Regional Council Goulburn Mulwaree The Canberra Region is a unique and diverse geographic Snowy Monaro Regional Council region which stretches from the Southern Highlands across Council the South-West Slopes, through the Sydney-Canberra Eurobodalla Shire Council Corridor down to the South Coast and then to the Snowy Snowy Valleys Council Mountains. Bega Valley Shire Council Yass Valley Council The total population of the CRJO region, including the ACT, Wagga Wagga City Council is approximately 751,000 and the total area of the region is Upper Lachlan Shire 70,500 km2. Council Canberra Airport The region produces and supports a wide range of primary Wingecarribee Shire East Gippsland Council industries including high quality meats, fine wool, dairy, horticulture, fishing and forestry. There is a significant Council ACT Government tourism industry across the whole region, with health, defence, education, public administration and construction being the main employment sectors in the ACT and Queanbeyan. Confidential - not for distribution 11 November 2018 5 METHODOLOGY NSW Regional Service Infrastructure Plan We have used the classification system from the 2056 Plan to introduce further strategic projects to improve social connectivity and economic efficiency in the region. All infrastructure projects in the CRJO were reviewed and those that most met the goals of the NSW Regional Service and Infrastructure Plan priorities for inclusion in this prospectus. Projects fall into three categories: $ Committed initiatives (0-10yrs) Initiatives that either have committed funding, are committed/ contractually committed, are for immediate detailed planning, or are part of key maintenance, renewal or safety programs. Some initiatives are subject to final business case and funding. Initiatives for investigation (0-10, 10-20yrs) Initiatives intended to be investigated for potential commitment or implementation within the next 20 years. Those listed in 0-10 horizon will be prioritised for more detailed investigation to determine if they are required in the next 20 years. Visionary initiatives (20+ years) Longer term initiatives that may be investigated within the next 10 years, but are unlikely to require implementation within 20 years.

    The Benefits of Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) Research to Funders

    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Transportation Research Procedia 14 ( 2016 ) 2477 – 2486 6th Transport Research Arena April 18-21, 2016 The benefits of Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) research to funders Tim Martin a,*, Lith Choummanivong a aARRB Group Ltd, 500 Burwood Highway, Vermont South, Victora, 3133, Australia Abstract Long-term pavement performance (LTPP) monitoring has been conducted in Australia for over 20 years. This research was funded by Austroads (representing federal, state and territory road agencies, local government and the New Zealand road agency) to promote improved practice and capability for the road agencies. The LTPP monitoring program measured performance by rutting, roughness, cracking and deflection. Initially the program involved a range of designated flexible pavement sites under varying conditions of environment and traffic. Many of these LTPP sites were included in the Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) of the United States (US). All sites were monitored in accordance with the SHRP protocols. Later long-term pavement performance maintenance (LTPPM) sites were included in the program to: (i) assess the impact of surface maintenance treatments on changes to pavement conditions (works effects, WE); and, (ii) assess the impact of maintenance on road deterioration (RD). A range of RD and WE models were developed using the LTPP/LTPPM observational data in combination with experimental data collected from Australia's Accelerated Loading Facility (ALF) that separately investigated the impact on RD of increased axle load and various typical surface maintenance treatments. The RD models cover the deterministic prediction of functional surface distress (rutting, roughness and cracking) and the loss of traffic load capacity (strength).

    ISSUE NO.73 I MARCH 2015 ABOVE REACTION FROM COSTCO MEMBERS WHEN COSTCO FUEL OPENED IN DECEMBER. COSTCO FUEL KEEPS PRICES DOWN COSTCO FUEL UNLEASHED THE PUMPS AT MAJURA PARK IN DECEMBER. As fuel prices have been a highly contentious global issue over recent years, and there is a limited amount of private fuel stations in the Nation’s Capital, the dramatic price reduction that Costco offered its members last December was very well received. A price war ensued with Woolworths and other nearby petrol stations battling it out to share the demand in the Canberra Airport area. Costco members can now buy petrol, fresh food and groceries, and even televisions at a lower cost at Majura Park, Canberra Airport. With Ikea on the way, a Masters, the largest Woolworths in the country as well as numerous specialty stores, Majura Park is proving to be a key destination for people in Canberra and the region to stock up - all with free parking.
