for water sensitive urban design, including any provisions of the Territory Plan or supporting policy documents.

Parking, access and movement

Parking should generally be in accordance with ACT Government planning requirements, including in relation to cars, motorcycles and bicycles.

Development proposals must demonstrate that buildings will be Electric Vehicle (EV) ready and accommodate EV charging infrastructure. This includes ensuring that parking spaces include appropriate wiring, a covered outlet, and a final connection point for an EV charger. Capacity, wiring provision and load management must also form part of infrastructure considerations.

At a minimum, the following EV ready infrastructure must be provided for parking spaces associated with Residential, Commercial Accommodation, and Community Facility (Institutional Facility) uses:

       * Each residential dwelling must have a minimum of one EV ready parking space.

       * At least 1 car parking space per 4 visitor car parking spaces must be EV ready.

       * Where separate parking is provided for bicycles and/or motorbikes, charging facilities are provided.

For ancillary commercial uses, a minimum of 20% of parking spaces allocated to this use, for both staff and visitors, must be EV ready.

No additional vehicular access points to the site are permitted from Bentham Street.

Pedestrian and cycles links through the site should support convenient access to and from key locations such as Forestry Oval, Yarralumla shops, and public transport. These routes must be available for public use, provide safe and well-lit passage, demonstrate non-discriminatory and equitable access, and incorporate suitable way-finding.
