Traffic, transport and access Chapter 11 provides an assessment of the existing and proposed transportation network surrounding the Moorebank Intermodal Terminal (IMT) (the Project), as well as potential traffic, transport and access impacts resulting from construction and operation of the Project. This chapter summarises the detailed assessment in Technical Paper 1 - Traffic, Transport and Accessibility Impact Assessment, which was prepared by Parsons Brinckerhoff and is included in Volume 3 of this Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). In particular, the assessment addresses the Commonwealth Department of the Environment (DoE)'s Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) Guidelines and the Secretary for the NSW Department of Planning and Environment (NSW DP&E)’s Environmental Assessment Requirements (NSW SEARs) for the Project listed in Table 11.1.

These control systems would include: • A central motorway control centre to manage the New M5 when it is operational • Traffic monitoring and management systems along the project • Air quality monitoring and management systems within the main alignment tunnels • Incident and emergency response infrastructure • Maintenance facilities • Motorway tolling infrastructure. Motorway control centre A WestConnex motorway control centre would be provided within the Burrows Road motorway operations complex (MOC5) (refer to Figure 5-42). The motorway control centre would be the central building for all communications and control of the project’s operational management control systems. The motorway control centre would be staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and would require around 26 full time equivalent staff. The motorway control centre would include a video wall and operating interfaces for all monitoring and control systems, an incident control facility, training and incident response room, air conditioning, power supply systems and workforce facilities (ie amenities). An indicative layout of the motorway control centre is shown in Figure 5-42. Urban design principles would be applied to the motorway control centre to integrate the building with St Peters interchange and the surrounding landscape to minimise its visual impact.

    M5 Fact Sheet

    NOVEMBER 2009 M5 corridor expansion – about the project The M5 transport corridor is the main road freight, commercial and commuter route between Port Botany and Sydney Airport, and south west Sydney. In recent years traffic levels and the number of heavy vehicles on this route means the corridor is operating at or near capacity during peak periods. This impacts on Sydney’s economic productivity and competitiveness. This fact sheet provides a summary of the project and provides details on how to find out more information. What is the M5 corridor? Key features of the proposed M5 corridor expansion The M5 Transport Corridor is the main road freight, are: commercial and commuter route between Port • Widening the existing M5 South West Motorway Botany and Sydney Airport, and south west Sydney. from two to three lanes in each direction.

    Section 2 Issues This section summarises the current issues facing the South West Local Area and provides directions to inform the LAP. 2 38 South West Local Area - Issues Paper Section 2 Liveable The Community Plan vision for 'Liveable' is: . A city that is well planned, attractive and sustainable; a city that provides affordable, attractive and sustainable housing; a city with high quality community assets; a city that protects and promotes its history and identity. 2.1.1 Current Urban form Urban form refers to the way the local area looks and feels. It includes dwelling types and their age, building height, the concentration of dwellings in a given area (or ‘density’), and the public domain areas including footpaths, roads, parks and plazas. Urban form also refers to how these elements integrate with natural features of the local area such as topography, bushlands and the areas around the Georges River and its tributaries. The existing urban form in the three local area centres – Panania, Panania Top of the Hill and East Hills – and the neighbourhood areas is discussed below. The role of the centres in Bankstown City has been previously identified in Council’s Residential Development Strategy as follows: Panania - Small Village Centre – this centre captures land within 400m of Panania Station. Panania Top of the Hill – Neighbourhood Centre - this centre captures land within 150m of the middle of the mainstreet. East Hills - Neighbourhood Centre – this centres capture land within 150m of the East Hills Railway Station.

    Chapter 4 – Strategic Context and Project Need

    Chapter 4 – Strategic context and project need 4 Strategic context and project need 4.1 Current issues with the road network 4.1.1 Traffic congestion across Greater Sydney Traffic growth is forecast across NSW and will include around one million extra road users in Sydney within the next decade and nearly twice the freight movements by 2031. Congestion across metropolitan Sydney is estimated to cost up to $6.1 billion per annum, rising to $12.6 billion by 2030 if nothing is done1. Travel by road is the dominant transport mode in Sydney. Even with high growth in rail freight and public transport, road travel is predicted to continue to be the most dominant travel choice for at least the next 20 years2. Traffic congestion impacts communities and businesses by: • Affecting Sydney’s large and significant freight, service and business operations • Reducing the reliability of, and accessibility to, public transport • Constraining the movement of pedestrians and cyclists • Reducing amenity for nearby residents, pedestrians, cyclists and sensitive land uses (educational and health facilities). 4.1.2 Missing regional motorway link In Sydney’s South District (which includes the Canterbury-Bankstown, Georges River and Sutherland LGAs), over 50 per cent of journeys are undertaken by car. There is currently no motorway between the existing M1 Princes Motorway south of Waterfall and the Sydney motorway network. All local and through traffic, including heavy vehicle traffic, is currently required to use the arterial road network to travel between Waterfall and Sydney, principally the A1 Princes Highway, the A3 King Georges Road and / or the A6 Heathcote Road / New Illawarra Road.

    MPW Stage 3 Location

    9 April 2020 Fei Chen Graduate Project Manager Tactical Group Dear Fei, Re: Non-Aboriginal Heritage Assessment: Moorebank Precinct West Stage 3 Artefact Heritage (Artefact) has been engaged by Tactical Group (Tactical), on behalf of the Sydney Intermodal Terminal Alliance (SIMTA), to prepare this non-Aboriginal heritage assessment to inform the Moorebank Precinct West (MPW) Stage 3 Environmental Impact Assessment. SIMTA has been issued Development Consent (SSD 5066) for MPW Stage 1 and (SSD 7709) for MPW Stage 2, under Part 4, Division 4.1 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act), to construct and operate an intermodal terminal (IMT) and associated warehouses on the western side of Moorebank Avenue, Moorebank (the MPW site). It is understood that as part of MPW Stage 3, SIMTA propose to progressively subdivide the WPW site and establish a temporary works compound and associated road and underground utilities on the southern half of the MPW site. The purpose of this report is to provide a non-Aboriginal heritage assessment for the proposed works in accordance with the Planning Secretary’s Environmental Assessment Requirements (SEARs) issued for MPW Stage 3 (SSD 10431) on 20 March 2020. The report would inform the MPW Stage 3 EIS and confirm if the impacts will be consistent with the approved SSD 5066 and SSD 7709. A separate Aboriginal heritage assessment has also been prepared to inform MPW Stage 3. MPW Stage 3 Location The MPW site is generally bounded by the Georges River to the west, Moorebank Avenue to the east, the East Hills Railway Line to the south and the M5 Motorway to the north (Figure 1).
