Progress Since 2012 Progress Since 2012 Name Suburb Region/District Project Type Project Description Current Status 2nd Bulk Liquids Berth Port Botany Eastern City Freight Planning approval to develop a second Bulk Liquids Completed District Berth (BLB2) at Port Botany was received in 2008. On 31 May 2011, John Holland Pty Ltd was engaged to construct the BLB2. The berth became operational in December 2013. The main products handled at the BLB are refined fuels, gases and chemicals / other bulk liquids. BLB2 comprise a steel piled pier adjacent to the existing BLB1; associated infrastructure such as marine loading arms, fire fighting equipment, onshore support facilities and pipelines from existing user sites to the new berth. The open access, multi user berth operates on a 24 hour/ 7 day per week basis. BLB2 has been designed to accommodate 120,000 dead weight tonne vessels to a maximum of 270m length overall.

  • Western Corridor Planning Strategy
    NEWCASTLE- LAKE MACQUARIE WESTERN CORRIDOR PLANNING STRATEGY The Lower Hunter Regional Strategy: 2006–2031 (Department of Planning 2006) provides the land use planning framework to guide sustainable growth in the region over the next 25 years. It recognises the lands in the Newcastle–Lake Macquarie western corridor as proposed urban, employment and environmental conservation lands. This corridor covers land from Beresfield to Killingworth, including Minmi, Cameron Park, West Wallsend and Edgeworth (See Map 1, Page 2). The Newcastle–Lake Macquarie Western Corridor Planning Strategy identifies key planning principles and known infrastructure requirements that will guide future urban expansion and conservation in the western corridor. The planning principles take into consideration proximity to existing residential areas and employment lands, site constraints, major transport linkages and regional and local conservation corridors. The planning principles and infrastructure requirements provide the key considerations in the preparation of environmental studies that accompany rezoning proposals. This planning strategy should also assist councils, landowners and developers in coordinating urban structure elements and infrastructure for sites. Development projections The anticipated development projection for the western corridor is 8000 dwellings after taking into consideration site constraints. This represents a potential dwelling yield of around eight dwellings per hectare. This planning strategy recognises a potential 1500 hectares of employment lands in the north (Black Hill) and south (West Wallsend and Killingworth) of the corridor that will provide additional employment opportunities to further strengthen the regional economy. The indicative preferred land uses identified CONTENTS in Map 4 are generally consistent with the Lower Hunter Regional Strategy. Rezoning proposals will be assessed to determine whether the land is suitable for development.

Concrete Slab and Arch Bridges 101 Masonry Bridges Heritage Study of Masonry Bridges in NSW 2005 1 Historical Overview of Bridge Types in NSW: Extract from the Study of Masonry Bridges in NSW HISTORICAL BACKGROUND TO MASONRY BRIDGES IN NSW 1.1 History of early bridges constructed in NSW Bridges constructed prior to the 1830s were relatively simple forms. The majority of these were timber structures, with the occasional use of stone piers. The first bridge constructed in NSW was built in 1788. The bridge was a simple timber bridge constructed over the Tank Stream, near what is today the intersection of George and Bridge Streets in the Central Business District of Sydney. Soon after it was washed away and needed to be replaced. The first "permanent" bridge in NSW was this bridge's successor. This was a masonry and timber arch bridge with a span of 24 feet erected in 1803 (Figure 1.1). However this was not a triumph of colonial bridge engineering, as it collapsed after only three years' service. It took a further five years for the bridge to be rebuilt in an improved form. The contractor who undertook this work received payment of 660 gallons of spirits, this being an alternative currency in the Colony at the time (Main Roads, 1950: 37) Figure 1.1 “View of Sydney from The Rocks, 1803”, by John Lancashire (Dixson Galleries, SLNSW).

The Australian and NSW governments have committed $2 billion to deliver the M1 Pacific Motorway extension to Raymond Terrace and Hexham Straight projects. The extension would boost the regional economy and improve connectivity, road transport eciency and safety for local and interstate motorists. The project addresses a key national motorway ‘missing link’ between Sydney and Brisbane as the existing M1 Pacific Motorway, New England Highway and Pacific Highway carry some of the highest trac volumes across the Hunter. Better movement of Once complete, the extension would remove up to 25,000 vehicles a day from key congestion and freight merge points along this corridor and would help keep freight, commuters and tourists moving. The project includes 15 kilometres of dual carriageway and provides motorway access from the existing road network from four new Saving motorists interchanges at Black Hill, Tarro, Tomago and up to Raymond Terrace. 9 minutes during peak time The project also includes a 2.6 kilometre viaduct over the Hunter River and floodplain, the Main North Rail Line, and the New England Highway. It would also provide new bridge crossings over Bypass up to local waterways at Tarro and Raymond Terrace, and an overpass for Masonite Road at Heatherbrae. 5 trac lights Key benefits On opening, the M1 Pacific Motorway extension to Raymond Terrace would save motorists between seven and nine minutes of travel time during peak periods, bypass up to five sets of trac lights and reduce trac demand on existing key routes across the road The key benefits of the proposed extension network.
