Paul reminded those present of two upcoming rides, the first ride to Kurrajong on Sat 6th, for morning tea at the café opposite the Garden centre.

Gordon Mitchell advised other rides as per Calendar, Gordon asked members who are prepared to be contacted for help in the event of another member breaking down on a ride to contact him for inclusion of contact details on a published list or enter the contact details on the website.

    Berowra Waters Ferry Ramp Upgrade Review of Environmental Factors Roads and Maritime Services | July 2019 BLANK PAGE Berowra Waters Ferry Ramp Upgrade Review of Environmental Factors Roads and Maritime Services | July 2019 Prepared by NGH Environmental, Sure Environmental and Roads and Maritime Services Copyright: The concepts and information contained in this document are the property of NSW Roads and Maritime Services. Use or copying of this document in whole or in part without the written permission of NSW Roads and Maritime Services constitutes an infringement of copyright. Document controls Approval and authorisation Title Berowra Waters Ferry Ramp Upgrade review of environmental factors Accepted on behalf of NSW Joshua Lewis Roads and Maritime Services Project Manager by: Signed: Dated: Executive summary The proposal The car ferry at Berowra Waters provides access between Berowra, Berowra Waters and Berrilee, in the far northern suburbs of Sydney. It is maintained and operated by Roads and Maritime Services NSW (Roads and Maritime). Roads and Maritime proposes to upgrade the ferry ramps at Berowra Waters with precast concrete panels for the sections below the tide level and poured in situ ramp sections above the high water mark. Need for the proposal The proposal is required to maintain a safe ingress and egress for pedestrians and vehicles approaching the ferry. Maintenance inspections indicate the existing ferry ramps are showing signs of degradation that could pose a safety hazard for pedestrians and vehicles. Without a safe operating ferry at Berowra Waters motorist travelling between Berrilee and Berowra would be required to detour via Galston, a detour of about 19 kilometres.

  • 20Th Anniversary Edition 4, 2010
    20th Anniversary Edition 4, 2010 A REVIEW OF THE CLUB YEAR . The year has been significant in terms of the Committee’s achievements, much of which goes unnoticed by the membership. There have been changes to increase the efficiency of the Committee’s administrative procedures and restructure of some Committee duties to achieve a better distribution of workloads. The year was also remarkable for the abundance of major events noted below; 20TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE MX5 & CHRISTMAS PARTY. In a variation from normal practice, this event was conducted as a dinner dance with entertainment at St. George the Motor Boat Club on the shores of Kogarah Bay. Although bookings were slow coming in, the late surge ensured that the evening was an overwhelming success. NATMEET IX – McLAREN VALE, SOUTH AUSTRALIA, EASTER 2010. Around 30 of our members travelled to South Australia to participate in this event which is hosted at Easter in alternate years on a rotating basis by the State MX5 Car Clubs. We really enjoyed the camaraderie, the great MX5 driving, the Willunga Hill Climb, the Funkhana as well as the wining and dining in one of Australia’s premier wine regions. New South Wales did not win the State trophy this year, but shone in the hill climb with particular reference to Phil Ashton’s achievements. Full results were published in Club Torque. NATMEET 10 –EASTER 2012 - CANBERRA We will host the next national event in the National Capital. A sub-committee under the chairmanship of Vice President Peter Feutrill and comprising a group of Sydney and Canberra based members who attended the McLaren Vale event are heavily engaged in planning.
