Based on the Council-recommended trip generation rates, the proposed Retail Business (Type 4)
development is expected to generate in the order of 599 trips (in and out) during the Saturday noon
peak period.

It is important to note however that not all trips associated with the development will be ‘new’ to the
local road network. As the retail portion of the development is expected to be convenience based, a
proportion of trips associated with this site will be drop-in trips.

That is, some trips to and from the development will be motorists travelling past or in close proximity to
the development as part of another trip (e.g. travelling home from work).

The Department of Transport and Main Roads’ (DTMR) Guide to Assessment of Road Impacts of
Development (GARID) Appendix F provides guidance in relation to the proportion of new and ‘drop-in’
trips.

The trip segmentation outlined in the GARID for the proposed land use is summarised in Table 3.3.
