D - Vehicular Site Access Advice

Response:

TTM’s initial letter, dated 12th August 2020, prepared in response to Council’s information request (dated
19th May 2020) addressed selected items from the Driveways and Car Parking Code, as specifically identified
by Council. Please refer to Attachment C which includes responses to all specific outcomes included in the
code.

As detailed, the proposed development complies with the majority of the acceptable solutions identified in
the code. Where compliance is not achieved with an acceptable solution the proposal satisfies the applicable
performance outcome.

In relation to on-street car parking availability please refer to TTM drawing 20BRT0181-02A (Attachment B)
which presents the on-street car parking supply associated with two options; a single site access crossover
and two site access crossovers.

As demonstrated, a total of three on-street parking spaces are available under both options. It is noted that
under the ‘two accesses’ option the separation distances between existing and potential new crossovers is
less than the ‘one access’ option. However, as demonstrated in TTM drawing 20BRT0181-01B (Attachment
B) the ‘two accesses’ arrangement practically provides for design vehicles (B85 vehicle in accordance with
AS/NZS 2890.1:2004) to park and manoeuvre to and from each access crossover.

It is therefore concluded that provision of two separate vehicular site accesses, as detailed on the proposed
development plans, does not result in a net decrease in on-street car parking capacity. Additionally, the
proposed on-site design provides for a total of six (6) parking spaces including two resident and one visitor
space for each dwelling which is considered to be a superior supply than would be achieved by a single
vehicular site access arrangement.

It is also concluded that the proposed traffic and parking design of the development satisfies Council’s
planning scheme requirements and is therefore considered to be acceptable.

I trust the information provided herein is adequate for your purposes. Should you require any further
