Dear Sir,

RE:       Response to Council’s Email of 28th June 2013
          MCU12/0184 – Animal Husbandry Type 2
          Lot 21 SP226606 at 136 Top Forestry Road, Ridgewood Qld

I refer to your recent correspondence requesting further traffic engineering advice for
a proposed development in Ridgewood, Cooroy. The information requested by the
Sunshine Coast Regional Council (SCRC) by email on 28th June 2013 has been
reviewed.

Information requested by Council
    Revise the traffic report to include the traffic movements (type and number)
      associated with the existing cropping use and the traffic movements (type and
      number) associated with the proposed cropping/poultry use, into a simple
      tabulated form which shows daily, weekly and yearly movements. It is
      expected that the cropping use will have seasonal variations whilst the poultry
      use will be more constant.
    Include comments from the traffic engineer regarding any necessary and
      achievable improvements to Top Forestry Road (Note: In some locations, the
      natural landform of Top Forestry Road restricts what is achievable).

Response
The traffic movements (or trip generation) for the existing and proposed uses is
provided in Section 4.0 of the Traffic Engineering Report in the following Tables;
    Table 2 – Trips generated from Avocado and Mango Farm
    Table 3 – Trips generated from New Avocado Farm
    Table 4 – Trips generated from Poultry Farm
    Table 5 – Trips generated from Poultry and Avocado Farm
