Referecence Document Traffic Engineering Assessment Report 22 March 2023 131998.98121.5
Following adoption of the above assumptions, the expectation of traffic and parking operations for school
holiday camps includes:
38 staff cars; 76 vehicle trips per day.
4 buses, drop-off Monday, pick-up Friday; 8 trips on these days.
64 parent cars parked for drop-off on a Monday (total car parking demand 102 cars at this time).
80 parent cars parked for pick-up on a Friday (total car parking demand 118 cars at this time).
160 vehicle trips generated by parent pick-up / drop-off on a Monday and Friday (in and out).
The proposed 126 formal and informal car parks can accommodate the anticipated peak car parking
demand for the school holiday camp operations.
3.3 Weekend Use
Advice has been provided based on operations at CYC Burleigh and indicates for weekend groups, typical
arrival is 3 persons per car. As such, the 299 person capacity could be expected to generate a parking
demand of 100 cars, plus staff.
It may be that weekend users will coordinate buses for their arrival and departure, which would reduce
their traffic impact. This has, however, not been included in the traffic assumptions.
These groups typically arrive on a Friday evening and depart around midday on a Sunday.
For weekend operations, it is assumed that there are less external staff required, as each group expected to
operate semi-independently. An allowance of 10 staff is included in the calculations (25% car pool).
Whilst there is no intention to limit the number of persons who can utilise the site on weekends, it has
been advised that groups currently utilising CYC Burleigh are typically around 50 persons. This would be an
average of 17 cars (3 persons per car).
The following summarises the expectations for weekend use based on the above, and assuming full
utilisation of the 299 beds:
100 cars for campers, arriving Friday, departing Sunday.
An allowance has been made for, say, 20 vehicle trips on a Saturday.
8 staff cars parked, arriving and departing each day, 16 trips per day.
Car parking demand of 108 vehicles.
3.4 Summary
Table 1 has been prepared to summarise the parking generation anticipated from adoption of the first
principles approach outlined above. Table 2 sets out a summary of the anticipated traffic generation.
In reviewing the different utilisation during the school term and school holidays, it is noted:
School term: 40 weeks per year (77%).
School holidays: 12 weeks per year (23%).
