2.4 Traffic Volumes
In order to establish the existing traffic volumes in the vicinity of the site, onemilegrid commissioned
Trans Traffic Survey to undertake turning movement counts at the intersection of Powlett Street and
Rutledge Street, and at Powlett Street and Green Street. In addition, tube counts were undertaken
along Andersons Road and Nature’s Run.
The survey locations can be seen in Figure 8.
Figure 8 Survey Locations
The tube counts were conducted for one week starting on Thursday 10th October 2019, while the
turning movement counts were undertaken and recorded in 15-minute blocks on Thursday 10th
October 2019 between 6:00 AM and 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM.
The AM peak hour occurred between 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM, with the traffic volumes shown in
Figure 9.

With consideration for the cross-section characteristics, Andersons Road is considered a Connector
Street – Level 1 in which instance the road operates under its capacity of 3,000 vpd. Similarly,
Natures Run is considered an Access Place and as such is operating well under its capacity of 300
to 1,000 vpd.
2.5 Intersection Analysis
The operations of the surveyed intersections have been assessed using SIDRA Intersection, a traffic
modelling software package.
The SIDRA Intersection software package has been developed to provide information on the
capacity of an intersection with regard to a number of parameters. Those parameters considered
relevant are, Degree of Saturation (DoS), 95th Percentile Queue, and Average Delay as described
in Table 2.
Table 2 SIDRA Intersection Parameters
Parameter Description
Degree of
Saturation (DoS)
The DoS represents the ratio of the traffic volume making a particular
movement compared to the maximum capacity for that particular
movement. The value of the DoS has a corresponding rating depending on
the ratio as shown below.
Degree of Saturation Rating
Up to 0.60 Excellent
0.61 – 0.70 Very Good
0.71 – 0.80 Good
0.81 – 0.90 Fair
0.91 – 1.00 Poor
Above 1.00 Very Poor
It is noted that whilst the range of 0.91 – 1.00 is rated as ‘poor’, it is acceptable
for critical movements at an intersection to be operating within this range
during high peak periods, reflecting actual conditions in a significant number
of suburban signalised intersections.
Average Delay
(seconds)
Average delay is the time delay that can be expected for all vehicles
undertaking a particular movement in seconds.
95th Percentile
(95%ile) Queue
95%ile queue represents the maximum queue length in metres that can be
expected in 95% of observed queue lengths in the peak hour
The results of the analysis are provided in Table 3 and Table 4. It can be seen below that the
Rutledge Street / Powlett Street intersection operates under fair conditions, while the Green Street /
Powlett Street intersection operates under excellent conditions. As such, there is considered to be
spare capacity to accommodate additional traffic at each intersection.

2.8 Kilmore Structure Plan
2.8.1 General
onemilegrid were engaged in 2015 to assist Mesh Planning with the transport aspects of structure
planning for the Kilmore area.
The Kilmore Structure Plan (via the Kilmore 3764 Project) was endorsed by Council on 15th August
2016, and Council resolved to adopt Amendment C123 to the Mitchell Planning Scheme. An
extract of the Structure Plan in the vicinity of the site is shown below, showing the site to be
designated as a General Residential Area.
Figure 12 Kilmore Structure Plan Map
Furthermore, Figure 13 below shows the subject site has been identified as a strategic infill site.

2.8.3 Road Hierarchy
The Structure Plan also provides a range of information on the road hierarchy throughout the
precinct, including the desired road cross-sections for each road type. Figure 16 below shows the
typical cross-section for local roads.
Figure 16 Road Cross-Section – 16m Local Road
2.9 Kilmore Infrastructure Framework
A review of the Kilmore Infrastructure Framework has been undertaken. This report outlines the
coordinated development which will guide the population growth in Kilmore from approximately
8,000 people in 2016, to 25,000 in 2050. The subject site is located within Precinct 1 of Kilmore, and
as such is located within the already established part of the town which will be subject to infill
developments such as the proposed.
It is noted that none of the proposed infrastructure upgrades are located within the subject site.
Nevertheless, it is understood that the developer is required under the Development Contributions
Plan to provide financial contribution to the infrastructure upgrades which refer to the Precinct 1
Infill catchment.

