Driveways within the property:
(a) have a maximum gradient of 20% and vertical curves to
ensure no scraping for a standard vehicle; or
(b) have a maximum gradient of 25% provided—
(i) _ the length of the driveway steeper than 20% does
not exceed 6 metres; and
(ii) there is a change in gradient not less than 2 metres
in length and not greater than 12:5% at the ends of
the 25% section of the driveway.
Pog AO9

The driveway and crossover is designed without significant
alteration to the existing road reserve whereby the finished surface
level of the driveway is consistent in height with the existing height
of the road reserve.

Editor’s Note—Should the design not comply with the standard
drawings, including any cut or fill within the road reserve, an
operational works application to Council for a non-standard
driveway is required.

 

Materials

PO10

Driveways and crossovers are to be able to withstand loadings
from vehicles and the use of pavers is avoided.

A010
No pavers or permeable pavement systems are used within the
road reserve.

Editor’s Note—Examples of the types of pavers to avoid include
clay, concrete and permeable pavement products.

 

Surface water

PO11

Driveways are designed to:

(a) prevent water from ponding or entering buildings;
(b) provide an opportunity for filtering of stormwater prior to it
leaving the site; and

(c)

not reduce the stormwater carrying capacity of roadways.

AO11
Driveways have a minimum grade of 1% away from any adjoining
buildings and are formed to drain to landscaped areas.

 

Protection of infrastructure

PO12

Driveways do not damage or interfere with the location, function of,
or access to Council infrastructure.

A012
Driveways are located not less than 1.0 metre from stormwater
infrastructure.

Editor’s Note—If the driveway covers or is within 1.0 metre of
stormwater infrastructure, an operational works application to
Council for a non-standard driveway is required.

 

Streetscape and effect on traffic network
PO13

The visual impact of driveways on the streetscape and
surrounding area is minimised and significant adverse impacts
on the traffic network are avoided.
