Information Required
4      Please provide engineering details to improve the safety of the access (any works necessary to improve
       visibility to the south and north by clearing, removal of existing fencing, providing additional features, etc,
       together with any necessary formation and line marking improvements).

Response
Safety of the access will be improved by adopting the following measures:
 Vegetation clearing and embankment works within the nominated sight lines (north & south) based on sight
    distance specified for domestic driveway access in AS/NZS 2890.1:2004 Figure 3.2 – refer attached Drawing
    M2683E DR01 for details;
 Additional works to formalise driveway and improve safety – refer Drawing M2683E DR01 for details;
 Provide approach signage such as “Watch For Entering Traffic” on northern approach.

We note the site already has two dwellings generating regular movements and a convex mirror located within
David Low Way to enhance safety during egress movements from the site. The existing road pavement formation
and line marking within David Low Way is deemed suitable for intended use and no changes are proposed.


Issue
The existing Council footpath along the David Low Way frontage appears to be constructed within the property at
the southern end of the site. Council requires that the footpath be wholly located within road reserve.

Information Required
5      Please indicate on the plans the location of the footpath and the extent of any proposed dedication.

Response
Our client agrees to dedicate the area of footpath encroachment along the frontage of the site to ensure the
footpath is fully located within the road reserve. We request that Council condition this requirement as part of
plan sealing, with a survey of the footpath to be carried out in conjunction with the identification survey for the
proposed lots.

This correspondence and attachments represent a response to all the information requested, in accordance with
s278 of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009. We trust the above and enclosed information satisfactorily addresses
Council’s Information Request requirements. Should you require any further information in relation to the above
matters, please contact me via phone or email [email protected] to discuss.

Yours faithfully,
