2025 Noosa Destination Management Plan. Parking. It is felt that the Noosa CBD destination is half-baked. The assertion of expenditure on CBD infrastructure as uneconomic is false. Both tourists and residents prefer to drive and park their vehicles near Hastings Street. 120 metres west of Hastings Street, one site has year-round potential to grow Hastings Street business. It seems compelling to build a multi-use four-level strata-titled car park on Noosa Spit at the Noosa Woods border. Circa five hectares would be required near the Main Beach groin between Claude Batten Drive and the beach. It is dependent upon a Noosa Woods to Noosa Parade connection, which is addressed later. Positive attributes. West of the Sofitel, potential for growth exists where little has eventuated in 50 years. In more than 50 A years. 600 car strata-titled parking garage at the Main Beach groin should attract public investment. The ground floor could accommodate fire, ambulance departments and also strata-titled whatever. The complex would be largely hidden from view by scrubs or Centres for operations would be a family manager's residence and control centre. Convenient 24-hour parking for Hastings Street business owners and staff would be surely appreciated. Featuring integrated 5G phone charge booking system, cloud-based with AI camera analytics. Passes should be issued in various classes for all Noosa Shire residents. Advanced phone booking should give great advantage secured bicycle and motorcycle parking. Headroom provided on ground floor for. High vehicles, kayaks and beach furniture. An electric vertical take-off and landing. EV tunnel, air taxi flight centre on the roof. Features down washer. A bike with it. Uber taxi and ambulance ramp to the roof for. Helicopter ambulance services. Various refuelling options. For hybrid, road and aerial taxis on the roof. Direct air taxi service to headquarters, Cooroy, Boreen Point, Sunshine Coast airport and other. Best low impact helicopter. And electric vertical take off and landing flight path. Destination in Noosa. Car rentals and service workshops to be provided. Covered parking provides protection from sun and hail which is likely to increase in frequency. Covered eliminated walk to connect garage to Hastings Street and ferry ticket office. Middle aged to elderly driver access to Main Beach shops and restaurants. Outgoing traffic to pass over Sofitel passage to Noosa Parade and Isabel. This issue is addressed later. Serpiock 20-person tracked amphibious tender for major economic gain to be provided and garaged. Sealegs wheeled amphibious tender for surfers and boards to be provided and garaged. Subsequently. All and subsequently all but local surfers should be banned from Laguna park, Laguna Bay, I should say national park, Laguna Bay track. Subsequently, parking in national park and nearby streets may be shared with the elderly and incapacitated. Surfboard and kayak sales, rental and repair shop to be provided. Short order barbeque, café, snack shop and gravel roof metal staff is required. Public shower and toilet facilities and gravel roof levels. Golf buggy parking and maintenance workshop may also be provided on the ground floor. Beach goers will the west, taking pressure off the beach near the surf club to the east. Hastings Street conversion to one way required and addressed in the following statement. The outcome will be parking in two enclaves, east and west of Suffolk hill and Hastings Street. Increased popularity of the currently quiet zone of Hastings Street west of the Suffolk hill. An optimised city west end will lead to scaling up of all business along Hastings Street. Potential for any increases in the quiet zone west of Suffolk hill should eventually. The attraction of shoppers to the west end could give property owners incentive to redevelop. Investigate the possibility of a multi-level cultural zone, the be one mantra of Noosa. Traffic entanglement will be resolved at Noosa Drive and Park Road junction in peacow. Place an electronic gate on Claude Batten Drive at the board marker and charge all but dove beach visitors to the spit. Give drivers advance surety of parking spots so they can plan their day with confidence. Cars from Noosa drives are unlikely to park in Noosa Parade west of Belli Street. Prioritisation will be given to the incapacitated, their special equipment and their beach assets. Of immediate proximity to weddings and major events in Noosa Woods is an obvious outcome. Increased fees will be collected by Noosa Council. While further increases are expected in real estate prices, basic cash flow for start and final should be about $30 million. Construction costs upwards of $30 million. Construction of a connection across soft-tail passage is essential. For the above-mentioned advantages to be realised. About the bridge. Poor traffic flow can cause driving dissatisfaction when arriving in Noosa CBD. Excuse me. A twin-lane road link connecting the western end of pace street to Noosa Parade would solve the problem. It should connect from the banks of Noosa. Woods passing across the softened el paso Cooroy to the western end of Garth Prowd Bridge. There, a twin-lane roundabout would allow both through-traffic freedom and left-lane entry from the west to Noosa Woods. The links across the passage could include a parallel pathway on the eastern side, a road branch heading northwest. Would connect directly to the drive's Main Beach floor level garage brought to your attention earlier. Positive attributes: the design should meet permissible grade and hydraulic modelling requirements. It is recommended that Hastings Street traffic be rerouted to one-way traffic east to west as. Mentioned in paragraph 31 of the foregoing address on the proposed Main Beach groin parking garage. The frequent traffic tangling at the Hastings Street police junction caused by exiting Hastings Street vehicular traffic. Would be resolved as mentioned in point 37 of the foregoing address on parking. Outgoing no longer be confronted by to be confronted exiting Hastings Street. Pedestrian traffic