1          Introduction
SLR Consulting Australia Pty Ltd (SLR) has been engaged by Stockwell Development Group Pty Ltd (Stockwell) to
provide traffic engineering advice and prepare a Traffic Impact Statement (TIS) as part of a proposed childcare
centre to be located on Lot 4 within the Noosa Business Centre in Noosaville. Plans of the proposal are provided
at Appendix A for reference.

The intent of this TIS is to document this advice and assess the consistency of the proposed works against
relevant design standards and good engineering practice to inform Noosa Shire Council’s assessment of a
planning application to facilitate the subject development. Specifically, this document considers the car parking,
access and servicing treatments proposed for the subject site.


2          Subject Site
2.1        Site Context
The subject site is located on Lot 4 within the broader Noosa Business Centre development and fronts an
extension of Hofmann Drive which is currently under construction. Ultimately, Hofmann Drive will be extended
to connect with Walter Hay Drive to the east in addition to the current connection to Eenie Creek Road to the
north, with the site also bound by open space (protected via covenant) and a pedestrian access easement to the
northwest, Lot 3 to the north and Lot 5 to the east. It is understood that Lot 5 is intended to be developed to
provide a swim school, with the ultimate use of Lot 3 unknown at the time of writing.

The location of the subject site is shown in Figure 1, with the development within the local government
jurisdiction of Noosa Shire Council (Council). Accordingly, a review of Council’s Enterprise Mapping System
suggests that the subject site is located within Precinct 5A – Business Park Precinct of the Noosa Business Centre
Precinct.

3          Development Overview
3.1        Yield
Based on the plans prepared by Elevation Architecture dated 17 May 2022 (a copy of which is provided at
Appendix A), the subject development is proposed to consist of a childcare facility of a capacity as shown in
Table 2.

Table 2      Proposed Childcare Centre Capacities
 Development Metric                                                                   Capacity
 Number of children                                                                 94 children
 Number of staff                                                                       15 staff


3.2        Car Parking
A total of 27 car parking spaces plus 1 SRV bay are proposed to be provided off-street, consisting of the following:
          19 set down and pick up spaces for child drop off/pick up;
          7 staff parking spaces, one of which is tandem;
          1 persons with disability space;
          1 SRV space.

In addition to the above, a designated turnaround bay is proposed to facilitate three-point turning manoeuvres
within the car park aisle. Refer to Appendix B for the swept path assessment of this manoeuvre.

3.3        Bicycle Parking
The site plan includes the provision of two bike racks located in close proximity to the secured entrance, with
capacity to house up to 10 bicycles simultaneously.

3.4        Site Access
Vehicular access to the site will be facilitated via a driveway crossover on Hofmann Drive as shown on Figure 2,
with a median break and auxiliary right-turn lane provided as part of the Hofmann Drive extension to
accommodate vehicles entering the site from the east.

A separate pedestrian access will also be provided to Hofmann Drive as shown on Figure 2, to encourage active
transport use and to improve safety. Along the north-western boundary, a 3m shared path facility is proposed
to facilitate a future connection to the Noosa Civic Shopping Centre.


4          Design Considerations
The design of internal car parking and circulation facilities has been reviewed against the relevant requirements
of Council’s planning scheme and/or the AS2890 suite of Australian Standards as summarised within Table 3.

5          Car Parking Considerations
The car parking requirements for childcare centres of the size proposed herein as specified within Table 9.4.1.4
of Noosa Plan 2020 (the Plan) is summarised within Table 4.

                            15 staff    1 space per 2 employees                                             7.5 spaces

The proposed design consists of 27 parking spaces which is three (3) less than Council’s probable solution as per
Table 4 above. As such, the following information is provided to demonstrate the provision of slightly fewer
parking spaces will still provide an acceptable outcome for Council.

5.1        Located within Business Park Precinct
The proposed Childcare centre is located within a designated Business Park precinct as per the Plan. From SLR’s
practical experience it would be expected that a greater than typical proportion of parents would either work
within this precinct, or at the Noosa Civic shopping centre. In situations such as these, it is often the case that
parents will park at their work location, walk their children to the Childcare centre, leave the pram within the
designated pram room, then walk back to their workplace to commence work. This, in turn reduces parking
demand and provides reasonable justification for a slight reduction in car parking supply. Note, the proposed
site plan provides for a designated pram room to facilitate parents leaving their prams at the Childcare centre
while they work.

