Attachment 3—Further advice


General advice
1.  An existing TransLink bus stop, “Ferrells Rd near Overlander Ave” (TransLink Stop
    ID: 301955), is located on the Ferrells Road site frontage. There is no existing
    footpath along Ferrells Road and the submitted plans do not propose footpaths to
    the existing bus stop.

         The Department of transport and Main Roads recommends that council should
         require pedestrian connectivity between the development (namely the Tourist Park)
         and the existing bus stops located in Ferrells Road.
2.       The existing TransLink bus stop, “Ferrells Rd near Overlander Ave” (TransLink Stop
         ID: 301955), is likely to be impacted on by the development during construction. The
         bus stop must be able to function and pedestrian access to this facility must be
         maintained during the construction of the development.

         Accordingly, if any temporary bus stop and pedestrian access arrangements are
         required during the construction of the development, the applicant must reach
         agreement on suitable arrangements with TransLink (3338 4493).
3.       In accordance with the Department of transport and Main Roads Roadside
         Advertising Guide (RAG), the location of the proposed advertising device fronting the
         Bruce Highway is within the Device Restriction Area and will pose a potential
         distraction and risk to motorist safety.

     Any future application for Advertising devices facing the Bruce Highway in this
     location will not be supported pursuant to s43 of the Transport Infrastructure Act
     1994 (TIA).
Road access works approval:
4.   Under sections 62 and 33 of the Transport Infrastructure Act 1994, written approval
     is required from the Department of Transport and Main Roads to carry out road
     works that are road access works (including driveways) on a state-controlled road.
     Please contact the Department of Transport and Main Roads on 07 5451 7055 or
     [email protected] to make an application for road works approval.
     This approval must be obtained prior to commencing any works on the state-
     controlled road reserve.

         The approval process may require the approval of engineering designs of the
         proposed works, certified by a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland
         (RPEQ). The road access works approval process takes time – please contact
         Transport and Main Roads well in advance to ensure that gaining approval does not
         delay construction.

     Please note, it may be necessary to dedicate land as road in order to accommodate
     the road access works that comply with the Department’s conditions.
Road corridor permit
5.   An application for a Road Corridor Permit is required for any ancillary works and
