Site Access and Egress
The intent of design requirements for roads is to provide safe egress for residents and access for attending firefighting vehicles.
A road system that is compliant with guideline measures provides fire services with easier access to buildings, a safe retreat for
firefighters and residents, and can provide a fire control line where hazard reduction and back burning can take place. In
determining safe access to a site, consideration is given to the fire brigade vehicles which are required to access public and
private roads. Given the size of these vehicles and the poor visibility in which they often operate, roads need to be designed to
specific requirements, including road width, grade, cross-fall, weight capacity, passing bays and turnaround areas, all of which
may vary depending on whether it is a perimeter, access, cul-de-sac or battle-axe road type. Suitable safe access and egress for
residents and emergency services will be provided via Hoffman Drive.
Fencing
Fencing materials have the capacity to contribute to fire spread and intensity. It is recommended that non-combustible fencing
materials should be used if required.
Water Supply
Providing a sufficient water supply provides firefighters and residents with the appropriate levels of water to undertake
building defense. There are two options in which a house site can be supplied with a sufficient water supply; from either
reticulated water accessible via a hydrant, or a dedicated static water supply. Reticulated water will be supplied to the
development meeting the required statutory standards. Reticulated water will be provided to site to meet statutory
requirements.