5.2        Childcare Parking Rates Comparison
SLR have undertaken a car parking rate comparison of five (5) south-east Queensland Council’s along with Noosa
Shire for Childcare centres. This comparison is presented at Table 5 below.

 Lot 4, Noosa Business Centre




Out of the five (5) Council’s outside of Noosa Shire, four (4) of these use a Childcare parking rate that equates
to less parking spaces required when applying a yield of 94 children and 15 staff. Across all five (5) Council
jurisdictions, the average car parking provision results in 26.4 spaces, which is also less than what’s proposed
for the subject site.

5.3        Noosa Plan 2020
The Noosa Plan 2020 (the Plan) sets out Council’s strategic intent, amongst other things, for shaping and growing
Noosa Shire in alignment with key values to preserve the Shire’s natural resources and landscapes. The strategic
intent for Transport within the Plan describes prioritising the movement of people and goods rather than cars,
with an immediate focus on delivering infrastructure to support the movement of pedestrians, cyclists, motor
scooters and public transport.

With the above in mind, by Council accepting a slight reduction in parking provision, this decision would be
considered to support the strategic intent for Transport, by further encouraging mode shift from single-
occupancy vehicle use to active and public transport use.


6          Bicycle Parking Considerations
The Plan sets out a probable solution for bicycle parking as follows:
          Community activity:
              a) one space per 50m2 up to 500m2; and
              b) one space per 500m2 in excess of 500m2.
          All uses where not in conflict with QDC MP4.1 for major developments:
           Where five or more bicycle parking spaces is required, end-of-trip cycle facilities are provided at the
           following rate-
                a) one locker per two bicycle parking spaces; and
                b) one shower cubicle with ancillary change room per ten bicycle spaces or part thereof.

The proposed childcare centre consists of approximately 684.2m2 of GFA. Therefore, approximately 10 bicycle
parking spaces are recommended as the probable solution. The site plan depicts two bike racks located near the
secured entrance with each rack having capacity for approximately three (3) to five (5) bicycles simultaneously.
Nevertheless, during the fit out design of the facility, if these bicycle racks are deemed as insufficient, they can
be replaced with slightly larger racks as the space available can accommodate this.

The site plans also show a shower, as well as an Indoor Store and Staff Room which will have available space to
provide the required five (5) lockers. The provision of these end-of-trip facilities satisfies the requirements of
the Plan.

It is important to note, as the proposed site consists of a childcare centre, the proposed bicycle parking and end-
of-trip facilities would not be utilised by parents often, rather, they would more likely be used by staff. Therefore,
the probable solution stated within the Plan to provide 10 bicycle parking spaces are considered to be excessive
when considering only 15 staff members are planned as the total number of employees at the centre.

7          Traffic Considerations
7.1        Development Traffic Demand
Peak hour traffic demands have been forecast for the subject development based upon survey data provided
from QLD Government’s Open Data portal. From this portal, there were 17 Childcare centres that were surveyed
between 2006 and 2010 across Queensland, resulting in an average trip generation rate of 0.63 trips per child
for the peak hour. This equates to approximately 59 vph being generated in a peak hour period. In the broader
context of the precinct including the Noosa Civic shopping centre, this level of traffic generation is insignificant,
and it is not expected that further upgrades to what are currently planned would be required.

7.2        Site Access
The driveway crossover has been designed in accordance with Council’s Standard Drawing for Heavy duty vehicle
crossing type B2.

Sight distance requirements for driveways used by commercial vehicles are prescribed within AS2890.2. For a
frontage road speed of 50km/h as per Hofmann Drive, a sight distance from the centre of the driveway to
oncoming traffic (either direction along Hofmann Drive) must achieve a minimum of 69m. A desktop assessment
has been undertaken utilising NearMap to check the available sight distance from the proposed access. Refer to
Figure 3 below.

