Attachment A - TTM Traffic report · MCU15/0016

3. Truck Movements (Item 3)

Information Request Item 3:

Provide further information as to the type of trucks using the loading bay, frequency of use, and
justification for the selected location.

TTM response:

TTM have been advised that the majority of delivery vehicles are vans. Weekly waste collection by a front
loading refuse collection vehicle (RCV) also occurs. Lastly, three vehicles per week are towed into the site.
Following a review of these vehicles, it is anticipated that the RCV is the largest vehicle to access the site
and will be used as the design vehicle. TTM have been advised that that all trucks and staff will enter Lot 2
and 3 on SP222986, turn within the site and exit from these adjacent lots also. The 'service driveway' will
receive limited usage and primarily be used for temporary vehicle storage. Furthermore the 'service
driveway' will only be used for northbound vehicles through the site.

The truck loading area is separated from customer traffic and is located 'back of house'. The TTM drawing
attached to this letter (15SCT0033-01 Revision A) shows the swept path for the RCV. Service vehicle
movements can be managed by staff. This drawing shows that RCV movements will encroach on bin
storage and landscaping areas. As such it is recommended that these areas be amended accordingly.

Should the impacted bin storage and landscaping be revised, the proposed service vehicle arrangements
will be considered suitable.

4. Access Movements (Item 4)

Information Request Item 4:

Provide information how the above traffic conflict will be addressed. If it is proposed that the access to the
site will be left-in and left-out only, advise what measures will be implemented to enforce this restriction.

TTM response:

The access has been designed for left in/left out movements only. The applicant will provide a 'no right
turn' sign for movements from the north to restrict vehicles turning right into the site. A 'left turn only' is
currently provided at the site exit and this should remain. An island is provided within the existing
driveway and designed in accordance with Council and IPWEAQ standards for left in/left out movements
only.

Should the recommendations for signage and the access island be provided, the access arrangements will
be considered suitable.
