ii. avoids, remedies or mitigates adverse visual effects with particular regard to views from adjacent Mixed Housing and Public Open Space zoned land. This includes whether boundary planting is of a suitable species, spacing and size to provide screening of the new buildings when viewed from the adjoining Public Open Space zoned land.

iii. includes provision for specimen trees in appropriate locations with particular regard to the need to mitigate the effects of the loss of any existing trees which need to be removed during development

iv. provides adequate topsoil depth to allow for optimum growing conditions for boundary screen planting. This would be required to be achieved through mounding where existing ground conditions are not adequate to provide minimum topsoil depths of 1m for trees and 0.4m for shrubs.

i. widening Linwood Avenue by approximately 2.2m in the vicinity of the site access points to allow for the provision of a central painted flush median and the provision of left turn slip lanes for vehicles turning left into the site from Linwood Avenue. These works are intended to reduce delays for other traffic using Linwood Avenue. Any loss of on-street parking due to the road widening is to be mitigated by the provision of replacement parking in recessed parking bays at suitable locations on Linwood Avenue.

ii. the upgrading of vehicle access points to the campus from Linwood Avenue to a sealed width of 10m. This work will allow the provision of separate left and right turn lanes for vehicles exiting the site and will assist in minimising delays for vehicles exiting the site.

iii. modification of the vertical alignment of Linwood Avenue to ensure that adequate visibility is maintained at the northern Linwood Avenue access for traffic safety

iv. provision of low noise generating surfaces, such as friction course sealing, on Linwood Avenue adjacent to the southern Linwood Avenue access into the campus

v. the enhancement of existing pedestrian access from Linwood Avenue in order to minimise pedestrian and vehicle conflict

vi. the design and implementation of intersection upgrades (to the extent that these are required to deal with traffic effects generated by the development on site) for the following intersections:

•St Lukes Road and Linwood Avenue

•Linwood Avenue and Rossgrove Terrace and

•Rossgrove Terrace and Asquith Avenue

vii.the implementation of a transport demand management strategy to reduce reliance on private motor vehicles by tertiary education institute staff and students as a means of transport to the site and to minimise the increase in peak period traffic generation

b.the extent to which the proposal provides for safe pedestrian access into and within the site (other than from Martin Avenue). This will include consideration of the pedestrian connections from the site to the adjoining street network and the Asquith Avenue campus

c.the extent to which new buildings include suitable screening and/or use toughened glass to minimise damage to people and campus property caused by golf balls from the adjoining golf course

d.where the boundary planting along the north eastern boundary of the site required by clause 3.9.3 above is not yet of sufficient height and form to provide adequate visual screening of the parking building when viewed from the golf course:

i. the car parking building must be designed such that its building form and north western façade treatment reduces the visual impact of the bulk of the building and provides interest through façade modulation, setbacks, contrasting materials, parapet and or roof forms and building openings.
