  • Submission Cover Sheets
    Submission Cover Sheet North East Link Project EES IAC 402 Request to be heard?: No, but please email me th Full Name: Phil Turner Organisation: Maroondah City Council Affected property: Attachment 1: Maroondah_Coun Attachment 2: Maroondah_Coun Attachment 3: Comments: To the North East Link Inquiry & Advisory Committee (IAC) Maroondah Council provides the following submission to the IAC, in relation to the EES for the North East Link project. While Council formally supports the objectives of the NEL project, I advise that the support of Maroondah Council has been conditional on appropriate traffic considerations being made with regard to the impact of the project on the Eastlink tunnels, the Ringwood Bypass and by extension the Ringwood Metropolitan Activity Centre. Council previously commissioned a review by O’Brien Traffic that considered the project in the context of the tunnels and impacts on Ringwood, and it was determined that without ancillary works to take traffic pressure off the Eastlink tunnels and the Ringwood Bypass, the project would potentially fail and have a major detrimental impact on the viability of the Ringwood Metropolitan Activity Centre. The O’Brien Traffic report attached to this submission details the basis for those concerns. Council’s concerns were previously forwarded to NELA and Council officers have met with NELA officers on these matters, however, to date Council has not received an appropriate response that addresses these concerns, including within the ESS. In support of this submission, the following documents have also been uploaded: o A submission letter signed by Council’s Mayor Rob Steane documenting the history of Council’s dealings regarding NEL, and outlining Council’s concerns current with the project; o Council Report September 2018; o O’Brien Traffic Review dated 12 September 2017; o Council letter to NELA (26 February 2018) and NELA response (14 March 2018); o Correspondence from Council on Bypass concerns (including technical reports); and o Minutes from MCC / NELA meetings 6 April 2018 and 30 April 2018.

  • Vicroads Will Con Nue Its Prac Ce of Consul Ng with Communi Es and Service Delivery Partners Whenever Changes Are Proposed to Th
    2/23/2021 Parliament of Victoria Question: 167 QUESTION ON NOTICE — Mr Crisp to ask the Attorney-General — With reference to Statutory Declarations: (1) Why is the operator of a Post Office unable to witness Victorian Statutory Declarations, given that the Commonwealth accepts the authority of a Post Office operator to witness a Statutory Declaration. (2) What is the final jurisdiction when authorising a Statutory Declaration. Answer: I am advised that: (1) The current list of persons authorised to witness statutory declarations under Victorian legislation differs from that under Commonwealth law. My department is currently developing options for modernising the law relating to statutory declarations in Victoria, including witnessing requirements. (2) The Victorian statutory declaration requirements only apply to statutory declarations required or permitted under Victorian law. Operators of post offices in Victoria are still authorised to witness Commonwealth statutory declarations (that is, statutory declarations required or permitted under Commonwealth law). THE HON MARTIN PAKULA MP Attorney General Attachments: No Attachments Answer Published Date: 25/05/2015 Question: 168 QUESTION ON NOTICE — Mr Crisp to ask the Minister for Roads and Road Safety — Will the Minister instruct VicRoads to undertake formal reviews that incorporate rural and remote community consultation in order to protect necessary services centres throughout Victoria. Answer: I am informed that, as at the date the queson was raised: VicRoads delivers its registraon and licensing services across Victoria through a network of 39 service centres and 90 agencies. It also operates two large call centres - one in regional Victoria. These arrangements ensure that VicRoads provides accessible services to all Victorians including those in rural communies.

  • Chandler Highway Bridge Duplication
    Council Meeting Agenda 16/11/15 10 Chandler Highway Bridge Duplication Abstract The Victorian Government confirmed the allocation of $110 million in the 2015-2016 Victorian budget for the Chandler Highway Bridge upgrade project. The VicRoads project team has developed four road and bridge alignment options west or east of the existing Chandler Highway Bridge, namely: 1. West alignment - six lanes. 2. East alignment - six lanes. 3. West alignment - four lanes. 4. East alignment - four lanes. VicRoads has publically stated that the west alignment, six lanes option is their preferred option. With all options, the existing Chandler Highway Bridge is to be retained and repurposed as a shared path. From a review of the available documentation and plans, the west alignment options provide a greater benefit to the City of Boroondara than the east alignment options in that: - No land is required in excess of the existing Crown land set aside for road purposes. - The Guide Dogs Victoria facility is not impacted in terms of land required. - Willsmere Chandler Park and associated high value vegetation is not impacted. - The location of the shared path on the east side of Chandler Highway from the Yarra River to Heidelberg Road is considered to be a safer outcome for path users. The traffic impacts of the options presented are currently unknown, but are expected to be very similar for the two proposed alignments. The traffic treatments will be the same, including the signalisation of the Yarra Boulevard/Chandler Highway/Guides Dog Victoria facility and the removal of the existing two stage pedestrian operated signals located to the south of Yarra Boulevard.

  • Building Suburban Rail Loop
    FACT SHEET BUILDING SUBURBAN RAIL LOOP The Andrews Labor Government will get on with the Suburban Rail Loop – the biggest transport project in Australian history that will connect our suburbs and our state. Our transport system was built a century ago – designed to get people from their homes to jobs in Melbourne’s CBD. But as we’ve grown, our state has changed. Melbourne’s suburbs have expanded, and jobs and services have decentralised to centres across Melbourne’s middle and outer suburbs. As we continue to grow, demand on the transport network in and out of the CBD will continue to fill our roads and our trains. To keep up with our growing population, create more jobs, help families get where they need to be, and make Melbourne a truly world-class city, our transport system needs overhauling. The Suburban Rail Loop will transform how people move around Melbourne – connecting people directly to jobs, hospitals, universities, and the airport without having to travel in to the CBD. The underground train network will circle Melbourne’s suburbs from Cheltenham to Melbourne Airport, with 12 new underground stations connecting our southern, eastern, and northern suburbs. From the Airport, Labor’s new Melbourne Airport Rail Link will connect it to Sunshine, with the loop completed via a new connection to the Werribee line. It will be the biggest transport project in Australian history, giving Melbourne a modern orbital public transport network the likes of London, New York, and Paris. In just four years, Labor has delivered the big road and rail projects our state needs for today.
