James Ruse Drive Upgrade Stage 2 To the householder & business operator AUGUST 2013 Dear resident/business operator, RE: James Ruse Drive, Rosehill to Clyde – Night work starting Sunday 1 September 2013 Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) is continuing work to improve the flow of traffic on James Ruse Drive from Rosehill to Clyde. This project is part of the NSW Government’s $246 million Pinch Point Program which aims to reduce delays, manage congestion and maintain travel times on Sydney’s main roads during week day peak periods. More information on the James Ruse Drive project can be found at www.rms.nsw.gov.au/roadprojects search ‘James Ruse Drive’. The first stage of work is completed. It involved extending right turn lanes at James Ruse Drive southbound to Parramatta Road and southbound to Prospect Street. The last stage of work will start on Sunday 1 September 2013 and be completed in June 2014, weather permitting. Work includes: • Closing the central median to prevent right turns into and out of Hope Street and the Rosehill Racecourse access opposite Hope Street. • Providing dedicated left turn lanes on James Ruse Drive southbound to Grand Avenue and northbound to Hassall Street. • Providing an extended right turn lane on James Ruse Drive northbound into Grand Avenue. • Improving corner kerbs to facilitate truck turns. • Building and improving pedestrian crossing and access facilities into the racecourse. Investigations have shown that the proposed third right turn lane from Hassall Street eastbound to James Ruse Drive is not possible due to constraints identified during the detailed design. Due to heavy traffic volumes during daytime, most of this work will be done at night, Sunday to Friday, from 8pm to 5am. Minor work will take place during the day from Monday to Friday 7am to 5pm. The site compound for this project is located at the Arthur Street Granville M4 viaduct underpass. There will be noise associated with this work, however every effort will be made to minimise the impact of noise on nearby businesses and residents. Please allow extra journey time as delays may occur while work is carried out. The section of road adjacent to the work area will be partially closed during night working hours to ensure road worker and road user safety. Detours are not required. During this work motorists are asked to follow the signs, including reduced speed limits, and to follow the direction of traffic controllers. Up to date information regarding this work, including any date changes, will be displayed on electronic message signs in the area. RMS apologises for any inconvenience this work may cause and appreciate the patience of motorists. For more information on this project, please contact me on (02) 9794 4735 or email [email protected].

Yours faithfully, Simon Buddhivijaya | Project Engineer Roads and Maritime Services .

  • Installation of New and Extended Clearways on Windsor Road And
    Installation of new and extended clearways on Windsor Road and Church Street from Baulkham Hills to Parramatta Roads and Maritime Services | January 2018 The NSW Government is funding this project as part of its $121 million Clearways Program, which aims to reduce congestion and delays on Sydney’s roads. Roads and Maritime Services is installing new Clearways on Windsor Road and Church Street, Baulkham weekend and extended weekday clearways on Hills to Parramatta Windsor Road and Church Street from Old Northern Road, Baulkham Hills to Victoria Road, Parramatta in February 2018. We have included a map to show the location of the new clearways. Changes to the clearways will be operational from Monday 26 February 2018. Any vehicles parked in the clearways on or after these dates will risk being fined and towed. The new weekend and extended weekday clearway hours on Windsor Road are shown on the map. The new clearways will replace the existing ‘No Stopping’ and ‘No Parking’ restrictions on Church Street, between James Ruse Drive and Victoria Road, and the existing bus lanes on Church Street will continue to operate with no changes. What is a clearway? A clearway is a section of road where stopping and parking is not allowed during the times shown on the clearway sign. Clearways are put on key arterial roads where traffic is often heavy and congested. They help keep vehicles moving by making all lanes available to motorists. The only exception is the stopping of buses and taxis dropping off or picking up passengers as well as emergency vehicles.

  • Initial Project Submissions
    M4 Extension M4 PART 3: INITIAL PROJECT SUBMISSIONS M4 Extension NSW GOVERNMENT SUBMISSION TO INFRASTRUCTURE AUSTRALIA TEMPLATE FOR SUMMARIES OF FURTHER PRIORITY PROJECTS JULY 2010 Project Summary (2 pages, excluding attachments) Initiative Name: M4 Extension Location (State/Region(or City)/ Locality): Sydney, NSW Name of Proponent Entity: Roads and Traffic Authority of NSW Contact (Name, Position, phone/e-mail): Paul Goldsmith General Manager, Motorway Projects Phone: 8588 5710 or 0413 368 241 [email protected] Project Description: • Provide a description of the initiative and the capability it will provide. The description needs to provide a concise, but clear description of the initiative’s scope. (approx 3 paragraphs) A motorway connection, mainly in tunnel, from the eastern end of the Western Freeway (M4) at North Strathfield to the western outskirts of the Sydney CBD and the road network near Sydney Airport. It would link M4 to the eastern section of the Sydney Orbital via the Cross City Tunnel and Sydney Harbour Bridge. The eastern section of the M4 (east of Parramatta) would be widened/upgraded. A twin tube tunnel is proposed from North Strathfield to just south of Campbell Road at St Peters with connections to the City West Link at Lilyfield/Rozelle and Parramatta Road/Broadway at Glebe/ Chippendale. A bus only connection at Parramatta Road, Haberfield is also possible. A further tunnel is proposed to connect Victoria Road near Gladesville Bridge to the main tunnel in the Leichhardt area. There is a proposed surface motorway link from just south of Campbell Road to the road network around Sydney Airport probably connecting to Canal Road and Qantas Drive (the latter subject to M5 East Expansion planning and Sydney Airport Corp Ltd agreement) with a potential link to M5 at Arncliffe.

These DRAFTwere: DRAFT DRAFT 1. Road traffic data for western Sydney sector arterials: Great Western Highway and M4 Motorway 1985 – 1995 2. Rail ticketing data and passenger journey estimates for the Western Sydney Rail Line 1985 – 1995 These have now been combined and are presented here as part of an ongoing series of case studies in induced traffic growth from the Sydney Metropolitan Region. In the first, report which focussed on road traffic volumes, an error was made. The location points of road traffic counting stations were incorrect. Although this error does not affect the general conclusions, details of some of the analysis presented in this version are different to that presented in the original papers listed above. Some data additions have also been made, and so the accompanying commentary has been expanded. Acknowledgements During the collation of this data Mr Barry Armstrong from the NSW Roads & Traffic Authority provided invaluable information on road data collection methods as well as problems with data integrity.
