NOTE:

1. All appropriate permits must be obtained from relevant council, specifying crossing type,
construction materials, location, levels, surface finishes and dimensions, prior to any excavation.

2. Alternative materials for construction, other than reinforced concrete, refer to relevant council
for approval.

3. Crossing to be constructed square to the street alignment, wholly contained within the site
frontage from invert of channel to property boundary.

4. One access to be constructed per allotment unless otherwise approved by relevant Council.

5. To reduce impact on available street parking, consideration is to be given to visitor’s and
neighbouring property's parking needs when selecting a crossing location.

6. Crossing to be located clear of existing gully pits. where this cannot be achieved, the gully pit
and pipework may be relocated at the property owner's expense, subject to approval of the
relevant council.

7. Crossing to be located clear of all service authority's fittings, manholes and pits. Subject to
relevant Council approval, where this cannot be achieved, existing service pits are to be
contained within the area of new driveway, pit surface to match approved driveway finished
levels.

8. Kerb adaptors and associated roofwater drainage to be located clear of vehicular crossings.

9. Council will not relocate traffic islands or provide breaks in traffic islands to allow driveway

access.

. For water sensitive urban design verges, the vehicular crossing is subject to relevant council
design and approval.

. **Driveways must achieve a high point of 250mm above invert of kerb to ensure stormwater is
contained within the road reserve as per requirement of Q.U.D.M. (Queensland Urban Drainage
manual). This constraint may be varied upon the approval of the relevant Council.

. Under special circumstances Council may approve a rising grade of 1:6 max or falling grade
of 1:20 min Longitudinal grades along property boundary must allow for free drainage and
pedestrian safety.

Path zone width may vary to match existing concrete pathways and verge profiles.

Path earthworks adjoining concrete must be well compacted.

Earthworks cut and fill batters from edge of driveway or path to natural surface to be
maximum grade at 1 in 10 and fully turfed prior to council inspection.

Existing path to be longitudinally transitioned to new driveway at a maximum grade of 1 in 10.
Plain concrete surfaces to be heavy broom finished.

Decorative surfaces are subject to relevant council approval, where approved, to have a Smm
max depth variation in the finished surface profile. All finished surfaces of driveways are to
comply with the requirements of AS/NZS 3661.1 slip resistance of pedestrian surfaces.
Exposed aggregate finish subject to relevant council approval due to environmental reasons.

. Expansion joints to be 10mm thick full depth closed cell cross linked polyethylene foam (85 —

150 kg/m), or 8.5mm thick bitumen impregnated compressed granulated corkboard, installation
to manufacturers’ instructions. Seal surface of joint with a suitable polyurethane sealant.
Concrete surface tolerance to be, +8™™over 3 metre sections.

Concrete to be minimum grade N32 in accordance with AS 1379 and AS 3600.

Concrete construction to comply with the requirements of AS 3600, concrete code.
Reinforcement fabric to AS 1304, 50 top and edge cover, lap fabric 250.

Control joints are to be sealed with a low modulus self priming sealant to the manufacturers
specification. refer RS—065.

Formwork and reinforcement shall be in place and inspected and approved by the relevant
council prior to placement of concrete.

Maintenance of the crossings are the responsibility of the property owner.

Drawing to be read in conjunction with RS—049.

Cross fall of existing pavement adjacent to the driveway to be checked. If cross fall exceeds
3%, relevant Council will decide if driveway needs to be re-designed to ensure satisfactory
clearance for vehicles.

All dimensions are in millimetres unless shown otherwise.

These drawings have been developed in consultation between the participating Councils.
BEFORE USE, the user shall confirm that the drawing has been adopted by the appropriate Council.
