1.2 Land Description 1.2.1 Location

The structure plan area is located approximately 4 kilometres south east of the Bunbury Central Business District within the Locality of Glen Iris. The structure plan area is generally bounded by Vittoria Road to the east, Kaeshagan Street to the south, the Preston River to the west and existing landholdings to the north (refer to Figure 5).

1.2.2 Area & Land Use

The structure plan area incorporates 10 lots as detailed in Table 5 and Figure 6. The structure plan area comprises a total of 66.911 hectares and has historically supported rural land use activities (primarily grazing and agistment). Some low intensity grazing and agistment still occurs on the subject land.

Much of the subject land, due to its previous rural use, is generally cleared with some intermittent trees. Subject Land

Three dwellings together with associated outbuildings and sheds are located within the structure plan area on the western portion of the property. The balance of the land remains vacant. (refer to Figure 7 – Aerial Photograph). Source: Google Maps (www.maps.google.com.au)

The policy has many aspects but the Greater Bunbury sub-region. fundamentally the principle idea is to promote walkable mixed-use neighbourhoods. The Greater Bunbury Strategy incorporates the Greater Bunbury Structure Plan which is based on ensuring a 25 year supply of The South Moorlands Structure Plan has been formulated to undeveloped land. The main purpose of the Structure Plan is to comply with the objectives and intentions of Liveable identify land ahead of the rezoning process and to stage the Neighbourhoods. rezoning of that land in response to future growth trends.

The Strategy advocates that land that is already zoned, such as the South Moorlands Local Structure Plan area, should be encouraged and prioritised for development given the considerable supply of land that has already been deemed suitable, or potentially suitable, for new urban development and that has already been zoned accordingly under the Greater Bunbury Region Scheme.

Figure 15 2.6 Context & Other Land Use Constraints Site Context, Opportunities & Constraints Map 2.6.1 Regional & Local Context

The structure plan area is located within the locality of Glen Iris and is approximately 4.5km (by road) south of the Bunbury City centre.

A range of community facilities and employment opportunities are within close proximity to the site including: - Bunbury CBD; - Bunbury Forum Shopping Centre; and - A number of local primary schools.

The Structure Plan site is situated on Vittoria Road, providing excellent connectivity to the city centre and outer regional areas via the Forrest and South Western Highways which are both Primary Regional Roads.

Within the structure plan area and with the exception of Moorlands Avenue, there are currently no existing internal roads, pedestrian or cycle networks.

There are no existing public transport facilities within the structure plan area, although the transport provider, Bunbury City transit currently operates in the vicinity of the site.

Figure 15 provides a context and site analysis identifying the key opportunities and constraints related to the structure plan area. The figure identifies the regional open space that encompasses the Preston River, an analysis of existing neighbourhood form in surrounding areas, the cultural heritage site and surrounding road and community infrastructure. The structure plan area is generally devoid of topographic features. View corridors are focussed onto the central ROS areas.

In addition, this alternative use would result in the precinct Figure 17 interfacing with Vittoria Road as opposed to residential Road Network Layout and Identification development that would, in all likelihood, be forced to back on to Vittoria Road in order to achieve required levels of amenity for residents.

Option B achieves the following ‘Principal Aims’ of the WAPC’s Liveable Neighbourhoods: • To provide for an urban structure of walkable neighbourhoods clustering to form towns of compatible mixed uses in order to reduce car dependence for access to employment, retail and community facilities. • To ensure that walkable neighbourhoods and access to services and facilities are designed for all users, including those with disabilities. • To ensure active street-land use interfaces, with building frontages to streets to improve personal safety through increased surveillance and activity. • To facilitate new development which supports the efficiency of public transport systems where available, and provides safe, direct access to the system for residents. • To facilitate mixed-use urban development which provides for a wide range of living, employment and leisure activities, capable of adapting over time as the community changes and which reflects appropriate community standards of health, safety and amenity.

Further investigations into this option will be undertaken prior to detailed subdivision and/ or development including this area being subject to a Local Development Plan.

3.5 Movement Networks

The internal road layout has been designed to achieve a high level of permeability as well as to provide safe and efficient access to facilities for vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists.

The layout is well integrated with the surrounding road network and developed areas with two strong east-west links through the development connecting with Vittoria Road. An opportunity is also provided for a road connection to the north.

A Transport Impact Assessment Report has been prepared by Donald Veal Consultants and is included as Appendix 6. The report:

• examines the existing road network and volumes; • describes and justifies road network and hierarchy; • assesses the proposed road network capacity for peak demand; • describes existing roads and intersections together with upgrading requirements; • provides estimates of traffic volumes; • provides indicative road cross sections for each road type, showing carriageway and verge widths and accommodation of service infrastructure and street trees;