3 DEVELOPMENT PLAN OVERLAY
As noted above, the site is subject to a Development Plan Overlay (DPO). The Overlay outlines
planning triggers and requirements to be addressed during preparation of a Development Plan.
The sections of the DPO relevant to traffic and transport include the requirement for:
Requirements for a development plan
A development plan must include the following requirements:
➢ The local street road layout; and
➢ A permeable movement network including connector and local road and path system
that facilitates access both within the precinct and to broader areas of Kilmore.
The Development Plan must be accompanied by, and demonstrate consistency with the
following:
A Traffic Impact Assessment Report
A Traffic Impact Assessment Report which reviews projected internal and as required
external traffic and movements network impacts, and to the satisfaction of the responsible
authority, and identifies costs for developer contributions where the impact is deemed
outside the developable area. The following must be considered within the assessment
report:
➢ The distribution, hierarchy and characteristics of vehicular and pedestrian circulation
networks;
➢ The ability to achieve safe access to the surrounding road network; and
➢ Consideration of any known relevant VicRoads infrastructure projects.

Page 23
4 DEVELOPMENT PLAN
4.1 General
The Development Plan contemplates redevelopment of the site for residential use. It is proposed to
provide approximately 62 residential lots, with Nature’s Run continuing north-south through the site,
generally consistent with the Kilmore Structure Plan.
The Development Plan is included below in Figure 17.
Figure 17 Development Plan
100 Nature's Run, Kilmore Transport Impact Assessment – Development Plan 190649TIA002A-F 16 September 2020
Page 24
4.2 Road Network and Vehicle Access
The subdivision will be serviced by a proposed internal road network which is consistent with that
identified in the Kilmore Structure Plan. Natures Run will adopt the 18m cross-section running north-
south through the subdivision, while 16m local roads will be adopted throughout the rest of the
subdivision.
Access will initially be provided from Natures Run at the south of the site, with future connections to
be provided to Clancy Road at the north, as well as a future road to the west.
Figure 18 Proposed Vehicle Access and Internal Road Network
The proposed road cross-sections are shown in ## and ## below.

Figure 20 Proposed Cross-Section – Local Access Place – 9.85m Road Reserve
4.3 Pedestrian and Cycling
With the provision of pedestrian paths on either side of road cross-sections, pedestrian connectivity
is provided for across the subdivision, as well as between the north and south, as well as to the west
to surrounding areas.
Cycling will be accommodated on-road. This is considered appropriate considering the low traffic
volumes generated within the subdivision.

5 TRAFFIC
5.1 Traffic Generation
Surveys undertaken by other traffic engineering firms at residential dwellings have shown that the
daily traffic generation rates vary depending on the size, location and type of the dwelling, the
parking provision and proximity to local facilities and public transport.
It is generally accepted that single dwellings on a lot in outer suburban areas may generate traffic
at up to 10 vehicle trips per day, whilst in areas with good public transport, and for higher density
dwellings, lower traffic generation rates are often recorded.
Considering the size of the dwellings proposed, the proximity of the site to public transport, and the
provision of parking proposed, it is anticipated that the proposed lots may generate traffic at the
upper end rate of 10 vehicle trips per day, equivalent to one trip per lot during the peak periods.
This equates to approximately 620 vehicle trips per day, including 62 trips during the peak periods.
As the subdivision can be accessed via two roads (until the land parcel to the west is developed),
the total traffic generation of the site is minimal and will be easily accommodated by the existing
road network in the vicinity.
Based on the above and considering the tidal nature of traffic, the anticipated peak hour traffic
generated by the development is shown in Table 5.
Table 5 Anticipated Traffic Generation
Period Inbound Outbound Total
AM Peak 12 50 62
PM Peak 37 25 62
5.2 Traffic Distribution
It is assumed that half of the development traffic is distributed to Natures Run north, and half to the
south. From Natures Run all traffic is assumed to be distributed to the west, to either the intersection
of Powlett Street/Rutledge Street or Powlett Street/Green Street.
Considering the location of the site in relation to the arterial road network, public transport facilities,
schools, recreation and retail and employment precincts, the directional distribution shown in Table
6 has been adopted.
Table 6 Adopted Directional Traffic Distribution
Origin/Destination Percentage
Powlett Street - North 40%
Powlett Street - South 40%
Green Street - West 10%
Rutledge Street - West 10%

5.3 Future Traffic Volumes
Based on the above, the future intersection volumes at the Powlett Street/Rutledge Street and
Powlett Street/Green Street intersection can be calculated by combining the existing volumes with
the traffic anticipated to be generated by the proposed development.
The resultant peak hour traffic volumes are shown in Figure 21 and Figure 22.

