High Density Car Parking Considerations Checklist:
•
Where possible car parking should be provided at basement level to improve the relationship of the building with the street and to minimise negative impacts of vehicular movement and parking. Consider a loading bay and vehicle requirements of tenants moving in and out. Ensure a standard moving truck can be accommodated and clearances considered to enable trucks can easily access lifts and entries. Allow for a lockable storage room large enough for tenants moving in or out to store the contents of their apartment, nominally 30-40m2.
