all works in a state-controlled road corridor.
Please refer to Attachment A for the findings on material questions of fact and the evidence or
other material on which those findings were based.

Further approvals
The Department of Transport and Main Roads also provides the following information in relation to
this approval:
1. Road Access Works Approval Required – Written approval is required from the department to
carry out road works that are road access works (including driveways) on a state-controlled road
in accordance with section 33 of the TIA. This approval must be obtained prior to commencing
any works on the state-controlled road. The approval process may require the approval of
engineering designs of the proposed works, certified by a Registered Professional Engineer of
Queensland (RPEQ). Please contact the department to make an application.
2. General advice:
a) It is to note that the presence of the "keep clear" does not give vehicles from the
proposed development site any priority when exiting or entering the property. The keep
clear markings are not a stop line. Vehicles travelling on the road are not required to give
way to vehicles entering or exiting the property. The Department note that th “Keep
Clear” line markin is to assist in the service requirements of the Fire Brigade (opposite
the subject site)
If further information about this approval or any other related query is required, the North Coast
Region Corridor Management Team should be contacted by email at
[email protected] or on (07) 5451 7055.

Decision Evidence and Findings
Findings on material questions of fact:
The objective of the Transport Infrastructure Act (1994), (TIA) requires the establishment
of a road regime that is safe and efficient.
Section 62 of the TIA provides for the Chief Executive of the Department of Transport
and Main Roads to make decisions about permitted road access locations between
particular land and a state-controlled road.
The application is for a development permit for a material change of use - multiple
dwelling (2 x dwellings, 11 x small dwellings), and for operational works – road work,
drainage work, stormwater, earthworks, landscaping and access.
The proposal includes a new access arrangement to the state-controlled road and is an
application under section 62A of the Transport Infrastructure Act (1994).
The subject site is immediately adjacent to Myall Street, a state-controlled road that is
not covered by a limited access policy at the site location.
Myall Steet at the subject site has a single lane southbound and has dual turning lanes
(a left and right turn lane) northbound to the intersection with Elm Street to the north,
separated by a painted median. There is a “keep clear” road marking in front of the
subject site for the fire brigade on the eastern side of the road. The posted speed limit at
the subject site is 50km/hr and the annual average daily traffic is 8,834 vehicles (2023).
