Road corridor permit
6        Advice regarding Road Corridor Permit:
         An application for a Road Corridor Permit (RCP), is required for any ancillary works and
         encroachments on the state-controlled road under section 50(2) and Schedule 6 of the
         Transport Infrastructure Act 1994 and Part 5 and Schedule 1 of the Transport Infrastructure
         (State-Controlled Roads) Regulation 2006.

         Ancillary works and encroachments include but are not limited to awnings, advertising signs or
         other advertising devices, paths or bikeways, buildings/shelters, vegetation clearing,
         landscaping and planting.

         All proposed awnings within a state-controlled road require a Road Corridor Permit to be
         obtained from TMR. Other approvals may also be required from the local authority.
         All applications should contain the following information:
              • dimensioned plans, sections and elevations of proposal;
              • a full description of the proposed support structure, fabric, colour and fixing details; and
                  structural certification by a qualified structural engineer (RPEQ).

         To make an application for a Road Corridor Permit please refer to the following link for further
         information: https://www.tmr.qld.gov.au/Community-and-environment/Planning-and-
         development/Other-matters-requiring-approval/Road-Corridor-Permit.

         An application for a Road Corridor Permit, can be made to the Development Assessment
         Team via [email protected] of TMR (please quote TMR18-025959).

         Advice regarding proposed awnings:
             Multiple awnings in the road corridor appear to be supported by posts.
             If posts are used in the design, these must be cosmetic only (not structural).
             Awnings proposed must be able to withstand an errant vehicle driving into a post,
                 without collapse.
             Awnings must be cantilevered out from the building and must be removable.
             Awnings must be removed if needed by TMR, or the permit expires/is cancelled.
             A Road Corridor Permit from TMR must be held for the awnings at all times (the permit
                 must cover construction, operation and ultimate removal.) The permit is NOT
                 transferrable. Any change in ownership would require the new owner to apply for a
                 new permit in their own name.
             TMR has concerns with the proximity of the awnings to several power poles. The
                 applicant must check with Energex to ensure appropriate offsets are maintained.
             Power poles may NOT be relocated closer to the road carriageway to achieve this
                 offset.

         Advice regarding proposed plantings in the state-controlled road corridor
              Details of the proposed plantings in the road corridor are to be provided to TMR.
              Any plantings must comply with TMR's Landscaping manual, and not pose a hazard to
                 traffic (eg must not block sight lines, must not block visibility to pedestrians using
                 crossing location, must not block visibility to people using the bus stop, must be
                 frangible, must not obstruct operation of the bus stop, must not damage adjacent road
                 pavements, must be able to be maintained without traffic control being required.
