I refer to the above application and the information request issued by your Council and dated 28th

the site by an MRV (as defined by Australian Standard AS2890.2-2002) at the Hofmann Drive access
potentially straddling the through lane and the left turn lane in Hofmann Drive, but staying on the
correct side of the internal roadway when entering that busy aisle within the site (predicted to carry
peak hour traffic flows in the order of 450vph in peak periods). Provide a swept path plan using a HRV
for entry from Hofmann Drive with the vehicle using the whole of the existing northbound carriageway
in Hofmann Drive and the whole of the internal access roadway.

Item 2: Prepare a functional layout plan of the Hofmann Drive access demonstrating details of the
new left turn lane in Hofmann Drive, land dedication to accommodate that left turn lane and Council’s
standard verge/footpath. The left turn driveway cross-over configuration must be consistent with
IPWEA standard drawing RS-051.
