also note that there is potential for parking demands to be reduced further when considering the
further interaction of the various uses across the site, including:
    • The car parking on-site will also have elements of cross utilisation:
             o Visitors to the retail / showroom uses or staff already on-site may visit several tenancies
                 in a single visit. These linked trips (e.g. Showroom / Food, Showroom / Showroom,
                 Office / Food and Gym / Office) would result in a reduced overall parking demand when
                 compared to singular use tenancies.
    • The food and beverage uses are expected to provide a primarily ancillary function to the other
         uses on site. The peak demand is expected to occur during the middle of the day or later in the
         evening; and
    • The Indoor Recreation (Children’s Play Centre) use is expected to be busier around the middle of
         the day on both weekdays and weekends.

The proposed car parking provisions are expected to be appropriate to cater for a combination of land
uses due to the varying parking demands for the various potential uses proposed across the site.


Disability Carparking Review
The proposed development plan includes eight (8) PWD carparking spaces.

The Noosa Plan specifies that PWD carparking spaces are to comply with the Australian Standard for
Off-street Parking for People with Disabilities: (AS2890.6). AS2890.6 states that the PWD parking
provision is to comply with the Building Code of Australia (BCA). Noting the land uses proposed, the
BCA states that one (1) PWD space should be provided for every 50 car parking spaces or part thereof.

We reviewed the proposed PWD car parking provisions against the requirements of the BCA, as
summarised in Table 3.

       Total Carparking
                                                        Provision Rate                               Required               Provided        Difference
       Spaces Provided
                                                  1 PWD per 50 parking
  347 carparking spaces                                                                               7 spaces              8 spaces             +1
                                                        spaces

The proposed PWD parking provision therefore meets the provision requirements of AS2890.6.
