RFI - Traffic Impact Statement · MCU23/0008

The proposed caretaker’s car space is designed at 2.4m width (with clearance around
the car space provided as per Figure 5.2 of AS 2890.1) and 5.4m length. This car space
has access to a 6.1m wide aisle behind it.


6.2 Office car spaces
Based on AS 2890.1, the critical user class for the office car spaces is 2 (medium-term
parking), assuming they are also used by visitors. User class 2 car spaces must be
designed at 2.5m width, 5.4m length and 5.8m aisle width. Alternatively, the car space
can be designed at 4.8m of length, where parking is to a low kerb which allows 600 mm
overhang (provided the first 600 mm immediately behind it is unobstructed, is not
another parking space and is not required as a footway or for some similar purpose). In
addition, Figure 5.2 of AS 2890.1 outlines the design envelop around parked vehicles to
be kept clear of columns, walls and obstructions.

The proposed office car spaces are designed to satisfy the above-identified minimum
dimensional requirements (including the reduced length at 4.8m with 600mm overhang
into the grass-patched area beyond the wheelstop).


6.3 Disability-accessible car space
Based on AS 2890.6 – 2009, the disability-accessible car spaces should be designed as
follows:

   •   The disability-accessible car parking space should be designed at 2.4m width
       and 5.4m length (with 5.8m aisle width);
   •   A shared space of equal dimensions shall be provided adjacent to the car
       parking space; and
   •   Both the car parking space and the shared space should indicate appropriate line
       markings. The shared space should include a bollard in order to prevent
       motorists from parking at this location.

The proposed single disability-accessible car space complies with the above
requirements.
