We refer to DTMR memorandum dated 36-Atgtist204+3-and provide the following additional information:

Pearson’s Road Intersection:

CONSULTING

1. Swept paths for an appropriate vehicle should be checked to confirm that sufficient swept width is

available for the turning movements into and from Pearsons Road.
Provide drawing of vehicle swept paths.

Turn paths have been checked and provided in road functional drawing RF04.
2. Provide detail for footpath and power pole adjacent to the bus stop.

Proposed bus stop is clear of power pole and existing underground telecom pit. Power poles and telecom

pit are now shown on drawing.

3. Why is there a reduction in shoulder width as a vehicle turns left from Pearsons Road? Maintain

shoulder width through the intersection.
Refer attached drawing RFO2 for updated layouts

4, The new driveway needs to conform to the requirements of Austroads Part 4, Clause 7.2.3 ‘Rural

Property Access’. Provide detail.

Driveway access has been removed due to new estate access to be provided by others off Blue Wren
Place.

5. Rural bus shelter shown is to conform to the requirements of TransLink, refer to the Public
Transport Infrastructure Manual. Provide detail.

The bus shelter has been specified as Noosa shire council Rural bus shelter in accordance with condition

44 of existing DA approval No. 132007.2398.02

6. Why is the left turn treatment into Pearsons Road currently is shown as a BAL? Page 13 of the
Traffic Impact Assessment indicates that an AUL(S) is warranted for the future design traffic.

Provide justification for the proposed change.
