  • Western Harbour Tunnel & Warringah Freeway Upgrade
    NSW Major Projects NSW Government 30th March, 2020. Dear Sir or Madame, RE: Western Harbour Tunnel & Warringah Freeway Upgrade I am writing in support of Bike North and their submission on the Western Harbour Tunnel & Warringah Freeway Upgrade.i Bicycle NSW has been the peak bicycle advocacy group now in NSW for over forty-three years, and has over 30 affiliated local Bicycle User Groups, including Bike North. Bicycle NSW exists to create a better environment for all bicycle riders and our advocacy is guided by three policy pillars to achieve this namely: Build it for Everyone: cycling infrastructure should be built suitable for all riders, and we say ‘from 8-80’ as a reminder that children through to elders should all be able to use it independently Safe Home: because everyone deserves to arrive home safely and laws, regulation and enforcement need to support this Invest Now for Health: calls for government to recognise the importance of investment in safe cycling to address the rising impact of inactivity on human health Bicycle NSW agrees with and supports the objections of Bike North to the proposal on the basis that: The proposal would entrench private, environmentally damaging transport at the expense of public and active transport The EIS fails to provide a full detailed business case to support this proposal over public transport investment The project fails to include delivery of the North Shore Cycleway as part of the project or at least the section between Naremburn and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. This directly contradicts Sydney’s Cycling Future (NSW Government, Dec 2013) that requires that the ‘needs of people on bike be included throughout the planning of new and upgraded road projects’, and that ‘bicycle facilities be identified and delivered parallel to major transport corridors’.

  • Northconnex: Subsurface Stratum Acquisition
    Proceedings of the 21st Association of Public Authority Surveyors Conference (APAS2016) Leura, New South Wales, Australia, 4-6 April 2016 NorthConnex: Subsurface Stratum Acquisition Kit Panya Roads and Maritime Services [email protected] ABSTRACT NorthConnex is a proposed 9 km tunnel motorway designed to link the M1 Pacific Motorway in Wahroonga to the Hills M2 Motorway in Pennant Hills. The tunnel is part of the NSW Government’s State Infrastructure Strategy forming an essential link in the Sydney Orbital Network and expected to cost $3 billion. In January 2015, NorthConnex received official project approval by the NSW Government. The earliest access date required for tunnel construction was July 2015. The NorthConnex project team engaged the Roads and Maritime Services (RMS) Cadastral Survey Unit for the stratum acquisition of approximately 900 lots. The acquisition was predominantly subsurface, but also included surface land, strata title, and community title acquisition. Between the project approval date and the tunnel access requirements, we had a timeframe of two months to acquire the first 80 lots in the initial stage. This paper outlines how the RMS Cadastral Survey Unit was able to respond, using a plan production and lodgement strategy unique to previous motorways. With Land and Property Information (LPI), we developed the Subsurface Stratum Definition Strategy to allow for the compilation of boundaries for subsurface acquisition plans. Once the strategy was in place, the extent of acquisition was determined from analysis of spatial data and the tunnel model. Compiled plan production, and occasionally field surveys, could then take place to complete the acquisition process.

  • Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway Upgrade - EIS SSI 8863
    25 March 2019 File No: 2020/065301 Naomi Moss Contact Planner Department of Planning, Industry and Environment 4 Parramatta Square 12 Darcy Street Parramatta NSW 2150 Via: NSW Planning Portal Dear Naomi Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway Upgrade - EIS SSI_8863 Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments on the Environmental Impact Statement for the Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway Upgrade State Significant Infrastructure Project. The key points that the City of Sydney wishes to raise are provided in the following pages. Should you wish to speak with a Council officer about the above, please contact Elise Webster, Manager Transport Major Projects on 9265 9333 or at [email protected] Yours sincerely, Graham Jahn AM Director City Planning I Development I Transport 2 Introduction The City of Sydney (the City) has been a long-time critic of WestConnex. This is primarily because this costly motorway project will fail in its primary objective of easing congestion. Urban motorways do not solve congestion; they induce demand for motor vehicle trips and any additional capacity created is quickly filled. This phenomenon applies equally to the Western Harbour Tunnel and Warringah Freeway (the WHT) Project, a component of the WestConnex expansion. The number of vehicles entering the city from the north and the Roselle area is currently limited by the capacity of the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Anzac Bridge. These bridges also accommodate traffic which bypasses the CBD. When six separate bypass lanes are provided as part of the WHT project there will then be additional capacity on the Harbour Bridge and Anzac Bridge to access the CBD by vehicle.

