Ben Lexcen Drive is a two lane road which is designated as a District Collector by the
Sunshine Coast Regional Council. Ben Lexcen Drive carries in the order of 400 vehicles
during each commuter peak hour, based upon manual traffic counts undertaken for the
purpose of this study on Wednesday 28 May 2008.

2.3.2 Grasstree Court _ :

Grasstree Court is a local access street providing access to a small neighbourhood
shopping centre located adjacent to the north east corner of the site and a church located at
the western end of Grasstree Court. ‘

An existing left stip lane provides access from Ben Lexcen Drive to Grasstree Court for
northbound vehicles. We understand that the existing left slip lane is not gazetted and was
constructed over private tand'which is the subject of this application. The architectural plans
indicate a realignment of this left slip lane to be fully contained within Council’s road reserve.
We understand Blue Care are currently attempting to resolve this encroachment with Syd
Jerram (Manager, Works Planning North) and Michael Hagan of Council's Assets and
Infrastructure Department.
