The entrance before the gates on the
private road to be designed to provide
a turning circle with a radius of 8

 

to Road R8 (Noosa Springs Drive) and provides access
to 37 dwelling houses. It is a type section “D” road in
the Master Street Plan and has a section type in
Appendix D that complies with the existing wording of
Condition 23.

However, the access driveway within the residential
precinct itself is a type section ‘E’ pursuant to the
Master Street Plan, which has been applied to the
driveways of all other residential stages of Noosa
Springs and works well. The design of the road differs
in the following respects to the existing wording of
Condition 23:

¢ =Aminimum width of 3.5 metres
© Does not have kerb and channel
* Is of a clay paver construction

¢ ~=No foot path

The design of the access driveways is very important
to the distinctive character of the residential areas of
Noosa Springs. Without addressing all issues of the
Master Street Plan principles, we wish to point out:

e = It has mixed use activities (vehicles, pedestrians,
cyclists, golf carts etc}

«The narrower access driveway widths have a
traffic calming purpose

e Winding the driveway gives greater prominence
to the landscaped verges

© Broadening the driveway to create visitor parking
creates pockets of parking shielded by vegetation

e Each allotment has a requirement to set back
front fences 2 metres from the property boundary
and plant this strip with vegetation consistent
with the common property landscaping.
