State-controlled road

It is requested that the applicant provide further information on Performance Outcomes (PO)15-
22 of State code 6: Protection of State transport networks (State code 6) of the SDAP.

Provide revised proposal plans and a revised Traffic Engineering Assessment detailing the
following:
(i) Private buses/coaches/mini-buses and shuttles:
     • A dedicated bus setdown facility with adequate capacity (number of parking bays) to
        cater for the demand generated by the development for private/chartered coaches, buses,
        mini-buses, shuttles and the resort's own private shuttle services, including potential
        events held by the resort complex
     • Bus lay-by parking commensurate with demand, namely, bus layover for resort owned
        buses any events held at the resort complex
     • A bus setdown facility and bus lay-by parking designed for the maximum design vehicle
        (single unit rigid bus of 14.5m in length), with the bus setdown facility parallel to the kerb
        and at the entry to the development. Guidance on suitable dimensions can be obtained
        from Chapter 5 – Bus Stop Infrastructure of the Public Transport Infrastructure Manual
        2015. Bus parking should comply with the Disability Standards for Accessible Public
        Transport 2002 made under subsection 31(1) of the Disability Discrimination Act 1992
     • A Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ) certified swept path analysis
        demonstrating:
            o that the maximum design vehicle can manoeuvre into and out of the bus setdown
                facility
            o that buses parked in the bus setdown facility have independent movements
            o that buses can circulate past buses parked in the bus setdown facility
            o that buses can manoeuvre into and out of the bus lay-by parking without causing
                conflict
     • A bus circulation allows an efficient and direct route between the entry and exit of the
        development and should avoid carparking areas and aisles and circuitous routes. All bus
        parking zones are separate from passenger loading zones for taxis, rideshare, private
        vehicles and service vehicle loading zones to avoid vehicle conflict and maximise safety
        and efficiency and bus parking capacity
     • A waiting area of adequate dimensions for the anticipated dwell time of passengers at
        the bus setdown facility. Include shelter and seats as well as hardstand and access for
        waiting, boarding and alighting passengers.

(ii) Taxis and rideshare:
     • A porte cochere that has a dedicated passenger loading zone with adequate capacity
        (number of car parking bays) to accommodate the demand generated by the
        development for taxis and rideshare and private vehicles
     • A porte cochere that can accommodate the parking of a taxi suitable for use by people
        with a disability in accordance with the disability standards set out in PO22 of State Code

                                                                                          2|Page
