    2. Vehicular Entry
Due to the informal road edge that does not include a kerb or channel and the level difference
between road edge and boundary, a driveway crossover that follows the Typical Profile Driveways
Access as per IPWEA drawing SEQ R-050 revision C is not possible. Therefore, we proposed a non-
standard driveway crossover which met the site conditions and providing a high point ranging from
140mm to 340mm above the edge of asphalt. As mentioned previously, we and the Client were
under the impression that this work as constructed was approved at the time of receiving the
Building Permit. This driveway crossover follows the same methodology as the majority of the
Plover Street properties accessed. This driveway crossover has been suitable for the user needs
for seven years and there has been no issues caused by road water.

The driveway access as constructed adopted the same methodology as all of the driveways located
to the Eastern frontage of Plover Street. In these cases, the access driveways slope away from the
road edge so as to follow the natural topography of the land. The subject site is atypical in nature
as the verge itself is not standard and quite informal.

Please contact the undersigned should you require further clarification of the above or attached.


Yours faithfully
