3.2 Road Planning
Stockwell Development Group Pty Ltd have proposed several road and infrastructure upgrades to be
constructed within the immediate vicinity of the development site. As shown in the plans in Appendix C it is
proposed that three new roads will be constructed linking to the southern end of Hofmann Drive. This will
include two additional intersections within the new road network providing access to Noosa Civic Shopping
Centre and Walter Hay Drive.

New Hofmann Drive (New Road A) will be a two lane, dual carriageway. This road will join to the southern 4-
legged roundabout that will connect New Road B, New Road C and continue to the existing southern
roundabout at Walter Hay Drive.

Proposed New Road B will provide individual access to lots 10-16.

Proposed New Road C (private road) will connect the southern and northern roundabout while providing
access to lots 3, 7, 8 and 9. The northern roundabout will provide access to Noosa Civic Shopping Centre and
the existing northern roundabout at Walter Hay Drive.

It is proposed that concrete footpaths will be provided on both sides of the new roads.
