  • Putting Hume First James Harker-Mortlock
    PUTTING HUME FIRST JAMES HARKER-MORTLOCK – INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE FOR HUME STATEMENT IN REGARD TO BARTON HIGHWAY DUPLICATION 12th December 2012 James Harker-Mortlock, independent candidate for the seat of Hume, stated today : ‘The saga of the duplication of the Barton Highway has been going on for too long. Too often people are injured or even killed on the Highway. Between 2009 and 2011, 16 people lost their lives and more than 160 were injured. Now is the time for action. I have made obtaining the funding for the completion of the Barton Highway my number one policy in my campaign for the seat of Hume. Unfortunately, the Barton Highway duplication appears to have been forgotten by the major parties. The Coalition completed some work at the Canberra end of the highway in the early 2000s and promised $264 million in the federal election campaign in 2007 to complete the duplication. The ALP Government has completed improvements on the Capricorn Corner and Gounyan Curves and has announced the installation of a right hand turning lane at Murrumbateman Road and the straightening of a one kilometre section of the Highway to its south. Whilst these improvements are much appreciated they are not enough. Not nearly enough. In a Report released in 2007 by the Australian Road Assessment Program (AusRAP), the NSW section of the Barton Highway was shown to be the worst section of AusLink-funded road in NSW. The report gave a two-star (out of five stars, with five being the safest) rating to 43 per cent of the NSW section of the road, with three stars for the remaining 57 per cent.

Executive summary 1.1 Purpose Transport for NSW has prepared this business case on the staged duplication of the Barton Highway on behalf of the Australian Government. During this process, Transport for NSW consulted the Barton Highway Duplication Steering Committee, comprising stakeholders from: • Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Cities and Regional Development • Transport for NSW • Yass Valley Council. The Barton Highway is a strategically important rural highway linking the southern and western areas of NSW to the ACT. This business case for staged duplication of the highway will deliver the safety improvements and increased capacity required to meet current and future traffic demands. It will also support the continued economic growth and connectivity commitments as identified in the Barton Highway Improvement Strategy (2017).

  • VINCI Construction Wins Motorway Contracts in Australia
    Rueil-Malmaison, 5 October 2020 VINCI Construction wins motorway contracts in Australia • Upgrades to a stretch of the M1 Pacific motorway, the main motorway connection along the east coast of Australia • Upgrades to Barton Highway, a major route used to transport goods between New South Wales, Canberra, and Victoria • Two contracts worth a total €200 million Seymour Whyte, a VINCI Construction subsidiary based in Australia, has won two motorway upgrade contracts worth a total 330 million AUD (about €200 million). The first contract, worth 270 million AUD (€165 million), is for the third upgrade package on the M1 Pacific Motorway between Varsity Lakes and Tugun near the border between Queensland and New South Wales. Following on from the first package won by Seymour Whyte in June 2020, this contract involves widening a 5km section of the motorway to three lanes in both directions, upgrading motorway bridges and slip roads, building a new service road and preserving the corridor for a possible future rail extension. This work, which also includes integrating smart motorway technologies, will help to reduce travel times for the 90,000 motorists who use this section each day. The second contract, worth 60 million AUD (€37 million), will be carried out by an alliance chosen by Transport for NSW, between Seymour Whyte (responsible for the construction, 94%) and SMEC (tasked with the design, 6%). It involves upgrading a stretch of the Barton Highway between the Australian capital Canberra and Murrumbateman 280 km south west of Sydney in New South Wales. The package includes a new two-lane northbound carriageway, modifications to the existing Barton Highway, intersection upgrades, drainage works and relocation of services and utilities, as well as landscaping work.