Figure 3     Sight Distance Desktop Assessment (Source: NearMap, dated 13 November 2021)




The above figure depicts the sight distance envelopes for a vehicle waiting stationary in the centre of the
driveway with a 3m setback from the Hofmann Drive kerb alignment. If a significant obstruction were to be
located within these envelopes, it would indicate a possible non-compliance to AS2890.2, particularly if that
obstruction could not be removed. Upon inspection of these envelopes on NearMap, it is evident that there are
no significant obstructions to driver sight lines located within the two envelopes and it can be concluded that
the site access is in compliance with AS2890.2.


8          Pedestrian Considerations
Access to the proposed Childcare centre for staff and/or parents walking can utilise the future 2m wide footpath
located on the north-eastern side of Hofmann Drive. For people catching public transport to Noosa Civic
shopping centre and then walking to the proposed site, a future 3m shared path is proposed along the western
boundary connecting Hofmann Drive with the shopping centre. This pedestrian and cyclist connection would
utilise the reserved pedestrian easement to the north.

9          Servicing Considerations
The Plan does not specifically prescribe any refuse collection requirements. As such, it is proposed that the
collection of refuse occurs on-street, alleviating any conflicts with parents and children within the car parking
area.

Similarly, the Plan does not specifically prescribe any requirements to provide commercial vehicle parking, other
than to say: ‘the layout of the development provides adequate, clearly defined and easily accessible (b) loading
and manoeuvring areas for delivery and service vehicles’. This requirement is from the Driveways and Parking
Code under Performance Outcome 7 (PO7). In response to this requirement, the development proposes one
SRV parking space to facilitate the delivery of groceries which is anticipated to occur at most once per day during
operating hours, avoiding peak times during the drop-off and pick-up of children. Other deliveries that may be
required will occur outside of operating hours. Refer to Appendix B for swept paths demonstrating the safe
turnaround and manoeuvring of an SRV vehicle into and out of the proposed SRV parking space.


10         Code Response
The traffic and transport aspects of the proposed development have been assessed against the relevant
requirements of the following codes included within the Noosa Plan 2020:
          Driveways and Parking Code.
          Transport Code.

Responses to each of these codes are provided at Appendix C and confirm that the subject development is
generally consistent with relevant code requirements.


11         Summary
SLR has been engaged by Stockwell to provide traffic engineering advice and prepare a Traffic Impact Statement
as part of a proposed Childcare facility located on Hofmann Drive on Lot 4 within the Noosa Business Precinct in
Noosaville, as shown on development plans provided at Appendix A. Based on the assessment documented
herein, the following can be concluded:
          Internal access, circulation and parking infrastructure is generally designed in accordance with relevant
           standards and meets the functional requirements of the development.
          The proposed supply of car parking is three (3) less than what’s prescribed within the Plan. However,
           a slight reduction of parking supply can be justified based on:
              the development is located within the Business Park Precinct which will likely attract parents who
               also work within this Precinct and can park at their workplace and walk to/from the Childcare centre
               and store their prams during the day.
              A comparison of five (5) other SEQ Council’s resulted in an average parking supply of 26.4 spaces of
               which this proposed development meets.
              A slight reduction in parking supply aligns with the Plan’s Strategic Intent for Transport.
          The subject development provides for a sufficient amount of bicycle parking, along with suitable end-
           of-trip facilities, noting that the Plan’s requirement for 10 spaces is considered excessive.

         The proposed development’s traffic generation is considered insignificant and is unlikely to provide a
          material impact on local traffic conditions relative to the traffic demands generated by the broader
          Noosa Civic shopping centre. Consequently, a code-level assessment not including a detailed
          operational assessment of the surrounding road network is considered to be acceptable.
         The site access has been designed in accordance with Noosa’s Standard Drawing for Heavy duty vehicle
          crossing type B2 and complies with the sight distance requirements of AS2890.2.
         Pedestrian facilities have been designed to connect with the Noosa Civic shopping centre and to
          encourage active transport and public transport use.
         Refuse collection is proposed to be undertaken along Hofmann Drive to minimise interactions with
          parents, children and heavy vehicles entering the site.
         The subject development provides for one SRV parking space to facilitate the functional requirements
          of the site.
         The code responses provided at Appendix C confirm that the subject development is generally in
          accordance with the relevant requirements of the Noosa Plan 2020.
