        (c)   Development minimises the environmental and social impacts of transport on the natural and urban environment.
        (d)   Development contributes to improving walking, cycling, bus, train and ferry modes and the use of motor cycles and motor
              scooters to minimise the use of the private car.
        (e)   Development provides a road hierarchy that supports effective bus route connectivity.
        (f)   Development does not adversely impact on the role of the major road network, particularly the Highway, in the efficient
              movement of freight through the Shire.
        (g)   Development does not increase the scale of the road network beyond that currently planned.
        (h)   Development provides for safe access to existing or future public passenger transport facilities.
        (i)   Development ensures that vehicle access does not compromise the capacity and safety of the road system.
        (j)   Development provides appropriate noise attenuation buffering between sensitive uses and arterial roads or rail corridors.
        (k)   New infrastructure is compatible with existing infrastructure, designed and constructed to a standard that meets community
              expectations and optimises whole of life cycle costs.
        (l)   Roads are designed and constructed to satisfy their specified functions and provide an appropriate level of flood immunity
              (including local flooding on roads).
        (m)   Intersections and access points are designed and constructed to give a low key village look and feel rather than reliance on
              signalisation.

  Traffic generation from development is considered in a localised    Where the development leads to the need to increase transport
  and a Shire wide context to ensure that—                            infrastructure in the Shire, the development contributes to the
  (a)    the transport network has the capacity to safely and         transport network in accordance with Council’s infrastructure
         efficiently accommodate projected movements;                 network planning.

  (b)    development does not have an adverse impact upon the
                                                                      Editor’s Note— Council may require the preparation of a

  (c)    development includes measures to improve transport
         options rather than relying on the widening of roads.        AO1.2
                                                                      Development provides for high trip generating land uses, such as

  Editor’s Note — The Noosa Shire road hierarchy is depicted on       AO2.2
  Regional Infrastructure Overlay Maps.                               Collector and local streets are provided to support short trips for
