5.     TRAFFIC IMPACT

The assessment of the impact of the proposed development on the street network has
been undertaken. Traffic volumes have been projected to 10 years past the completion
of development to 2027, assuming the development is operational by 2017 and
generating traffic. The impact has been analysed according to the procedures set out
in Austroads – Guide to Traffic Management and Road Design.


5.1    Forecast Traffic Flows (without development)

The traffic volumes for 2027 have been forecast from the 2015 traffic count data.
Whilst there is limited potential for significant future growth in this area in Noosaville
a 0.5% compounded growth rate has been applied to the through traffic flows on
Goodchap Street.


5.2    Intersection Analysis (without development) 2027

The roundabout of Goodchap Street and Val Crescent has been analysed for the
planning design horizon of 2027 with a 0.5% growth on Goodchap Street. Results of
the intersection performance are shown below.
