                                                                                                Traffic Report Rev B



    •    Columns are positioned within the zone which is 750mm to 1,750mm from the open end of the parking space
         for manoeuvring to/from the space and pedestrian access to/from the vehicle, as required under the provisions
         of AS2890.1; and
    •    A terminated aisle extension of 1m has been allowed for, to accommodate vehicle manoeuvring to/from the end
         parking spaces.
In summary, the carpark layout is efficient and legible, and designed in accordance with the relevant Australian
Standards.


3.4 Servicing and Refuse Collection
As shown in the plans included as Attachment A and the extract provided as Figure 3.4 below, a servicing area is
proposed to the north of the building, at the basement level. This area will be accessed via the driveway on Val Crescent,
and would be adequate to accommodate on-site manoeuvring of a heavy rigid vehicle (HRV) and a rear-loading refuse
collection vehicle (RCV) as shown in the vehicle tracking diagrams included at Appendix C, enabling these vehicles to
enter and exit the site in a forward gear.
The grading of the access down to the servicing area from Val Crescent has been designed in accordance with the
requirements of AS2890.2, to ensure that:
    • the maximum ramp gradient does not exceed the maximum permitted for service vehicles (i.e. 1:6.5);
    • the change in gradient does not exceed 1:16 or 6.25%, to avoid vehicle underside scraping; and
    • the gradient within the servicing area is essentially flat, therefore does not exceed the maximum permitted
        under the provisions of AS2890.2.
Overall, the proposed servicing / refuse collection arrangements are appropriate given the nature and scale of the
development.
