VC132 Plans prepared in accordance with Clause 52.06-8 must meet the design standards of Clause
52.06-9, unless the responsible authority agrees otherwise.
Design standards 1, 3, 6 and 7 do not apply to an application to construct one dwelling on a lot.

Design standard 1 – Accessways


Accessways must:
Be at least 3 metres wide.
Have an internal radius of at least 4 metres at changes of direction or intersection or be at least
4.2 metres wide.
Allow vehicles parked in the last space of a dead-end accessway in public car parks to exit in
a forward direction with one manoeuvre.
Provide at least 2.1 metres headroom beneath overhead obstructions, calculated for a vehicle
with a wheel base of 2.8 metres.
If the accessway serves four or more car spaces or connects to a road in a Road Zone, the
accessway must be designed so that cars can exit the site in a forward direction.
Provide a passing area at the entrance at least 6.1 metres wide and 7 metres long if the accessway
serves ten or more car parking spaces and is either more than 50 metres long or connects to a
road in a Road Zone.
Have a corner splay or area at least 50 per cent clear of visual obstructions extending at least
2 metres along the frontage road from the edge of an exit lane and 2.5 metres along the exit
lane from the frontage, to provide a clear view of pedestrians on the footpath of the frontage
road. The area clear of visual obstructions may include an adjacent entry or exit lane where
more than one lane is provided, or adjacent landscaped areas, provided the landscaping in those
areas is less than 900mm in height.
If an accessway to four or more car parking spaces is from land in a Road Zone, the access to the
car spaces must be at least 6 metres from the road carriageway.
If entry to the car space is from a road, the width of the accessway may include the road.
