New Clearways to Help Get Motorists Moving Around Sydney Olympic Park

Duncan Gay Minister for Roads, Maritime and Freight Leader of the Government Legislative Council MEDIA RELEASE Monday, 11 April 2016 NEW CLEARWAYS TO HELP GET MOTORISTS MOVING AROUND SYDNEY OLYMPIC PARK Minister for Roads Duncan Gay today announced new weekend and extended weekday clearways have been installed on Centenary Drive, Homebush Bay Drive and a section of Concord Road between Strathfield and Rhodes. “The NSW Government is taking action to reduce congestion and is pushing ahead with our $121 million Clearways Strategy to get people moving freely on some of Sydney’s busiest roads,” Mr Gay said. “With congestion currently costing Sydney around $5.1 billion each year, the NSW Government is committed to maximising the use of existing road space and delivering travel time savings for motorists. “We’re not just building long-term congestion busting projects such as WestConnex and NorthConnex – we’re also providing immediate relief on busy roads such as Victoria Road, Lane Cove Road, the Princes Highway, Anzac Parade and now Centenary Drive, Homebush Bay Drive and a section of Concord Road.” The new clearway is along a nine kilometre route starting at Centenary Drive from the Hume Highway to the M4 Motorway, Homebush Bay Drive from the M4 Motorway to Concord Road and the section of Concord Road from Homebush Bay Drive to Ryde Bridge. “This new length of clearway adds to other recently installed clearways and means there is 19 kilometres of road where people cannot park or stop from Strathfield to Pymble – a huge stretch of congestion relief for motorists,” Mr Gay said. The clearway hours will be extended to 6am to 7pm on weekdays and from 9am to 6pm on weekends. No Stopping and No Parking restrictions will continue to operate outside these clearway times. Any vehicles parked in the clearways will risk being fined and towed. MEDIA: Vanessa Juresic | 0419 618 081 .

Oral history has been described as "a picture of the past in people's own words". It reveals what you often won't find in the files and the history books - the facts and the real reasons things happened. It is told by the people who were there - those who were involved, who made it happen, who were affected - in the colour, passion and inflection of their own voices. Oral history accounts can also tell about relationships, perceptions, social and political climates, all of which are part of life and influence our actions and those of others. It often reveals the unsung heroes, the names of those actually responsible for innovations and important changes. So, oral history provides a counterbalance to the formal written record by providing the personal, intimate, human and social account of events and why they happened. The RTA Environment and Community Policy Branch established an Oral History Program in 1997, to investigate various topics of historical interest.

Minister Pavey
Question 1 Mr Kanofski, you made mention of the fact that the claim is now in arbitration following the determination by the expert. When did the expert make the determination? Question 2 Thank you Mr Kanofski; I understand what you are saying. The point, broadly speaking, is the expert has determined that as a result—the way it has been termed is unforeseen planning approval changes—an additional liability is now owed and there is now a dispute as to the exact quantum of liability. That is probably a fair characterisation. When do you expect this to go to arbitration? Answer I am advised: (1) - (2) This is a matter for the Minister for Western Sydney, Minister for WestConnex and Minister for Sport. Question 3 What other claims have been presented through the linked claims regime that we have just gone through? Perhaps Mr Kanofski might be able to help us there as well. The linked claims regime. Mrs MELINDA PAVEY: —my portfolio areas? Mr KANOFSKI: I would have to take the question on notice. The Hon. DANIEL MOOKHEY: Is it more than one or is this the only claim that we are currently— Mr KANOFSKI: I think I have already taken the question on notice. Answer I am advised: The management of contract claims and variations are a standard part of any large scale infrastructure project and risk allowances are factored into the overall budget. The nature and quantum of claims are commercially sensitive and the subject of negotiation with third parties. Question 4 How many legal dollars have been spent by RMS in defending the claim made by the contractor? Mr KANOFSKI: I take that question on notice.
