In order to establish the traffic distribution for the proposed development, it was
assumed that 80% of the development trips would generate along Loop Road.
The Loop Road is accessed from Eenie Creek Road via a short ‘Connector Road’,
as shown in Figure 2.1. The intersections of Eenie Creek Road / the Connector
Road, and the Loop Road / the Connector Road are both roundabouts.

15% of the development would travel along Rene Street to the west and would get
onto Eumundi Street at Eumundi Street / Rene Street Roundabout.

Traffic volumes for all the intersections of ‘Shire Business Centre’ have been
adopted from the Burchill VDM Report 4622-2 "Response to Information Request
Noosa Corporate Offices — Lot 2, Eenie Creek Road, Noosaville, Queensland
(September 2007)”. The traffic volumes adopted in that report for the proposed
Business Park have been replaced by the trips calculated in Table 3.3 of this
report and the relevant changes have been made on all the intersections.

As the ‘Shire Business Centre’ and proposed Business Park generate more trips
during the evening peak period, the weekday evening peak has been the focus for
the subsequent assessment. The traffic demands during the evening peak at
intersections are illustrated in Figure 3.1.
