Background
This Operational Works application seeks to gain approval for a second vehicle crossover to gain access down the side of the property to a rear shed. The property currently has a primary crossover servicing a double garage located at the front of the dwelling. The proposed driveway will be the secondary for the property.
Site Description
The property gains access from Outlook Dr which does not have a high demand for on-street parking. The verge has a very gentle slope up toward the property so achieving compliant crossover grades will not be an issue. The only clash with services is the location of the properties roof stormwater kerb adapter which will need to be relocated as part of the works. In addition there is an existing 1.2m wide footpath that crosses the front of the premises that will need to be considered in the proposed second crossover.
