The access point must be located and controlled such that the potential conflict points are addressed. Minimum site distances are to be demonstrated and certified by an RPEQ with appropriate relevant experience in traffic engineering. Compliance with this condition may require changes to the layout if the access location requires greater site distance.

d. The proposed site access onto the service road appears to conflict with the current traffic island in the service road. The revised study is to consider the ingress and egress movements and confirm how any conflicts are proposed to be managed. Swept path diagrams are to be provided for service vehicles.

The study must be endorsed by the Chief Executive Officer prior to the issue of a Development Permit for Operational Works and prior to any approvals being issued for Building Works.
