                                                         Proposed Mixed Use Development, 30-32 Doonella Road, Tewantin
                                                                             Parking & Traffic Impact Assessment Report



The Noosa Planning Scheme Policy 1 – Information council may request suggests that for developments
involving:
    •    More than 1 vehicular access point; or
    •    More than 20 car parking spaces; or
    •    An access point within 50m of an intersection; or
    •    Access onto a road other than a local street or neighbourhood collector street;
That a suitably qualified and experienced traffic engineer must undertake detailed Transport Impact
Assessment. Part b).ii. suggests:
         the transport impacts of developments with traffic movements on any section of the road
         hierarchy, other than local streets, that will mean;
             •     that the planned capacity (peak half hour) of the road or pathway or intersections
                   will be exceeded, or
             •     an increase in peak half hour or daily movements by more than 5% on the road
                   and pathways network or any one approach of an intersection,
The above suggests that the nominal increase in traffic on Doonella Street is 1% and the maximum increase
to any of the adjacent intersection approaches is no more than 2% which are well below the nominal 5%.
This suggests the development traffic has a negligible impact on the efficiency of the road network.
