  • Arcure Continues Its International Expansion by Equipping the Westconnex Motorway, Mega-Construction Site in Sydney
    Paris, the 11th of October 2019 Arcure continues its international expansion by equipping the WestConnex Motorway, mega-construction site in Sydney Specializing in artificial intelligence (AI) applied to image processing in the industrial world, Arcure has been selected by the consortium Lendlease Samsung Bouygues Joint Venture (LSBJV) to equip machines working on the WestConnex M4-M5 Link project in Sydney with Blaxtair®, the reference solution for pedestrian protection around industrial vehicles. « WestConnex is one of the largest road infrastructure projects in Australia. Having equipped industrial sites in the Greater Paris area and also supplied Blaxtair® pedestrian detection systems for mobile plant on parts of the London underground expansion project, we are proud to work on the safety element of this huge undertaking. This new collaboration on an infrastructure operation of this size testifies to the relevance of the Blaxtair® solution and has spurred us to actively seek further international projects and opportunities », Franck Gayraud, CEO and co-founder of Arcure. Blaxtair® is the result of a collaboration between Arcure and the CEA's (note to editors: in France, the CEA is the Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission) research laboratories and is considered the industry-leading, embedded detection system. This innovative 3D camera detects obstacles around mobile plant and/or materials handling equipment. Thanks to AI, Blaxtair® differentiates between pedestrians in the designated detection zone and objects/obstacles, thus helping to avoid pedestrian collisions. Its unique technology will warn a driver in case of danger, avoiding unnecessary alarms and untimely stops. The adaptability and responsiveness offered by the Blaxtair® system allows mobile plant to be used with minimal risk to pedestrians on industrial sites with the most demanding operating conditions.

  • Westconnex M4-M5 Link State Significant Infrastructure Application Report January 2016
    WestConnex M4-M5 Link State significant infrastructure application report January 2016 RMS 15.666 ISBN 978-1-925421-57-6 BLANK PAGE Executive summary Introduction and need Roads and Maritime Services (Roads and Maritime) propose to construct and operate the M4-M5 Link (the project); which would comprise a new, tolled multi-lane road link between the proposed M4 East at Haberfield and the proposed New M5 at St Peters. The project would also include interchanges at Rozelle and Camperdown. The project is one component of the WestConnex program of works. WestConnex is a 33 kilometre motorway that is intended to link Sydney’s west with the airport and the Port Botany precinct. The WestConnex program of works is proposed to be delivered as a series of projects, each subject to a stand- alone planning assessment and approvals process in accordance with the requirements of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act) and other relevant legislation. Key components of the project include: • Twin motorway tunnels between the M4 East at Haberfield and the New M5 at St Peters. Each tunnel would be around 9.2 kilometres in length and would be built to accommodate three lanes of traffic. Each tunnel would integrate with tunnel stubs constructed underground as part of the proposed M4 East at the Wattle Street interchange and proposed New M5. • A new road interchange at Rozelle at the disused Rozelle Rail Yard, to provide connections to and from the M4-M5 Link with City West Link, Victoria Road and the Anzac Bridge intersection. • Tunnel stubs to allow for a potential future connection to the Western Harbour Tunnel and Beaches Link (an additional Sydney Harbour Tunnel road crossing) in the vicinity of the Rozelle interchange.

  • I Object to the Westconnex M4-M5 Link Proposals for the Following Reasons
    005201 Name: Attention Director Application Number: SSI 7485 Signature: Infrastructure Projects, Planning Services, Please include my personal information when publishing this submission to your website. Department of Planning and Environment I HAVE NOT mode reportable political donations in the last 2 years. Address: GPO Box 39, Sydney, NSW, 2001 Cr.) Application Name: WestConnex M4-M5 Link Suburb: Ami , Postcode I object to the WestConnex M4-M5 Link proposals for the following reasons: 1. The EIS admits that air pollutants will exceed permitted levels along the Canal Rd used to access the St Peters Interchange because the traffic will be heavier. This is an unacceptable impact which will adversely affect vehicle users because it is known that people in their vehicles are not protected from the air pollution, as well as anyone on foot or cycling in the streets around the interchange. No amelioration is offered. 2. The EIS states that traffic congestion around the St Peters Interchange is expected to be worse after completion of the M5 and the M4-M5 Link particularly in the evening peak hour. The EIS admits that this will have a "moderate negative" impact on the neighbourhood in increasing pollution (also admitted separately) therefore in health impacts, on safety for foot and cycle traffic but also for vehicles and on the local amenity. 3. The traffic around St Peters expected to be heavier because of the increased road access to the new Interchange will adversely affect our community because moving around to our parks and to the shops, to the buses and to the train stations, for pedestrians and cars, will be more difficult.
