Traffic Generation

4.2.1 Existing Uses
The traffic surveys counted existing traffic movements into and out of the subject site as follows:
w= weekday evening peak hour

13 arrivals

14 departures
a= _— Saturday peak hour

7 arrivals

9 departures

These observed traffic movements are of a similar order to the numbers expected based on published trip
rates. These movements have been removed from the background traffic flows in the post-development

scenarios before the predicted development traffic has been added.
4.2.2 Proposed Uses

The peak hour traffic generation for the proposed uses has also been estimated based on published trip

generation rates (sourced from the DTMR and the New South Wales Transport Roads and Maritime

Services) and PTT survey information as follows:

== —_ Service Station and Shop- 66 trips per 100m? GFA for service stations with a convenience store in
urban areas, adopted from the DTMR Road Planning and Design Manual 1" Edition

ws Restaurant / Cafe — 5 trips per 100m’ GFA, adopted from the DTMR Road Planning and Design
Manual 1* Edition

wa Tyre and Mechanical - 1.9 trips per service bay on weekday peak hours and 1.5 trips per service
bay on weekend peak hours, adopted from surveys, undertaken by PTT in 2004 at a tyre service
facility located at Stafford, Brisbane

w= Industrial / Retail Uses - 4.2 trips per 100m? GFA on weekday peak hours and 5.6 trips per 100m?
GFA on weekend peak hours, adopted from the New South Wales Transport Roads and Maritime

Services Guide to Transport Generating Developments'.

In terms of the industrial / retail uses, we have adopted the trip rate associated with a major hardware and
building supplies store for the entire 1,663m? GFA use. This is considered to be a very conservative
approach as the traffic generation associated with this use is significantly higher than rates for industrial

uses.
