Queensland end-of-trip facilities requirements

All new major developments in Queensland are now required to provide end-of-trip facilities for cyclists, runners and walkers under an amendment to the Queensland Development Code (QDC) that came into effect on 26 November 2010. End-of trip facilities include secure bike racks, lockers and showers for the use of commuters.

Buildings required to provide these facilities include office buildings, shopping centres, tertiary education facilities and hospitals. The amended QDC applies to buildings greater than 2000 metres squared and building additions greater than 1000 metres squared.

Full details of the new requirements can be found on the Queensland Department of Infrastructure and Planning website.
