The amended development plans demonstrate a suitable permeable pedestrian connection between the
proposed car park and the existing school campus, as shown in Figure 4. The proposed pedestrian
connection would be 1.2m to 2.4m wide. TTM considers this connection width acceptable as the expected
turnover in students and staff at one given time will be minimal.

The proposed pedestrian connection would be adjacent to the access roadway to the school and the aquatic
centre with no sharp turns. The pathway would be clearly visible from the road, existing car park and
proposed car park and TTM expect that suitable passive or natural surveillance would be available.

The pathway would provide a direct route between the car park and the school; therefore, the route would
be legible and allow people to easily find their way.

TTM consider the proposed pedestrian connection between the proposed car park and the existing school
campus to be suitable to cater for the needs of the staff and students utilising the school car park.
