FERRY TERMINAL DESIGN SPECIFICATION
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS - May 2011
Lighting levels within the waiting areas, on the walkway and gangway and on the pontoon are to be
minimum of 150 lux 12 months after the commencement of operations with the glare to be managed so
as not to interfere with navigation or adjacent properties. Council’s preference is for LED lighting;
The structures must be designed to accommodate the worst case mooring loads of 2 CityCats under full
flood conditions, unless approved otherwise by the Council;
Ensure the ferry terminal is accessible for emergency services;
Provide security and passenger hold-point gates on the pontoon, gangway, walkway and terminal as
directed and approved by Council.
Incorporate built in vandal-resistant materials;
Provide bike storage areas; and
Selection of design and materials should be based on “whole-of-life” costs and ease and safety of
construction. The design must incorporate pre-fabricated materials and elements that minimise on-site
construction time;
