Attachment 1—Further advice


General advice - Lighting interference with the railway
1.      The development may increase the risk of outdoor lighting for the facility being confused with
        signal lights used for railway operations and may interfere with the vision of train drivers.
        Further the department is concerned with projectiles due to the nature of the proposed use.

        Therefore, security lighting should be hooded and appropriately designed and located to:
                 Prevent the light source (light bulb) from shining into the eyes of train drivers and
                  obscuring their sight; and
                 Prevent obstruction of or interference with the sighting of railway signals.

        The proposed fencing and netting as outlined in the supporting application material must be
        constructed and maintained at all times to protect rail infrastructure from projectiles as a
        result of the nature and operation of the facility.

        Please contact Queensland Rail on telephone number (07) 3072 1068 or at
        [email protected] for further information or guidance in relation to this matter.
