Campus or campus-type developments – Entrance to consider

For assessments on sites with multiple buildings (e.g. education campus, business or industrial parks):

  • Distances to amenities and public transport nodes can be measured from the site’s main entrance if ≥80% of buildings are within 1000 m. Otherwise, use the assessed building’s main entrance, and in such cases, where multiple buildings are included, calculations must always be based on the worst-case scenario (the entrance furthest from the node or amenity)
  • Where the site has more than one main entrance, either entrance may be used for the calculation.

Purpose: To ensure fair assessment on large sites and to encourage the provision or location of amenities and public transport nodes within or at the periphery of the site.

Note: wording update for clarification and including BIU
