7.   SITE ACCESS

The existing access to the subject site has been reviewed and additional improvements
should be considered to ensure the safety of road users. There is also a bus stop
adjacent to the property access on Top Forestry Road.

The driveway and access has been designed by Callaghan and Toth and shown in
Drawing 1209-09 in Appendix A. Vegetation clearing has been recommended and
sight visibility complies with Figure 3.2 of AS2890.1 for 50km/h. It is recommended
that consideration to drainage and retaining south of the access be provided at detailed
design stage (operational works).

In regard to the existing bus stop there is adequate formation width to cater for the bus
stop and meet the requirements for rural school bus stops. The property access is
clear of the bus stopping area and there is adequate length to maintain the existing
15m taper exiting the bus stop.

Consideration should be given to the following;
    Improving drainage and storm water runoff;
    Clearing overgrown vegetation to improve sight visibility;
    Signage to warn of truck movements and access identification.
