Protecting port land and road and rail supply chains from urban enroachment is critical to enable future growth in port-related industries and the economic benefits and jobs that they deliver to our regional NSW communities.

3 THE NEED TO RECOGNISE AND PROTECT FREIGHT CORRIDORS This Plan needs to acknowledge that a broad state-wide network of road and rail funnels through Newcastle. The Plan needs to consider how it will manage urban amenity and networks which are shared between passengers and freight (as outlined on pages 6-8).

KEY RAIL NETWORKS

THE AUSTRALIAN RAIL TRACK CORPORATION (ARTC) HUNTER VALLEY NETWORK

The ARTC Hunter Valley Network consists of more than 1,000 kilometres of track, extending to Parkes via in the Central West of NSW to North Star in the far north of the state. In 2016 the Hunter Valley network hauled around 37 billion gross tonne kilometres, which is equivalent to 132,000 B Triple movements.

The ARTC network has ample capacity for new freight. For example, it offers grain growers from Moree to Newcastle the opportunity to double or triple payloads.

The ARTC network can run heavier, longer grain trains than ever before: • Grain trains: 1,200-1,350m or 70+ wagons long. • Coal trains: 1,800m or 90+ wagons long.

CONNECTIONS TO THE INLAND RAIL

Freight Corridor is an important task to be completed in the next ten years. The Plan notes (P28): “As Greater Newcastle and its catchment grows in population and freight This corridor will link the Main North line between throughput, traffic congestion issues along key Hexham and Fassifern, providing a bypass of the corridors will worsen.

6 FEEDBACK ON THE DRAFT GREATER NEWCASTLE FUTURE TRANSPORT PLAN (CONTINUED)

It is PON’s understanding that the Program includes the following key projects: • The Lower Main North Quad – completing the four-track section between Strathfield and Ryde, to bring a third road into use on the Main North between Strathfield and Thornleigh; • Construction of a third track between Thornleigh to Hornsby to complete the route between Strathfield and Hornsby junctions as a three (or four) track corridor. • Construction of a third road on the 9km long Cowan Bank to add an overtaking lane for passenger trains and provide for faster freight trains on the Cowan Bank through a 1:40 grade for most of its length.

The availability of region. This investment has a flow on benefit across competitively priced office facilities and the skilled other sectors including manufacturing, finance and regional workforce could also entice companies insurance, real estate, transport and warehousing to establish head offices or regional offices in the Hunter region.

The Port and surrounding regions are well placed to accommodate distribution centres to support the cost effective and timely movement of cargo to and from Regional NSW.

Currently, all large scale container freight is handled through Port Botany, with imported goods unpacked in Sydney. A large portion is trucked through busy metropolitan roads to reach cargo delivery destinations throughout regional NSW.

The Port of Newcastle’s close proximity to the Hunter region and major Regional NSW centres and its direct connection to the ARTC’s Hunter Valley rail network provides an opportunity to move more containers on rail, reducing congestion on metropolitan road networks.

THE NSW GOVERNMENT’S HUNTER REGIONAL PLAN 2036

The NSW Government’s Hunter Regional Plan 2036 notes that ‘the Planning & Hunter is strategically situated to leverage proximity to Asia and the Environment region’s growing agricultural, health, education and tourism sectors 2036 to supply developing Asian economies with resources and products’.

The NSW Government notes that ‘the Port of Newcastle will continue to play an important role in the regional economy through the international export of goods and commodities (including coal and grains) from the Hunter and Regional NSW. It is the largest coal exporting port in the world. The Port of Newcastle has diversified its operations over time to respond to changing markets and demands. Hunter The port’s facilities and services will need to remain responsive to Regional changes arising from global demand and national economic policy’. Plan

Hunter Regional Plan 2036 A Actions of the plan include: • 2.1 Promote diversification of operations at the Port of Newcastle and the Newcastle Airport and enhanced connectivity to the Asia-Pacific. • 4.4 Promote freight facilities that leverage the Port of Newcastle and its associated freight transport network. • 4.5 Plan for multimodal freight facilities that support economic development of the region and respond to the location of the proposed Freight Rail Bypass. • 26.3 Protect existing and planned major infrastructure corridors and sites, including inter-regional transport routes like the M1 Pacific Motorway and the railway, port and airports to support their intended functions.
