390 David Low Way, Peregian Beach (The Retreat)                             Sight Distance Report



    9. Conclusions and Recommendations
360 Civil Consulting has completed an assessment of the vehicle and pedestrian sight
distances and whether these sight lines will be impeded by the construction of a new stone
wall at the entrance to The Retreat.

360 Civil Consulting conclude the following: -

       Vehicle sight distances will not be impeded by the proposed stone wall;
       Pedestrian sight distances are currently inadequate on the southern side of the
        driveway and the proposed stone wall will not improve or resolve this inadequate
        pedestrian sight distance; and
       The existing timber bollards are located within 0.5m of the edge of path which is not
        in accordance with Austroads guidelines.

As a result of this investigation, 360 Civil Consulting recommend that the following occur: -

Southern side of the driveway

    1. The proposed stone wall be constructed along the boundary of the clear zones
       shown in Figure 11;
    2. Existing vegetation in the clear zone area be removed / reduced in height; and
    3. Any new vegetation in the clear zone area be low planting (maximum height of
       approximately 300mm high and maintained at this level).

Southern and Northern side of the driveway

    4. On both sides of the driveway, the proposed stone wall maintain a minimum
       clearance of 0.5m from the edge of the existing pedestrian path.