would then present only a minor problem for drivers, no worse than any city intersection. Exiting onto Noosa the. Parade would be inconvenient of course, while spots would have to be found somewhere in the direction of Noosaville, involving. A considerable walk back, better than nothing should street level parking on Noosa's bit be full. Of course, parking service could be available in point of wide ongoing. Ingoing footpath. On. Alternatively. Traffic could follow Claude Batten Drive, the continuation of Hastings Street, to the proposed 600 vehicle parking complex, addressed previously, or onto inadequate existing extensive street level parking throughout Noosa's bit. Left turn on the Garth Prowd Bridge could be camera regulated in peak traffic periods. Right and left turns on the Noosa Parade from Noosa Drive should it then also be camera regulated in peak traffic periods. A raised viewing platform at the crest of the main arch of the provider's culvert. Architecturally blending into the facade could provide a pearly river and sunset views. Passage for ferries would be assured at highest astronomical time. Post romanesque culvert design should significantly enhance the general appeal of the CBD. Facade tiling providing modern aesthetic elegance while attractive would also reduce structural corrosion. The arches would carry heavy vehicle loads. The cost of construction for the entire bridge, culvert that is, segment. Including an ancillary should be less than that would be expected of any alternate bridge design. Precast arches are estimated to cost only $660,000. The entire project and all associated road work from Noosa Parade but not including the multi-tiered garage would cost upwards of $30 million, according to Brady, Moran and silver. Construction of a culvert across sofford hill passage is essential for the previously presented project for a multi-level garage to be realised. 5-7 five to seven star hotel and entertainment centre. Newslessly many roads and parking infrastructure problems are tackled in the two other 2017 Draper project segments presented today, where some funding is to be sourced through strata title. Here, however, funds lost sourced through the sale of 63 hectares of re-zoned public property for the herein addressed third project sector, the loggerhead hotel, would also be needed to go towards the proposed Sofitel passage culvert addressed earlier, if funding is unavailable elsewhere. Project attributes. The parcel van is a one-time rock quarry I saw closed down in 1952 and is of great value. The quarry is, however, for some inconceivable reason, locked and gated within the national park. Development of the otherwise unused largely barren site would get rid of illegal camera. A magnificent 1,500 seat entertainment centre and a five to seven star hotel could fill the hole. If rezoning from the national park proves impossible, then a land swap could be pursued. A land passing yonamaya reserve. It is unmarked continuation of the national park. A line plot survey identifies the suggested parcel. It lies between the Cooroy and Peppers resort to the southwest. Yonamaya reserve, part of Noosa Shire, runs north and south along a line bordering Peppers resort and viridian resort, the latter otherwise known as Noosa residences. Suggested exterior hotel design resembles a loggerhead turtle common in our waters. The recommendation will be beyond the boundaries of traditional architecture. It should blend into the landscape giving a feel of luxury and science fiction, that is, Neo-cosmic. Ideally suited to extrapolation by highly intelligent, experienced, award-winning architects. Internally themed will Noosa River, the epic ways of intimidating culture in the aboriginal. Reclaimed or recycled. Timber, porcelain, tile, and figurative grass wall art recommended internally to accentuate appeal. The project will attract the skills of local wood sculptors. Hopefully the whole quarried through old blasted cabinry garden as construction space. The quarried space could also be developed for staff, housing, and provide parking. For coaches and private vehicles is situated at the northern extremity of the land pass. Proceeding parking space should be jointly utilised by visitors to Muguna walkout and the hotel. Top level should provide a 180 degree view of Sunshine Beach and Isabel. The hotel complex is proposed to be split in two categories with separate entrances. The entertainment centre can also cater for conventions and is one third tiered. The centre designed for the stage with 930 retractable seats would allow diverse utilisation. Australian star rating standards. Australian star rating standards hotel main section should be a 500 bed five star. A smaller seven star but an all suites complex shall offer service equal to galleria Vic Milan. The entire complex should equal the six star Australian sustainability rating of crown city. Lot A of light traffic meant to the hotel from Hastings Street is possible by a main rail rise of moorwell drive. The proposed link is referenced and clearly defined in the before mentioned line item number seven, line plot survey. The sale would easily fund all government works for the hotel. The spit garage. In other words, the three projects complete would cost the public nothing. The extra hotel rooms will reduce the demands on the STA mark. The seven star hotel segment should be in demand by the super yacht's high income mark. Our view land drive may be widened to accommodate over-throw parking from Peppers conferences. Increased popularity of Laguna lookout demands road widening and extra parking. All the preceding and necessary widening would benefit the loggerhead. An alternative road link was proposed in the 2017 Draper project in 2019, drawing a veil. An element an elevator of some kind should connection to a loggerhead lookout. The land parcel of ideally 63 hectares should. Raise 103 million. It could be shaved back to a minimum and still. Raise 75 million. International interest has already been expressed on the status of this project. That's it, ladies and gentlemen.
