Figure 2:           SIGHT DISTANCE AT ELM STREET / ROSE GUM ROAD INTERSECTION


                        View to the East                                      View to the West




We have obtained 2016 average annual daily traffic (AADT) data from TMR for Elm Street from a counter
site located approximately 21km to the south-west of the intersection with Rose Gum Road. The (attached)
data shows that the 2016 AADT volumes on Elm Street were as follows:

         1,670 vehicles per day (vpd) travelling in the north-westbound direction
         2,175 vpd travelling in the south-eastbound direction
         3,845 vpd two-way
         9% heavy vehicles



PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
The proposed development comprises a new 52-bed residential care facility on the western portion of the
subject site. The new aged care facility would incorporate palliative, respite, and dementia care services,
with supporting administrative and operational facilities and a chapel and community hall (with capacity
to accommodate up to 80 people).

The proposed development would be supported by a total of 53 on-site parking spaces. The development
layout plan is shown in Figure 3 and is attached.

Access

It is proposed to retain vehicular access to the site from Elm Street and Rose Gum Road. Due to existing
sight distance constraints at the Elm Street / Rose Gum Road intersection, it is proposed that the existing
driveway to / from Elm Street be utilised as the primary site access, with Rose Gum Road forming a
secondary / emergency access.
