Attention: Mr Stephen Kidd
Dear Stephen,
RE: Information Request Response – MCU15/0014
Proposed Multiple Dwelling Unit Type 4 Conventional
Lot 2 RP51970 at 279 Gympie Terrace, Noosaville
I refer to your recent correspondence requesting traffic engineering advice for a
proposed development in Noosaville. The required information requested by the
Noosa Council has been reviewed.
The Information Request dated 17th March 2015 from the Council outlined the
following items;
Information Requested:
3. The proposed vehicle access to the site is via a single driveway located
adjacent to the western boundary. There are a number of issues with the
proposed access:
i. The proposed location conflicts with existing infrastructure (power
pole/street light, water meter, telecommunications) and on-street car
parking;

ii. The proposal includes a gate at the boundary which will result in vehicles
accessing the site blocking either the footpath or the traffic lanes or both;
iii. There is no passing opportunity between the front boundary and the car
parking located at the rear ground floor.
Provide revised plans that indicate:
(a) The access driveway located clear of any existing infrastructure or indicate
on the plan any relocated infrastructure,
(b) The reconfiguration of the existing on-street carparking that does not result
in the loss of spaces.
(c) The gate relocated within the site sufficient to allow a vehicle to wait within
the site (minimum 6m).
(d) A passing opportunity between the front boundary and the carparking area.
It is recommended that the passing opportunity (5.5m wide) be provided
near the front boundary.
Response
The proposed development has been reviewed and recommended changes have been
made. Please refer to the attached amended drawings.
3ia) The proposed driveway has been located to the site’s western boundary. This
location provides suitable separation between neighbouring driveways and
enhancement of the built form which results in a visually appealing amenity to
the street frontage. To accommodate the driveway at this location the existing
power pole will be relocated and an application has been lodged with Energex
for its removal. The water meter will also be relocated. The sluice valve (SV)
will not be impacted upon and will remain. The Telstra pit is unlikely to be
impacted and if required the cover can be replaced with a lid suitable to cater
for vehicles loads. Please refer to attached drawing SD.201 S3 for details.
3i (b) On-street parking is provided on Gympie Terrace in the vicinity of the subject
site. There are two spaces along the site frontage. The proposed access
driveway location on Gympie Terrace will result in the removal of one on-
street parking space, however the closure of the existing property access will
allow for another on-street parking space to be line marked in its place. The
proposed development therefore does not result in a loss of on-street vehicle
parking spaces. Car parking spaces will comply with AS2890.5 Figure 2.1 for
on-street parallel parking. Please refer to the attached concept plan provided
by RoadPro regarding on-street parking relocation arrangements.

3ii (c) The proposed development includes provision for a gate to restrict pedestrian
and vehicular access to the site. As per AS2890.1 Clause 3.4, adequate
queuing area must be provided between a vehicular control point and the
property boundary such that traffic entering and exiting the site does not
adversely affect traffic or pedestrian flows along the frontage. Due to the very
low traffic generation rate of the proposed development, vehicle queues of
more than one vehicle are unlikely to occur. A queuing area of length 6m is
therefore considered adequate to prevent obstruction to traffic or pedestrian
flows. The width provided is 4.0 which is adequate for a car to pass a moving
car as per Table 2.6F of Queensland Streets Guidelines. The access gate has
been relocated 6m back from the site boundary to allow for a vehicle to queue
on site. Please refer to drawing SD.201 for details.
3iii (d) The proposed development includes provision for 5 three-bedroom units and 1
two-bedroom unit. Section 3.3 of the RTA Guide to Traffic Generating
Developments provides trip generation rates for residential use. Traffic
generation rates for medium density residential units are shown in Table 1
below.

Medium density residential

Total 3 30
The development is therefore expected to generate 3 trips during the peak hour
and 30 trips daily.
Section 3 of Australian Standard AS2890.1 for off-street parking facilities
provides access width requirements for off-street parking facilities. Gympie
Terrace is classified as a district collector and therefore the proposed
development is classified as a Category 1 parking facility. As per Clause 3.2.2,
for low volume Category 1 access driveways where the frontage road is not an
arterial or sub-arterial, access widths can be less than 5.5m. Provision for
overtaking is generally not required for access driveways less than 30m in
length and with less than 30 vehicle movements per hour.
The proposed development will generate approximately 3 vehicle trips during
the peak hour. The driveway is less than 30m in length, allows good sight
visibility with passing opportunities provided at the entry and at the garages.
Provision for overtaking on the access driveway is therefore not required.
Therefore the proposed development complies with the requirements of
AS2890.1 for off-street parking facilities.
I trust this information assists with the Council’s concerns, however should further
information be required please do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours faithfully
Dianne Hayes
