Lessons learnt Predicting the impact of stacks As an example, modelling by CSIRO using actual emission data from the M5 East tunnel predicted The predictive air quality modelling for tunnel the maximum contribution of the stack to annual stacks is robust and conservative.

Numerous measures have been to the widespread adoption of the stack as a identified that are both cheaper and more effective means of reducing the ground-level impact of at improving air quality than road tunnel filtrations. atmospheric releases. An 18 month trial of filtration of tunnel air was Discharging vehicle emissions via well-designed conducted in the westbound tunnel of the M5 East stacks ensures that they are dispersed and from March 2010 to September 2011.

For more information see Technical Paper 8 – Options for treating road tunnel emissions. 1 The greater contribution of NOx reflects that motor vehicles contribute a much greater proportion of NOx than PM emissions. 2 | Advisory Committee on Tunnel Air Quality This is consistent with the conclusions of the ladened heavy vehicles (eg trucks returning from National Health and Medical Research Council the port). Secondly the steep grade slows down that the most effective way to manage air quality heavy vehicles which contribute to congestion both in and around tunnels is through vehicle fleet throughout the west bound tunnel further adding emission reductions (NHMRC 2008). to vehicle emissions as compared to free flowing traffic. Consequently the Cross City and Lane Cove Tunnel ventilation system design tunnels were designed to minimise gradients. It is important for community acceptance of road A key design requirement for new road tunnel tunnels as an effective transport solution that projects is to minimise grades. tunnels are designed and operated to deliver Locate ventilation stacks close to exit points a good user experience. It is fair to say that, particularly in the first years after opening, the In order to address strong community concern M5 East did not deliver a good user experience. regarding the location of the proposed three In light of this, the Lane Cove and Cross City stacks for the M5 East the ventilation system was tunnels were designed to ensure that in-tunnel air redesigned to recirculate the tunnel air to a single quality met community expectations. However, stack 900 metres from the tunnel alignment. The in practice the Lane Cove and Cross City tunnel consequent design is inefficient using significantly ventilation systems have proved over-designed, more energy than equivalent tunnels operating and the approval conditions have resulted in with ventilation stacks located near the portals. inefficient operating regimes. The most energy and cost effective location There are a number of lessons that can be learnt for stacks is at or near to the tunnel portals, from the M5 East, Lane Cove and Cross City the reasons for this include: tunnels that will enable future tunnel projects • Fully uses the piston effect of traffic pushing to have an efficient ventilation system that delivers air through the tunnel and avoids the use of a good user experience: additional energy to pull air though a service tunnel to a remote stack location. Minimising the gradient of the tunnel • The stack can be built into the cut and The M5 East has a gradient of eight per cent at cover structure of the portal and therefore the exit of the westbound tunnel. The increase an additional building for ventilation is not in gradient resulted from a late design change to required.

Assessor's Summary of Significance: The building of the Sydney Harbour Bridge was a major event in Australia's history, representing a pivotal step in the development of modern Sydney and one of Australia’s most important cities. The bridge is significant as a symbol of the aspirations of the nation, a focus for the optimistic forecast of a better future following the Great Depression. With the construction of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, Australia was felt to have truly joined the modern age, and the bridge was significant in fostering a sense of collective national pride in the achievement.

  • Sydney Harbour Birdge Southern Toll
    Appendix C Consultation strategy and stakeholder correspondence Community and communications plan Sydney Harbour Bridge southern toll plaza precinct upgrade Bridge Approaches Sydney Harbour Bridge Southern toll plaza precinct upgrade Communications plan October 2012 Draft 4 – internal working document __________________________________________________________ 1. Project overview Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) proposes to realign and resurface the traffic lanes on the Bradfield Highway, on the southern approaches to the Sydney Harbour Bridge, (the proposal). The proposal is aimed at simplifying traffic movements and reducing road safety hazards for the quarter of a million people including 27,000 bus passengers who use road transport to cross the Sydney Harbour Bridge daily. The proposal would involve removal of the toll booths from the southern approaches to the Sydney Harbour Bridge where tolling operations have been undertaken since the bridge was opened to traffic in 1932. Electronic tolling became fully operational in 2009, which means the additional road lanes which facilitated manual tolling are no longer required. The proposal would also involve upgrading the traffic management systems to ensure greater efficiencies in traffic management. This proposal has been made possible by a separate project to modernise and relocate the bridge tolling system to a location north of the bridge, which was determined under a separate environmental assessment (RMS, 2012). The proposal presents an opportunity to upgrade and rationalise the southern toll plaza precinct to simplify traffic movement on the bridge, improve operational flexibility, reduce road safety hazards, and to realise cost efficiencies for RMS. Simplifying and rationalising the lanes would also support separate initiatives to improve bus travel-time reliability to Wynyard in the northern Sydney central business district (CBD).

  • Glove Box Guide to Tolling
    Glove Box Guide to Tolling Using a rental car on a toll road Most major rental car companies can provide a tag or arrange a pass when you hire a vehicle. If you need to arrange a pass yourself, be careful to record the vehicle’s correct state of registration as it could be from interstate. What happens if I use a toll road without a tag or pass? If you use a toll road without a tag or pass you will need to arrange payment by contacting a toll provider within 3 days of your first trip. Otherwise you will receive a toll notice requesting toll payment and an administration fee.

  • ENG4111 Preliminary Report
    University of Southern Queensland Faculty of Engineering and Surveying Own Identification of contributing factors for the success of toll roads in Australia under Public Private Partnerships A Dissertation submitted by Mr Luke Diffin In fulfilment of the requirements of Bachelor of Engineering (Civil) October 2015 ABSTRACT In Australia, Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) have been established as a common method for governments to deliver major road infrastructure projects. Success of PPPs has varied when measured against Government, Community, Market and Industry interests. Some projects have failed financially while still having a positive impact on the community. Other projects have failed to reach delivery stage as a result of community objections. The holistic success of PPP toll roads is ultimately determined by the needs of major project participants being satisfied in an unbiased equilibrium manner. PPP toll roads delivered in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne have had varying degrees of financial success, however there are other vitally important factors to be considered. Tollways directly contribute to travel time savings, vehicle operating cost savings, reduced accidents and vehicle emissions and can make a contribution to the overall economic performance of a city. Therefore these pieces of infrastructure contribute to society as a whole and not just the investors who provide capital for the projects. Even with recent financial failings of PPP toll roads, Governments within Australia are still actively pursuing the PPP model to deliver road infrastructure. Lessons must be learnt from past failures to ensure the successful delivery and operation of future projects. Overall success will be a result of finding a balance between the needs of Government, Private Sector and Society.
