3.      Transport noise corridor
        Mandatory Part (MP) 4.4 of the Queensland Development Code (QDC) commenced on
        1 September 2010 and applies to building work for the construction or renovation of a
        residential building in a designated transport noise corridor. MP4.4 seeks to ensure that
        the habitable rooms of Class 1, 2, 3 and 4 buildings located in a transport noise corridor
        are designed and constructed to reduce transport noise. Transport noise corridor means
        land designated under Chapter 8B of the Building Act 1975 as a transport noise corridor.
        A free online search tool can be used to find out whether a property is located in a
        designated transport noise corridor.
        This tool is available online at:
        http://spp.dsdip.esriaustraliaonline.com.au/geoviewer/map/planmaking.
        This tool allows searches on a registered lot number and/or property address to
        determine whether and how the QDC applies to the land.
