TUGUN BYPASS Environmental Impact Statement TUGUN BYPASS Environmental Impact Statement Part E – Impacts of the proposed Tugun Bypass on the socioeconomic environment TUGUN BYPASS Environmental Impact Statement 12. Land use, planning and transport 12.1 Introduction The relationship between available transport systems and the development of land has been recognised for many years. The introduction of new transport infrastructure can stimulate the development of adjacent rural land for more intensive uses and, at the same time, the development of land will generate a demand for movement. Where land has been reserved for a future road for many years, adjacent uses will often anticipate its implementation. The process of traffic modelling, which seeks to identify the anticipated effects of building a major new link in the road network, depends on an understanding that the movement generated by future land uses requires accommodation by the available infrastructure. This process is tempered by the application of planning and transport policies. The following two chapters address these issues. Chapter 12 deals with land use issues and transport in general following the opening of the bypass. Chapter 13 focuses on potential impacts on the community, including effects resulting from the re-distribution of traffic to the proposed bypass and those occurring as a direct consequence of the introduction of major infrastructure to the area. Other impacts, such as noise, air quality and visual effects, collectively influence the amenity of residents and business occupants who would be affected by the new road. The impacts of the individual environmental effects are described in detail in Chapters 9, 14 and 16, and in Technical Papers 10, 11 and 13. 12.2 Existing land uses 12.2.1 Overview The area from the existing Stewart Road interchange to Boyd Street consists of land used for residential, industrial and community purposes; there is also some bushland. The land surrounding the proposed Tweed Heads Bypass interchange to the south of the alignment consists mainly of land used for residential, rural and industrial purposes. The land in between is used by Gold Coast Airport, a large proportion of which is undeveloped. This has been a result of operational needs of the airport such as the protection of the obstacle limitation surface and the incompatibility of residential development with airport operations. Existing land uses in the area adjacent to the proposed bypass are shown in Figure 12.1. 12.2.2 Vacant/under construction Land to the north and west of Boyd Street mainly consists of bushland, a large proportion of which has been approved for future urban development and residential subdivision.

The John Flynn Hospital and Medical Centre, the major medical facility in the southern Gold Coast, is located to the north of Boyd Street. The bypass would pass directly to the west of the hospital. Tugun Landfill is also adjacent to Boyd Street. This is owned and operated by the Gold Coast City Council. Solid waste has been deposited at the site since 1974. Prior to that, the site had been used for the deposition of municipal waste for a period for about 30 years. A sewage treatment plant, now downgraded to a pumping station, adjoins the landfill to the east. Lakeside Christian College is located to the east of the proposed junction with the Tweed Heads Bypass. The school caters for children up to Year 7 and has approximately 200 students. The Tweed Heads West Sewage Treatment Works located to the south of the Tweed Heads Pony and Hack Club and west of the proposed bypass. The location of major community facilities in the area is shown in Figure 12.2. 12.2.4 Residential The main areas of residential land consist of low-density residential development at the northern end of the proposed alignment (near the Stewart Road interchange), multi-unit residential development at Tugun Heights, and low-to-medium-density residential development at the Pacific Beach Estate. Low-rise detached dwellings also exist near the proposed Tweed Heads Bypass interchange. The strip to the east of the Gold Coast Highway from Tugun to Coolangatta is predominantly residential, with a mix of low, medium and high density development. There is a strip of low density housing to the west of the Gold Coast Highway, south of Boyd Street. Access to this area is via a service road parallel to the highway. Two large subdivisions are to be developed in areas adjacent to the proposed bypass. These are the Cobaki Lakes development and the Pacific Beach Estate, located to the west and east of the proposed alignment respectively. The developments would accommodate over 5,000 new dwellings. 12.2.5 Recreation A number of sporting facilities and clubs are located south of Boyd Street, including the Betty Diamond Sporting Complex, which incorporates the Tugun Leagues Club, the Tugun Soccer Club, and a number of other sporting and public facilities.

It consists of mainly cleared areas, with several paddocks, stables and yards, and trail riding areas. The location of these recreation areas is shown in Figure 12.2. 12.2.6 Industry The Currumbin Waters Industrial Estate is located at the northern end of the proposed Tugun Bypass corridor. A small area of light industrial uses is located to the north of Boyd Street. This consists of a car park within a large shed for travellers using Gold Coast Airport, and small businesses in warehouse-type accommodation. A sand-blasting operation was located at the southern end of the proposed bypass, adjacent to the junction with Tweed Heads Bypass. This operation has now closed. The remainder of the property consist of semi-cleared land containing piles of disused scrap metal. 12.3 Implications for local planning strategies Both Gold Coast City Council and Tweed Shire Council have acknowledged the importance of improving transport infrastructure in response to the increasing demand brought about by population and tourism growth. Their planning strategies have also shown a commitment to the development of an alternative inland transportation corridor to resolve safety and efficiency problems of the existing highway from north of Tugun to the Tweed Heads Bypass. A large proportion of the alignment of the proposal between Boyd Street and Kennedy Drive is defined as an existing road reservation according to the local environmental plan and planning scheme for Tweed Shire and Gold Coast City respectively. Owing to the constraints identified during the impact assessment process, the alignment of the road has been amended for the EIS and, therefore, sections of the proposal are located outside the road reservation. This remaining land, with the exception of a number of private properties in the vicinity of the proposed junction with the Tweed Heads Bypass, is predominantly zoned for airport buffers and environmental protection purposes. Existing generalised zoning in the area adjacent to the proposed Tugun Bypass is shown in Figure 12.3.

  • Connecting SEQ 2031 an Integrated Regional Transport Plan for South East Queensland
    Connecting SEQ 2031 An Integrated Regional Transport Plan for South East Queensland Tomorrow’s Queensland: strong, green, smart, healthy and fair Queensland AUSTRALIA south-east Queensland 1 Foreword Vision for a sustainable transport system As south-east Queensland's population continues to grow, we need a transport system that will foster our economic prosperity, sustainability and quality of life into the future. It is clear that road traffic cannot continue to grow at current rates without significant environmental and economic impacts on our communities. Connecting SEQ 2031 – An Integrated Regional Transport Plan for South East Queensland is the Queensland Government's vision for meeting the transport challenge over the next 20 years. Its purpose is to provide a coherent guide to all levels of government in making transport policy and investment decisions. Land use planning and transport planning go hand in hand, so Connecting SEQ 2031 is designed to work in partnership with the South East Queensland Regional Plan 2009–2031 and the Queensland Government's new Queensland Infrastructure Plan. By planning for and managing growth within the existing urban footprint, we can create higher density communities and move people around more easily – whether by car, bus, train, ferry or by walking and cycling. To achieve this, our travel patterns need to fundamentally change by: • doubling the share of active transport (such as walking and cycling) from 10% to 20% of all trips • doubling the share of public transport from 7% to 14% of all trips • reducing the share of trips taken in private motor vehicles from 83% to 66%.
