  • 3. Planning and Legislation
    Capital Metro Authority Capital Metro Russell Extension Project - Preliminary Environmental Assessment 3. Planning and legislation 3.1 Overview The planning approvals process for the Project would comprise a mix of both Territory and Commonwealth requirements as the Project corridor falls under the administrative authority of both the National Capital Authority (NCA) and the ACT Government through the Environment and Planning Directorate (EPD). The authority jurisdictions of the NCA and EPD are discussed in section 3.2 below. This Chapter provides an overview of the applicable planning and approvals process that the Russell Extension Project would be required to follow to gain approval. 3.1.1 Approach to planning approvals for the Russell Extension Project As noted above, the Russell Extension Project would be undertaken as Stage 2 of the proposed Civic to Gungahlin Project (Stage 1). An Environmental Impact Statement for the Stage 1 Civic to Gungahlin Project and is currently (as at September 2015) being determined by EPS. As such, the Russell Extension Project environment and planning approvals are being progressed separately to the Stage 1 planning approvals. This approach has the following key implications to the Russell Extension Project: the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) currently being prepared for the Stage 1 Civic to Gungahlin Project under the ACT Planning & Development Act 2007 (P&D Act) does not address the Russell Extension Project the Stage 1 Gungahlin to Civic Development Application to be submitted to the ACT Government

  • Figure 5.1 Non-Aboriginal Heritage and Historical Archaeology Site Within the Vicinity of the Russell Extension Project Alignment
    Capital Metro Authority Capital Metro Russell Extension Project - Preliminary Environmental Assessment Figure 5.1 Non-Aboriginal heritage and historical archaeology site within the vicinity of the Russell Extension Project alignment Parsons Brinckerhoff | 2207509A-ENV-REP-008 RevB 43 Capital Metro Authority Capital Metro Russell Extension Project - Preliminary Environmental Assessment 5.2.3 Potential impacts Aboriginal heritage The proposed Russell Extension Project alignment has been assessed for its potential to include Aboriginal archaeological and cultural sites. The assessment found that it was unlikely for either archaeological or cultural sites to exist within or in relation to the proposed Russell Extension corridor. The proposed works would therefore not impact upon places of Aboriginal heritage values along this alignment. There are no further requirements for assessment of Aboriginal heritage values for the proposed Russell Extension Project. Adequate environmental management measures would be developed and implemented during the construction of the Project to manage potential impacts to any unexpected Aboriginal heritage item uncovered during construction. Non-Aboriginal heritage and historical archaeology The Project has the potential to have an impact on listed and nominated heritage places and objects along its route. Generally, this would comprise potential impacts on the setting of heritage places and objects, rather than direct impacts on their fabric. These impacts could arise from placing new elements, such as substations, within significant settings of heritage places, or by the stops and shelters or associated infrastructure blocking important views to heritage places along London Circuit, Constitution Avenue or Russell Drive. Overall, the approach taken to the design and development of the Russell Extension Project, based on a detailed understanding of the heritage values of the heritage places along the Project alignment, has contributed positively to an appropriate approach which minimise or avoids heritage impacts.

  • Investigating the Public Transport Use and Transport Disadvantage in a Low Density Environment Yogi Vidyattama1, Hitomi Nakanishi2
    Australasian Transport Research Forum 2016 Proceedings 16 – 18 November 2016, Melbourne, Australia Publication website: http://www.atrf.info Investigating the public transport use and transport disadvantage in a low density environment Yogi Vidyattama1, Hitomi Nakanishi2 1The National Centre for Social and Economic Modelling, University of Canberra, Bruce, ACT 2601 Australia 2Built Environment and Design, Faculty of Arts and Design, University of Canberra, Bruce, ACT 2601 Australia Email for correspondence: [email protected] Abstract As a city with lower density dominated by the car, providing a public transport system is complex for Canberra. The public transport service could be seen as inefficient because of low patronage. However it is important, not only for those who face social exclusion (e.g. people at an economic disadvantage and older people) but also to avoid congestion and reduce pollution levels. Nevertheless, without sufficient demand the provision can be very expensive for the government and funding allocation is crucial. Therefore, this study aims to investigate how bus services can be effectively improved in Canberra. The overall aim is to minimise the transport disadvantage often caused by poor public transport services. To do so, this research will investigate the difference in travel patterns of various social groups of passengers (students, older people and pensioners and adults) by using smart card data. The study will first compare the travel patterns of these groups. We will then examine the pattern of movement of the more vulnerable such as older people and students compared to general adult passengers. We will discuss transfer between buses further in order to pinpoint specific bus stops or terminals which could be improved to meet the specific needs of certain passengers.
