PART 1 - GENERAL 1.0 This volume has been prepared as a supplement to the Hamilton City Development

Manual which has been adopted for use by the following neighbouring district councils: Waikato Waipa

Otorohanga Waitomo 2.0 The volume sets out general variances to the existing Manual and/or additional design

standards or technical specifications that should be followed for the installation of services in subdivision and contract works in the above district council areas.

Each district council may also maintain an addendum to this Manual setting out specific

district requirements, and each district reserves the right to make a final decision regarding any of these standards to suit the individual practices within their district.

Refer to Part 9 of this Volume for separate District Addendums.

Where there is any discrepancy between this volume and the relevant council’s District Plan, then the District Plan shall have precedence.

Any ambiguities between documents should be addressed to the relevant district council. 3.0 Generally, this volume follows the same Part numbering system used in Volume 2 : Design

Guide, though not all parts have additional or changed requirements :

PART 3 – ROAD WORKS 1.0 APPLICATION

This section sets out the general roading standards for the design of subdivisional roads in the district council areas listed in Part 1 : General.

2.0 REFERENCES

“Rural Road Design - A Guide to the Geometric Design of Rural Roads” - Austroads (AP-G1/03)

“Intersections at Grade” - Austroads Guide to Traffic Engineering Practice – Part 5 (AP-G11.5/05)

3.0 ROAD CLASSIFICATION

HCC’s “Table 3.1 : Road Classification” (Volume 2, Part 3 of this Manual) has been replaced in this Volume 5 by alternative tables representing the separate requirements of each district council (see Appendices 1-3 of this Road Works Part).

4.0 GEOMETRIC STANDARDS Typical cross section requirements relating to each district council are shown on the relevant Table 3.1 appended to this Part or the District Plan. Turning heads will be required at the end of all no-exit roads in accordance with Austroads Rural Road Design.

5.0 GEOMETRIC DESIGN

Geometric design, including gradients, super elevation and road widening shall be in accordance with the Austroads publication “Guide to Geometric Design for Rural Roads”.

6.0 WALKWAYS Rural residential subdivisions should make provision for pedestrian access along grass

berms. Refer to the relevant district council’s Table 3.1 appended to this Part or the District Plan.

7.0 ROAD RESERVES AND FENCING

Adequate width of road reserve is important and is normally 20 metres. Additional width is likely to be required where earthworks are extensive. A minimum clearance of 3 m is desirable between the road reserve boundary and tops of cuttings or toes of embankments.

Fences, if constructed, shall be placed on boundary lines unless written permission is received to do otherwise.

8.0 SUPER-ELEVATION OF CURVES

Super-elevation shall not normally be required on curves in rural/residential subdivisions.

9.0 PAVEMENT DESIGN Pavement design shall be in accordance with Volume 2, Part 3, Section 3.7 : Road Pavement, except that the percentage HCV’s shall be 9%.

10.0 DRAINAGE AND CULVERTS (ROAD DRAINAGE)

Channels shall generally be provided for the efficient drainage of surface water (refer to relevant district council’s appended Table 3.1 or the District Plan) and shall be graded to outlets at regular intervals not exceeding 150m. On steep grades where channels are subject to scouring, protection work may be required. Swale drains may be allowed in suitable locations in some district – refer to relevant district council for information.

Culverts, where required, shall be designed in accordance with approved engineering standards. Notwithstanding the outcome of any design calculations, no culvert traversing a road or vehicle entrance shall be smaller than 300mm in diameter.

In non-urban subdivisions where stormwater from the road formation and adjoining properties cannot be discharged via either open channels or a piped system to an approved outlet, the construction of drilled and lined soak holes and/or roadside berm drainage beds are an option. Any application for this type of disposal system must be accompanied by results of soil percolation tests, specifications and design calculations for Council’s approval. The design and testing of these drainage systems shall be carried out by an approved geotechnical engineer.

11.0 BRIDGES

Where bridging is required, the design shall comply with NZ Transport Agency standards and requirements. Approval of waterway area shall be obtained from Environment Waikato and the bridge design shall be prepared and certified by a Chartered Professional Engineer. Design calculations shall be provided to Council.

12.0 INTERSECTIONS

The location of intersections shall be chosen to ensure adequate spacing and sight distance is available for all vehicle movements.

Notes

hu = Household unit as defined in the Local Government Act 1974, Section 270.

cul-de-sac = a road having the same exit and entry location off another road.

cul-de-sac length = length from the kerb line of the road the cul-de-sac comes off, along the road centre line, to the furthest point on the kerb in the cul-de-sac head

On road parking shall be provided in residential areas at a rate of 1 park/hu.

hu on Private Ways shall be taken into account but parking on the private way shall not be considered.

Carriageway widths on cul-de-sacs may be reduced provided that off-carriageway parking, acceptable to the Roads and Traffic Manager, is provided.

Minimum road width shall be the carriageway width plus twice the standard berm width of 4.5m.

A shared environment is one where pedestrians, cyclists and motor vehicles mix on the road width with stringent design controls on the movement of motor vehicles to permit the safe mixing of all users.

Traffic volume – as a guideline in residential areas allow 7 vpd/hu.

Roads that serve a school, sportsground or reserve require special consideration

Pavement depths shall be designed in accordance with accepted Transit NZ / Austroads standards and approved by the Development Engineer.

PART 4: STORMWATER DRAINAGE The following clauses are referenced to the relevant clause in Volume 2, Part 4 unless stated otherwise. 1.0 GENERAL (Clauses 4.2 and 4.6) 1.1 Stormwater from each lot created by subdivision shall be disposed of on site either by

soakage, via retention systems, or an existing drainage system. In each case the manner of disposal shall not have adverse effect on ground water or cause disturbance to any river, lake, wetland or surrounding areas. Percolation tests may be required to determine the suitability of soils for establishment of a soakage system.

Where stormwater is designed to flow into existing drainage systems retention, systems

shall be provided to ensure that no increase in peak rate discharge results from the construction of the subdivision.

Resource consents or discharge permits may be required from Environment Waikato for

discharge into the ground, or to rivers or streams. 1.2 On-Site Stormwater Soakage For Individual Lots On-site stormwater soakage for individual lots will form part of the building consent for

each lot. 1.3 Stormwater Attenuation Stormwater attenuation may be necessary on some developments and should be designed

to meet water quantity and/or quality goals, which utilises detention and/or retention of stormwater runoff.

If a stormwater attenuation system is necessary the individual councils will provide

guidelines as to the type of stormwater system that they approve and design will be submitted to the council for final approval.

2.0 CLEARANCE FROM UNDERGROUND SERVICES (Vol 2, Part 3, DG 302)

Refer to Table 5.1 NZS 4404:2004 for required clearances. Where these clearances cannot be achieved, approval shall be obtained from the relevant district council.

Water pipes shall not be laid directly above or below other services in a common trench. 3.0 PIPES (Clause 4.10 and Vol 3 Part 4 Section A Clause 1.0)

The following pipes may be used for stormwater drainage work in each district as indicated in the table below, provided they comply with the relevant New Zealand Standard:

individual reticulation requirements (see District Council Addendums to this Volume). 1.2 Intersections (Clause 6.7)

At street intersections, two 45 degree bends are preferred rather than single 90 degree bends so that valves can be located in grass berms wherever possible. Refer Drawing DCS 604.
