How common is mapped flood risk across Trinity Park properties?

Counts of properties, not share of land, across 1,509 analysed Trinity Park properties; no individual property result is identified.

Aircraft noise and flight paths over Trinity Park

The ANEF contour is a published planning forecast and observed overflight is what a sampled tracking feed recorded - neither describes any individual property.

Inside an aircraft noise contour

6%

6% of the suburb's land sits inside a published ANEF or airport-environs contour. Contours vary street by street, so whether a particular lot is inside one needs a property-level check.

Highest contour present

ANEF 20

Under AS 2021, land between ANEF 20 and 25 is conditionally acceptable for houses, usually with noise attenuation built in. The contour is a forecast, not a measurement at any one house.

How often

aircraft were seen, but not often enough to put a rate on

Night movements: observed, lowest 1,500 ft - night is sampled as often as day, but night traffic is light, so this is a floor and no rate can be put on it.

How this is measured

Traffic is sampled rather than watched continuously, so every figure is a floor: aircraft not captured between samples are not represented. Rates are per 500 m square - the busiest square in the suburb, not a count of flights over the suburb - and a square is only rated where enough traffic was seen to measure it. Altitudes are above mean sea level. Flight paths change with runway use, weather, season and airspace design. This is a record of observed traffic; it is not a noise contour and not a planning control.

Trinity Park planning - frequently asked

Is Trinity Park flood-prone?

About 83% of Trinity Park falls within a mapped flood overlay, against the council-wide suburb average of 55%. Across the suburb, 70% of the 1,509 properties we analysed carry some level of mapped flood risk, including 1051 rated high risk or historically affected. Published flood models are held over parts of Trinity Park; the free check on the Flood Model Report page says whether one reaches a given address.

Is Trinity Park bushfire-prone?

Around 22% of Trinity Park is mapped as bushfire-prone, compared with a Cairns Regional average of 23%.

Is Trinity Park affected by aircraft noise?

About 6% of Trinity Park sits inside a published aircraft noise contour, and the highest contour present is ANEF 20 - under AS 2021, land between ANEF 20 and 25 is conditionally acceptable for houses, usually with noise attenuation in the build. ANEF contours are forecasts published per airport and used to control noise-sensitive development; they are not a measurement at any one house, and a property can sit under a flight path and outside every contour.
