                                                                            Parking & Traffic Impact Assessment Report



3.2.2         Access Driveway and Internal Circulation
Width of the proposed driveways off Doonella Street are approximately 6m wide. The minimum width for
entry and exit driveways in AS2890 (Table 3.1) is 6m for entry and 4m to 6m for exit.
The layout provides good circulation with the ability to loop around the centre parking. There is only one blind
aisle which services six spaces adjacent to the entry.
The queuing space required at the entry is determined from AS2890.1 Table 3.3 with the Car Park capacity
of less than 100 vehicles, and Peak Hourly inflow for Generally Casual (short staying) and mixed patronage,
the first 100 cars shall be 3% of the capacity of the car park. For a car park with 54 spaces, 3% equates to
1.6 spaces. Taking a queue area of at least 2 spaces at 6m each, the queue area must be at least 12m.
There is adequate queue space for two vehicles (at least 12m) at the entry prior to the first potential parking
manoeuvre.
The existing properties combined provide two driveway crossings. The proposal provides two driveway
crossings, one for entry and one for exit. The Entry is upstream of the zebra pedestrian crossing, and the exit
is downstream of the crossing. The locations of the proposed driveways are approximately the same as the
existing locations.


The circulation of the car park is acceptable and meets AS2890. Of note is the end aisle circulation is only
3.6m wide and would only suit one way traffic. One Way signs and marking shall be installed to ensure only
one way flow through this section.
