6.1.6.         Development Traffic Distribution
For each use, the entry and exit movements are split evenly with 50% entry and exit
movements. Alternative fuel, convenience and food facilities along the Bruce Highway are
located in approximately 30km north of the site in Kybong and approximately 30km south of
the site in Forest Glen.

TTM have considered the spatial distribution of traffic and note the majority of traffic is likely
to access the site from the south and east. As such, TTM have applied a low percentage of
entry and exit movements to and from the north (10-20%).

The majority of traffic on Myall Street passing the Holts Road intersection incorporates
movements from the northbound off ramp. These movements have been predicted by DTMR
to be approximately 3 times greater than movements to the northbound on ramp. As such
TTM have applied a higher percentage of entering movements from the south (45-55%) than
the east (30-40%). Exit movements are considered to be generally in the direction of Cooroy
and as such, TTM have applied a higher percentage of movements in this direction.

Table 6.2 shows the estimated traffic distributions and movements to and from the proposed
development. Entry and exit movements are evenly split, therefore, the estimated movements
in the AM and PM peak will be the same.

Figure 6.1 shows estimated development traffic movements based on:

          Traffic volumes in Table 6.2;
          Drop in trips from traffic already travelling on Myall Street (20% of 2009 through
           volumes); and
          Excluding drop in trips from the industrial use (10%).
