Figure 2-3 Traffic Survey Locations
The intersection surveys were collected for 24 hours each day, for 7 days from Wednesday 12th
March, 2014 to Tuesday 18th March 2014. The raw data for each survey has been included in
Appendix A, whilst the daily approach volumes for the Top Forestry Road / Old Ceylon Road and
the Top Forestry Road / King Parrot Lane intersections have been summarised in Table 2-1 and
The data in the table above shows that the roads in the immediate vicinity of the subject site are
low volume roads which would appear typical of the rural nature of the surrounding land uses.
Peak daily traffic volumes on Old Ceylon Road are less than 300 vehicles per day while on Top
Forestry Road between Old Ceylon Road and King Parrot Lane the daily traffic movements are
generally less than 150 vehicles per day.