5.4 Traffic Impact
5.4.1 Midblock Capacity Assessment
Based on the midblock surveys conducted along each Andersons Road and Natures Run as well as
the expected traffic generated by the development, the expected future traffic volumes along
each road can be seen in Table 3 below. Based on the cross-sections, each road is expected to
continue operating within capacity.
Table 7 Weekday Average Traffic Volume and Speed Surveys
Locations Road Classification Traffic Capacity Future Traffic Volume
Andersons Road Connector Street – Level 1 3,000 vpd 2,470 vpd
Natures Run Access Place 300 to 1,000 vpd 380 vpd
5.4.2 Intersection Capacity Assessment
To assess the operation of the intersection following the proposed development, the future
expected traffic volumes have been input into SIDRA Intersection.
The results of the analysis are provided in Table 8 and Table 9.
It can be seen below that the Rutledge Street / Powlett Street intersection continues to operate
under fair conditions in the AM peak, and good conditions in the PM peak. Furthermore, the
proposed development can be seen to have had minor impacts on the average delay and queue
length, with a maximum change in delay of 0.9 seconds, and a maximum change in queue length
of 5.2 metres.

As noted above, the intersection of Green Street and Powlett Street is scheduled for upgrade to a
signalised intersection. It can be seen below that the Green Street / Powlett Street intersection
continues to operate under excellent conditions during both peak hours. Furthermore, the
proposed development can be seen to have had minor impacts on the average delay and queue
length, with a maximum change in delay of 1.6 seconds, and a maximum change in queue length
of 3.2 metres.
While this development itself does not trigger a requirement for the Green Street / Powlett Street
intersection to be upgraded, further development across the Kilmore area is likely to do so.

100 Nature's Run, Kilmore Transport Impact Assessment – Development Plan 190649TIA002A-F 16 September 2020
Page 31
The Kilmore Structure Plan contemplates significant development across Kilmore which seeks to
increase the population from 8,000 to 25,000 people by 2050. As a result of this development,
traffic volumes on all arterial and connector roads are expected to grow significantly. While the
preceding analysis does not indicate that the proposed development is likely to significantly
impact local traffic, it is understood that holistically this is expected to increase, and as a result
existing road infrastructure may need upgrading.
Noting this, it is understood that the developer may be required to provide a proportional financial
contribution to fund future infrastructure upgrades. Based on a high level assessment of the
proposal to increase the local population by 17,000 residents, and considering an average dwelling
occupancy of 2.5 persons, the proposed development contributes to approximately 1% of the new
housing.
6 DEVELOPMENT PLAN OVERLAY REQUIREMENTS
The Development Plan Overlay includes a number of requirements for the subdivision of the site
which have been addressed in this document, namely A Development Plan, and a Traffic Impact
Assessment Report.
7 CONCLUSIONS
It is proposed to develop the site for a residential subdivision, comprising 62 residential lots.
Considering the analysis presented above, it is concluded that:
➢ The proposed internal road network is designed appropriately to cater for vehicle access to the
lots and the level of traffic generated;
➢ The layout of the site caters for pedestrian and cyclist connections, in accordance with the
Planning Scheme;
➢ The internal streets provide parking across the site;
➢ The subdivision is projected to generate up to 620 daily vehicle movements and up to 62
vehicle movements during the peak hour periods;
➢ The intersection analysis identifies that the existing intersections of Rutledge Street / Powlett
Street and Green Street / Powlett Street have capacity to cater for the level of traffic
generated by the site;
➢ The midblock capacity checks identify that Natures Run and Andersons Road have capacity to
cater for the level of traffic generated by the site; and
➢ While Green Street / Powlett Street intersection is flagged for upgrade to a signalised
intersection, the traffic generated by the proposed development does not trigger this
requirement.
