Traffic Impact Assessment

1.0 INTRODUCTION


1.1     Background
        In April 2021, Pekol Traffic and Transport (PTT) was commissioned by Seventh-Day Adventist
        Church to undertake a traffic impact assessment, to assist in the delivery of a proposed increase to
        the student enrolment capacity at Noosa Christian College. The school is located at 20 Cooroy
        Belli Creek Road, Cooroy, as indicated in Figure 1.1.

1.2     Aim
        A development approval for a minor change was granted over the subject site on 17 August 2020
        (application number: MCU18/0189.01). Condition 8 of this approval states:

           “The maximum number of students permitted on site shall not exceed 299 students.”

        It is understood that this condition relates to Condition 12 of the original negotiated decision notice
        for the subject site (dated 27 February 2003, amended 13 June 2003), which stated:

          “A further traffic engineering assessment shall be carried out when students numbers reach 300
          students, this should pay particular attention to the traffic conditions in Overlander Drive and the
          amenity issues arising out of an increase in traffic and make recommendations on the treatment.
          The applicant shall carry out any works recommended within this study at no cost to Council.”
