Childcare Centre

Amber Organisation staff prepare a Traffic Impact Assessment for the 118 place childcare centre located in regional Victoria. Key considerations included the provision of car parking against the requirements of the Planning Scheme and the design of the car park to ensure it operates in a safe and efficient manner. Our Director also provided expert witness services to VCAT to support the development.

Amber Organisation assisted with the preparation of a Traffic Impact Assessment report for a proposed childcare centre in Ringwood. The project involved the consolidation of two lots and in order to provide suitable access, a bus stop and street tree were required to be relocated.

Amber were able to arrange an on-site meeting with state and local government officers to facilitate the necessary changes to the infrastructure to provide clarity and comfort to the project team.

One of our Directors recently presented as an expert witness for the 84-place childcare centre located on Maddox Road in Newport. The site is located next to a primary school which resulted in the road network being congested during peak school times. We undertook traffic surveys within the vicinity of the site and prepared a traffic modelling assessment using SIDRA to confirm that the vehicle movements from the childcare centre could be accommodated on the road network.

Amber has completed a Traffic Impact Assessment report for the childcare centre in Viewbank which is expected to accommodate 128 children. The project proposes to accommodate all car parking within a basement level. We provided design advice and a swept path assessment to ensure the car park is suitably design in accordance with the Planning Scheme. Childcare centres are often accessed via large vehicles associated with parents and need to be provided with additional space to ensure they are useable and provide a safe environment.
