Specifically, this report aims to assess the impacts of the proposed development upon the adjacent road network, with a focus on access requirements to/from Wanneroo Road and the surrounding local road network. This report has been prepared in accordance with the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) Transport Impact Assessment Guidelines Volume 2 – Planning Schemes, Structure Plans & Activity Centre Plans (2016). The checklist form, included in these guidelines is enclosed in Appendix A. CW1011200 | 9 July 2019 | 1 Lot 1665, Wanneroo Road, Sinagra Local Structure Plan - Transport Impact Assessment 2 Existing Situation 2.1 Existing Site Context and Land Use The proposed development site (the Site) is located on the eastern side of Wanneroo Road, north of Wanneroo Town Centre. The Site currently operates as an Ingham chicken farm, with access via a full movement priority-controlled intersection on Wanneroo Road. The Site is bounded by Wanneroo Road to the west, vacant bushland to the south, vacant lots and residential dwellings to the north and a nursery to the east. The location of the Site is illustrated in Figure 2-1. Site Location Site Dundebar Road Source: Nearmap (2019) As shown in Figure 2-2 below, the Site sits within the East Wanneroo Cell 2 Structure Plan area, on the northern boundary of Wanneroo Town Centre.

Road classifications are defined in the Main Roads Functional Hierarchy as follows: Primary Distributors (light blue): Form the regional and inter-regional grid of MRWA traffic routes and carry large volumes of fast-moving traffic. Some are strategic freight routes, and all are National or State roads. They are managed by Main Roads. Regional Distributors (red): Roads that are not Primary Distributors, but which link significant destinations and are designed for efficient movement of people and goods within and beyond regional areas. They are managed by Local Government. District Distributor A (green): These carry traffic between industrial, commercial, and residential areas and connect to Primary Distributors. These are likely to be truck routes and provide only limited access to adjoining property. They are managed by Local Government. District Distributor B (dark blue): Perform a similar function to “District Distributor A” but with reduced capacity due to flow restrictions from access to and roadside parking alongside adjoining property. These are often older roads with traffic demand in excess of that originally intended. District Distributor A and B roads run between land-use cells and not through them, forming a grid that would ideally be around 1.5 kilometres apart. They are managed by Local Government. Local Distributors (orange): Carry traffic within a cell and link District Distributors at the boundary to access roads. The route of the Local Distributor discourages through traffic so that the cell formed by the grid of District Distributors only carries traffic belonging to or serving the area. These roads should accommodate buses but discourage trucks. They are managed by Local Government. Access Roads (grey): Provide access to abutting properties with amenity, safety and aesthetic aspects having priority over the vehicle movement function. These roads are bicycle and pedestrian friendly. They are managed by Local Government.

This intersection is a 3-way signal-controlled intersection. At the intersection, the northern approach provides an 80m left turn pocket (give way controlled) and the southern approach provides a 135m right turn pocket (signal controlled). Figure 2-4 shows the existing geometry of the intersection.