    DISPATCH FROM SYDNEY Transport in the Land of Oz BY JOHN LANDIS 23 A C C E S S NUMBER 30, SPRING 2007 USTRALIA —OR OZ AS IT IS KNOWN COLLOQUIALLY —IS INSTANTLY recognizable to visiting Americans, even those like myself who had never A been there before. As in the US, most of Australia ’s population lives in metropolitan areas within twenty miles of the coast. A majority of Australians live in sub - urban communities, and single-family homes are the dominant housing form. Australia ’s home ownership rate stands at seventy percent, slightly above the US rate. The transportation picture also looks familiar, at least at first glance. GM (through its Holden Division), Ford, and Toyota are Australia ’s biggest auto manufacturers, and four-wheel drives, minivans, and SUVs (known locally as “utes ” and “soft-roaders ”) are popular among suburban households. Urban and suburban traffic congestion is LA-like in its severity, especially in and around Australia ’s two largest cities, Sydney and Melbourne. After years of under-investment, Australia ’s urban transit systems are facing widening revenue shortfalls. In terms of new investments, light rail is popular with local elected officials, while transit professionals generally favor bus rapid transit. Support is also growing for transit-oriented development to combat auto dependence and better coordinate public transportation investments with private land use decisions. Early twentieth-century land use patterns in Australia ’s major East Coast cities — Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane —were shaped by a combination of privately and publicly developed streetcar systems. As a result, the inner ring of older suburban neigh - borhoods in all three cities is compact and walkable.

  • An Investigation of the Causes of Over-Optimistic Patronage Forecasts for Selected Recent Toll Road Projects 8 December 2011
    Revised Final Report Department of Infrastructure and Transport An investigation of the causes of over-optimistic patronage forecasts for selected recent toll road projects 8 December 2011 Executive Summary The Australian Government Department of Infrastructure and Transport is investigating the causes of over-optimistic patronage forecasts with the purpose of identifying potential remedies. This report contributes to that investigation via case studies of selected toll road projects to identify challenges in processes and opportunities for improvements, so that lessons from the past may guide practice in the future. Two major cases CityLink (Melbourne) and Lane Cove Tunnel (Sydney) with two supporting cases Westlink M7 (Sydney) and the Go Between Bridge (Brisbane) were chosen for coverage of geography, timing, physical characteristic and forms of funding. Desktop research supported by interviews with stakeholders covering the spectrum of stakeholders in the road procurement process found: PPP bidding processes for toll roads lead to selection of the most optimistic of optimistic forecasts: Government forecasts, erring on the high side to avoid under-estimating environmental impacts, may set a forecast ‘floor’ Traffic modellers in bid teams produce a ‘low’ forecast above this floor for debt lenders and a ‘high’ estimate of possible returns for those taking equity Equity forecasts are submitted with bids and the highest forecast almost always wins. Four-step models used in most toll road forecasts: Have some intrinsic positive biases when modelling toll road patronage More importantly they provide many opportunities for optimistic selection of parameters Optimism can more easily occur in the absence of data for example about values of time or traffic flow by day of week and month of year; and Estimates of ramp up in traffic after opening may be especially subject to optimism; and/or Deliberate selections to raise forecasts, such has high growth rates for population or the economy, may be applied.

  • ENG4111 Preliminary Report
    University of Southern Queensland Faculty of Engineering and Surveying Own Identification of contributing factors for the success of toll roads in Australia under Public Private Partnerships A Dissertation submitted by Mr Luke Diffin In fulfilment of the requirements of Bachelor of Engineering (Civil) October 2015 ABSTRACT In Australia, Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) have been established as a common method for governments to deliver major road infrastructure projects. Success of PPPs has varied when measured against Government, Community, Market and Industry interests. Some projects have failed financially while still having a positive impact on the community. Other projects have failed to reach delivery stage as a result of community objections. The holistic success of PPP toll roads is ultimately determined by the needs of major project participants being satisfied in an unbiased equilibrium manner. PPP toll roads delivered in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne have had varying degrees of financial success, however there are other vitally important factors to be considered. Tollways directly contribute to travel time savings, vehicle operating cost savings, reduced accidents and vehicle emissions and can make a contribution to the overall economic performance of a city. Therefore these pieces of infrastructure contribute to society as a whole and not just the investors who provide capital for the projects. Even with recent financial failings of PPP toll roads, Governments within Australia are still actively pursuing the PPP model to deliver road infrastructure. Lessons must be learnt from past failures to ensure the successful delivery and operation of future projects. Overall success will be a result of finding a balance between the needs of Government, Private Sector and Society.
