Appendix D Site Access & Intersection Investigation

 Summary

 Proposed driveway access

 Contour Consulting Engineers have undertaken a sight distance investigation for the proposed driveway
 location relevant to a proposed subdivision of Lot (Lot 147 M371248). The proposed driveway will service a
 single rural residential lot and as such, turning traffic volumes will be very low (estimated 1-2 peak hour
 movement).
 Based on our investigations, the proposed driveway location is considered to comply with the requirements
 of AS2890.1 with only minor vegetation Clearing on eastern verge of Uhlmanns Rd. it is also considered to
 comply with the requirements of IPEWA Standard Drawing RS-056 with significant vegetation clearing. It is
 recommended the proponent request Council confirm what standard applies to this situation.

 Impact to existing road network (intersection of Uhlmanns Rd and Northmount Rd)

 The impact to the existing road network in considered to be negligible (additional 1-2 peak hour
 movements) however it is recommended that a Traffic Impact Assessment be undertaken to confirm the
 additional movements do not compromise the operation of the exiting intersection (ie uncontrolled).
