The key outcome from the assessment is that all movements and legs are forecast to Operate at a
satisfactory Level of Service (LOS) of “C”. The worst 95m percentile queue length was 58m occurring on the
through and right turn movement from the south approach on Elm Street. All of the traffic operations output
parameters are well within the bounds of what are considered to be satisfactory operational conditions.

It is considered that the proposed road network and road elements provide adequate access for refuse
collection vehicles.

On-site resident and visitor car parking is accommodated by the proposed design. An allowance of 1 resident
vehicle is to be garaged within each allotment. The site also provides 41 visitor car parking spaces scattered
across the retirement community (ILUs) development, which is equivalent to 1 visitor space per 4 ILU
allotments as per previous development conditions for the site. The visitor car parking spaces are
conveniently located within easy walking distance to all units.

The aged care facility has a designated car park consisting of visitor and staff parking. Provision has been
made for 24 visitor parks (at a rate of 1 visitor space per 5 aged care units) with the balance of car parks
provided for employee parking. The provision and location of the car parking spaces are considered to
provide good amenity at the site. The number of car parks for the Aged Care Facility is considered to be
appropriate given the nature of the development.

Based on the assessment of the network it is concluded that the majority of the road links and intersection
arrangements as proposed will be able to accommodate the anticipated traffic volumes to at least the design
year of 2028. The forecast demand estimates are based on the ultimate development scenario as outlined
above.
