Att 3_CMP - Final
A rumble pad should be constructed at least 2 metres wide and consist of 40 mm
crushed rock places 150 mm to 200 mm thick over geotextile filter cloth for a minimum
distance of 10 metres. Where necessary 20 mm aggregate should be placed to allow
pedestrian traffic safe access. Pre-fabricated rumble grids should be located over
geotextile cloth.
5.2 Roadside gully inlet sediment barriers
For safety reasons and sediment efficiency, sediment barriers generally should not be
located outside site boundaries without Council approval. This especially applies to
sediment barriers placed on roadways.
Sediment barriers placed in front of roadside stormwater inlets are rarely as effective as
onsite controlled and at best result in sediment being washed down the road and into
the nearest open gully inlet.
They should be only used as last resort and if installed, they should not fully block the
inlet structure (Figure 4 & Figure 5). Figure 6 shows an alternative arrangement.
