Inefficiencies in transport links drive up the costs of doing business in the Illawarra and compromise future opportunities for market expansion. There are strong concerns that without effective planning and action now to address this issue, the projected expansion in the passenger and freight movement task over the next 20 years will see the transport and logistics costs for business increase significantly.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] The Illawarra Escarpment Abstract The llIawarra escarpment is one of the most striking features of the N.S.W. coast, for it runs like a great unbreached wall for some 120km, and dominates the narrow plains below. Vet little hes been written about it, and some of the brief commentaries that have appeared are incorrect. This account outlines the major feature. of the escarpment, its origins, and also the hazards of land slip encountered on its slopes. Publication Details This report was originally published as Young, RW, The Illawarra Escarpment, Wollongong Studies in Geography No.2, Department of Geography, University of Wollongong, 1980, 4p. This report is available at Research Online: https://ro.uow.edu.au/wollgeo/2 Some parts of the escarpment have been worn back much farther from the coast than have others. At first sight this seems, as Griffith Taylor (1923) argued, to be simply a matter of the differential resistance to erosion of the varied rocks exposed along the escarpment.
