  • Item 6.1 Tasman Highway Memorial Bridge
    P IMAGE FROM DENTON CORKER MARSHALL CITY OF HOBART TASMAN HIGHWAY MEMORIAL BRIDGE RESULTS FROM STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATIONS ON THE PRELIMINARY CONCEPT DESIGN JANUARY 2017 1 B ACKGROUND The Queens Domain Master Plan 2013, endorsed by Council, identified access to the park from the city, surrounding suburbs and foreshore as a major constraint to community use and enjoyment of the park. This impediment has occurred incrementally through the development of the current system of highways, which now surround the majority of the Domain. The Master Plan recommends the development of six new pedestrian/shared use bridges, including one linking the Cenotaph to the Soldiers Memorial Avenue on the Domain. The Australian Government announced on 19 April 2015 that it would provide $8 million from the ANZAC Centenary Public Fund for the development of a bridge to connect the Cenotaph/Regatta Grounds precinct with the rest of the Queens Domain. The State Government will provide funding to the Council for the project and will be reimbursed by the ANZAC Public Fund/Australian Government. The development of the bridge has been listed by the City of Hobart as an Inner City Action Project (ICAP). The City of Hobart Project Brief requires that the project must: link the Hobart War Memorial Cenotaph across the Tasman Highway to the Soldiers Memorial Avenue on the Queens Domain; link from the vicinity of the Doone Kennedy Hobart Aquatic Centre to ensure the recreational facilities within the Queens Domain are beneficially connected to each other and to the City via the proposed Brooker All Abilities Access Bridge connecting the Domain to the City at Bathurst Street; provide an all abilities connection for the proposed bridge to the Intercity Cycleway is essential; and provide an all abilities access way linking the existing Intercity Cycleway through to a point of connection near the Davey Street and Hunter Street intersection as requested by the Macquarie Point Development Corporation.

  • Seniors Card Directory 2017-2018
    Seniors Card Directory 2017-2018 www.seniors.tas.gov.au 1300 13 55 13 Premier’s Message It gives me great pleasure to present the 2017-2018 edition of the Tasmanian Seniors Card Directory. This Directory aims to encourage older Tasmanians who are retired or semi- retired to continue to remain active, have new experiences and engage with their local community by accessing hundreds of discounts and offers from participating businesses. 2017 will mark the 23rd year since the Seniors Card Program began in Tasmania and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the businesses that have voluntarily joined the Program to support Tasmanian Seniors Card holders. The Tasmanian Government is proud to be in partnership with so many businesses that have either re-registered or joined the Program for the first time. Their commitment has enabled the Program to go from strength to strength, with just over 102,000 active Card holders and over 700 businesses registered. These partnerships embrace our over-60 population and foster opportunities for being active at any age. To maximise your spending power don’t forget to use your card as often as you can and keep a copy of the Directory handy so you can find that local Business Partner. You can also check for updates online at www.seniors.tas.gov.au or on the Seniors Card Program Facebook page. I hope you find the new Seniors Card Directory a valuable resource, and remember to look for the ‘Seniors Card welcome here’ logo when you are out and about.

Due to the unusual circumstances this year, Nationals has been postponed from January until April 2021 and is now only just over 3 months away! As a result, the WA UWH committee has decided to suspend the usual Nationals procedures and by- laws associated with WA state teams for Nationals 2021 as they cannot be consistently enforced due to the shortened timeframes. In place of the normal procedures, the WA Games Commissioner, Josh Mackenzie, will be overseeing the selection and management process of the 2021 WA State Teams with the assistance of the WA UWH Executive Committee. Once the Junior and Senior Team Managers are appointed, they will manage the teams as usual. The normal procedures will be followed as closely as possible and any changes will be made with fairness and practicality in mind. Given the unique situation with COVID, it is important you are all aware that there is a risk the event could be cancelled or there may be government enforced travel restrictions which may affect your participation in the competition.
