Appendix H Traffic Impact Assessment · RAL25/0004

4.3 Swift Dr / Lake MacDonald Dr intersection

The small number of traffic movements introduced to the Swift Dr / Lake MacDonald Dr intersection
would be easily accommodated by the existing intersection in a safe and efficient manner.


4.4 Swift Dr / Cooroy Noosa Rd intersection

Importantly, as the Swift Dr / Cooroy Noosa Rd intersection, the proposed development would not add to
the critical right turn movement from Swift Dr toward Cooroy Noosa Road in the west, which is a
movement that is required to simultaneously give way to both directions of traffic moving along Cooroy
Noosa Road.

The proposed development will only add to the left turn movement from Swift Dr toward Cooroy Noosa
Rd in the east, and to the right turn movement into Swift Dr from Cooroy Noosa Rd in the east, and each
of those movements only need to give way to eastbound Cooroy Noosa Road traffic. Those minor
additional movements will be able to occur in a safe and efficient manner.


5.0 Conclusion

The proposed vehicular access arrangements for development of the site at 62 Lake MacDonald Dr as
shown on the Covey civil engineering plans at Appendix B, achieve a safe and satisfactory access
configuration, although it is recommended that the raised central median in Lake MacDonald Dr east of
the intersection as shown on those civil engineer plans be replaced with a painted median as shown on
the concept plan at Appendix A, so as to enable the small number of vehicles that currently turn right into
Wilgee Ct from the east, to be able to move into that painted median zone so that following westbound
vehicles can then move safely past the left hand side of those vehicles turning right into Wilgee Ct.

The additional traffic introduced to the wider road network by the proposed development can be
satisfactory accommodated in a safe and efficient manner.
