Matters may include, but are not limited to, how rail corridors might contribute to: • providing opportunities for mixed use property development • generating income for funding future infrastructure projects; • facilitating sustainable urban renewal and development; • facilitation of transit oriented development schemes around railway stations; • connectivity of communities either side of railway lines. Other areas of inquiry will include: • the current planning and policy framework; • regulatory and policy barriers to implementing rail corridor projects; • issues relating to the financing and funding of such projects; • methods of assessing the compatibility of projects with the local community; • examples of best practice from other jurisdictions. iv REPORT 1/55 UTILISATION OF RAIL CORRIDORS Chair’s Foreword There is growing demand in our major New South Wales cities for housing which is close to shops, schools, public transport and workplaces. One way to meet that demand is transit oriented development (TOD) and our rail corridors offer ideal locations. Well-designed, mixed use, development over or adjacent to the rail corridor, at or within walking distance of a railway station, has the capacity to increase public transport usage, provide accessible locations for businesses and community facilities and create vibrant, friendly neighbourhoods. Current NSW Government initiatives and reforms—the Long Term Transport Master Plan, the Planning System Green Paper, Infrastructure NSW's 20 Year State Infrastructure Strategy— provide an ideal opportunity to plan for transit oriented developments at strategic locations across the Greater Sydney Metropolitan Area. The recommendations which the Committee on Transport and Infrastructure has made in this report will facilitate the identification and marketing of TOD opportunities, remove current planning and approval barriers, and effect practical governance arrangements. The Committee is supporting the establishment of a specialised unit within UrbanGrowth NSW to champion transit oriented development above and along the rail corridor: guiding, promoting and coordinating the process. The Committee envisages that the unit will work closely with local and state government, local landowners, the community and the development industry. While acknowledging the complexities of building over or along the rail corridor the Committee also notes that engineering challenges have substantially diminished over time. The lack of TOD relative to the number of potential TOD opportunities suggests that the substantive issues are about risk, delays in planning and approvals and a lack of flexibility by Government agencies. The Committee considers that transit oriented mixed use development should be an essential component in both urban growth and urban renewal because of the social, economic and environmental benefits it provides. Medium to high density housing with easy access to frequent public transport services can reduce car dependency and encourage active forms of transport such as walking and cycling, resulting in less congestion on our roads, less pollution and better health outcomes. Mixed use development provides locations for shops, businesses and recreational pursuits, further reducing the need for private transport, as well as growing local economies. We have an opportunity to create liveable, walkable neighbourhoods which meet the needs of 21st century city dwellers. In addition, the Committee believes that transit oriented development of appropriate sites along and above the rail corridor has the potential to generate income for funding infrastructure projects and to maximise the return from lazy government assets. I wish to thank all who participated in the inquiry, members of the Committee for their contributions and Committee staff for their support. Charles Casuscelli RFD MP Chair NOVEMBER 2012 v COMMITTEE ON TRANSPORT AND INFRASTRUCTURE Executive Summary Key issues The key issues examined by the Committee are the benefits and challenges associated with utilising land adjacent to and air space above the rail corridor, and possible reforms to overcome these challenges. Inquiry participants discussed the potential social, economic and environmental benefits of transit oriented developments. This type of development, which has been successfully undertaken in countries around the world, would capitalise on available land in close proximity

The Proposal includes the following scope of works: • Hornsby Junction Remodelling: installation, removal and reconditioning of track work, overhead wiring and signalling infrastructure between Waitara and Asquith. The Proposal would also include a new train driver’s walkway and a train ‘turnback’ facility (track work that allows trains to pass from one track on a diverging path) located about 30 metres south of Bridge Road, Hornsby. • Commuter car park: new multi-storey car park structure that provides approximately 230 additional parking spaces. The Proposal would also include a new vehicular entry and exit from the George Street/Burdett Street intersection (via reconfigured traffic signals) and the relocation of the high voltage overhead power lines (owned by Sydney Trains) from the site of the existing commuter car park. Overview of findings This HIA concludes that the construction of the commuter car park would have a moderate visual impact on two items of local heritage significance: • The Hornsby Railway Station group and Barracks, listed on the Railcorp (now Sydney Trains) section 170 register: The proposed carpark is likely to result in a moderate visual impact to the heritage railway station through the introduction of a structure currently occupied by ground-level carparking.

In December 2006, WCC announced that it had signed contracts with the Charter Hall Group to purchase the 99-year lease- hold of the Depot for what has been reported to be in excess of $51 million. WCC’s General Manager, John Owen, says redevelopment of the site will bol- ster economic activity in the industrial area, and allow the council to use the lease income on other projects such as Artarmon Library and the Chatswood Youth Centre. No doubt, the deal also offers certainty for the building of the new $150 million Civic Place in Chatswood, plans for which have been dogged by questions over funding.

  • Urban Consolidation – Its Impact on Sense of Place
    Urban consolidation – Its impact on sense of place. Prepared for Planning and Urban Development Program The Faculty of the Built Environment University of New South Wales By: Christina Heather - 3132447 The photo on the front describes some urban consolidation occurring within the Ku-ring-gai Council Local Government Area. The aerial photo is not up-to-date. Since the aerial photograph was taken, two other large sites, of similar size, have been excavated surrounding this house. Source of Aerial photograph: Department of Lands 2008. ABSTRACT Australia is one of the most urbanised societies in the world and the urban processes that have led to Sydney’s formation and growth have been dynamic. Population growth has placed pressure upon transport, health and education services, land availability and housing costs. Urban consolidation has been imposed by the State Government to limit urban sprawl, to ensure that all councils contribute to the supply of medium density housing, and to develop more space-efficient residential land use practices. This thesis examines the impact of urban consolidation on selected communities within middle-ring suburbs in metropolitan Sydney. It is argued that whilst urban consolidation is a positive force for change, a key element – the socio-cultural – is not being given due consideration. This thesis considers whether urban consolidation as expressed in the Transit Oriented Development approach has compromised the sense of place in some communities. The research findings indicate there is a risk that the lack of effective planning measures for better managing urban consolidation at the local level may lead to dramatic changes in the social-cultural character of suburbs.
