4.1.2 ATN LINK

The active transport link at Iron Cove is shown in Figure 4.5 and is a key connector that would:

• Connect northern suburbs of Drummoyne [and Russell Lea and Five Dock via ] to The Bays Precinct and the CBD • Connect the existing retail centres on Darling Street Balmain and as well as local schools and other community services • Provide a direct route, notwithstanding significant gradient changes, from towards Darling Street • Capitalise on the amenity uplifts potentially assisted by forecast traffic volume reductions on Victoria Iron Cove Road Victoria Road • Connect to ATN routes on local roads • Link significant open space from the Bay Run, and the future open space at Rail Yards and foreshore along The Bays Precinct. The key route requirements are to: Callan Rozelle Glebe • Provide a separated cycleway and footpath on the Park Island southern side of Victoria Road along the extent of White Bay M4-M5 Link works Power Station • Provide a template for the treatment of cycleways and footpaths along the remainder of Victoria Road.

ACTIVE TRANSPORT STRATEGY 31 SUMMARY OF FUTURE LINKS 6.0 Future Consultation

The proposed active transport routes provided in this report outline a possible future form for the ATN within and around the M4-M5 Link corridor. To realise the routes proposed, further consultation would be carried out with local councils, Transport for NSW, bicycle user groups, the community and adjacent land holders and developers.

The routes identified as being delivered by M4-M5 Link [see section 4.1] would be developed further in the UDLPs to be prepared for the project. The UDLPs would cover detail including:

• Path width Cooks River George Street Cycle Way The Bay Run • Path delineation [eg separated cycleways and pedestrian paths, shared paths] • Path connections to the existing network. See images on this page for examples of typologies.

The above would be developed in accordance with:

• Austroads Guidelines • NSW Bicycle Guidelines • Planning Guidelines for Walking and Cycling. The routes identified as potential future projects [section 5] would be made available for incorporation into the Roads and Maritime Principle Bicycle Network. This would enable Kent Street Cycle Way Bourke Street Cycle Way these routes to be developed by either Roads and Maritime or local councils following further consultation with landowners and the community.

Principles for wayfinding would be considered in the development of these routes [see Annexure 4].

ACTIVE TRANSPORT STRATEGY ANNEXURE 1 Inner City regional routes The Inner Sydney Regional Bicycle Network is a plan that has been developed with a number of councils to identify cross regional cycling links within inner Sydney. The project was undertaken in 2010 and included an economic analysis of the route including a cost/benefit ratio. The network has been refined on a number of occasions since its original development. Callan The network was developed to ensure a coordinated and Park connected network was developed for inner Sydney. The network includes 160 kilometres of cycleways which are separated from general traffic and 70 kilometres of upgraded shared paths. Tumbalong Park This strategy is shown in Figure 8.3.

These strategies identify a number of regional routes and local routes which supplement and support the Inner Sydney Callan Regional Bicycle Network. Park

The City of Sydney has also developed a Liveable Green Network which includes a pedestrian network in addition to the cycle network. The routes in the network are designed to encourage walking to local destinations and include footpath Tumbalong widening, lower speed limits and improved crossings as well Park as facilities such as seating and bubblers.
