Joint Submission for the Reclassification of MR 101 to State Road Joint Submission for the reclassification of MR 101 to State Road Dungog Shire Council Great Lakes Council Maitland City Council Background This proposal is a joint proposal from Dungog Council, Maitland City Council and Great Lakes Council for the reclassification of MR 101 to State Road for its full length from Maitland to Stroud via Dungog. This proposal could be considered as an alternative route for either the Pacific Highway or New England Highway in the event that these lower portions were untrafficable. It in no way, however, duplicates these routes as it services its own unique population, social, tourist and economic regions. This proposal has the full support of the three local government areas in which it traverses. Supporting evidence for MR101 to be upgraded to a State Road The RTA Road Classification guideline advises that a road may be a State Road if its primary function meets one of three criteria. This joint submission proposes that reclassification of MR 101 from Maitland to Stroud via Dungog to a State Road meets at least two of the three criteria of the Road Classification Guidelines. CRITERIA 2B Links these major NSW towns with each other where there is significant interaction. y Major towns population generally in the range 10,000 to 100,000 but may include slightly smaller centres which provide a wide range of commercial, community and administrative functions to an extensive hinterland and y Primary route exhibiting best operational features and an intention to manage as the major route, and y Significant economic and social interaction exhibited: y Generally minimum AADT greater than 1000, or at least greater than 500 and growing at a faster rate than on surrounding roads. y May include cross border links to interstate major centres. The relevant points are addressed as follows: • Major towns population generally in the range 10,000 to 100,000 but may include slightly smaller centres which provide a wide range of commercial The proposed route for reclassification includes MR 101 from Maitland to Stroud via Dungog. This route links the city of Maitland (pop. 55,000) with the shire of Dungog (pop. 10,000), and further links the shire of Gloucester (pop. 4,600) via the Bucketts Way an already designated ‘Road of National Importance’ (RONI) and the townships of Stroud. This route further provides a connection to the Thurderbolts way linking the communities of the Great Lakes, Dungog and Gloucester shires with regional centers at Armidale. • Significant economic and social interaction exhibited The route provides the primary link between Gloucester, Stroud, Dungog and Maitland, and as such is the main conduit for economic activity in the local government areas of Dungog and Gloucester. Economic activity in these areas includes timber cutting and transport of timber, the transport of coal and quarry products and the primary transport link for agricultural industries such as dairying, beef cattle and poultry. Further, the route links significant state government owned and operated facilities including RIC Quarry at Martins Creek, Tocal Agricultural College, a number of NSW State Forests and National Parks including the Barrington Tops National Park and Chichester and Lostock Dams owned by Hunter Water and State Water respectively. The route is also a significant route for tourism serving both day trippers and longer term tourists visiting the area, primarily visiting such attractions as the Barrington Tops National Park and the Chichester and Lostock Dams. The state government has recently relocated the Department of Mineral Resources and the Police Infringement Processing Bureau to the City of Maitland. There has been further major economic development in the area stimulating additional growth in the region including, major expansion to the Greenhills Shopping center ($45 million), the Tile manufacturing facility at Rutherford ($13 million) and a proposal to relocate Caterpillar regional headquarters in Rutherford ($14 million). • Generally minimum AADT greater than 1000, or at least greater than 500 and growing at a faster rate than on surrounding roads. The AADT on the northern section of MR 101 north of Dungog is 400 increasing to approximately 2300 at the local government boundary between Dungog and Maitland and increasing further to 16,000 near Lorn at the southern section of this road. Within the town centre of Dungog, the traffic counts are approximately 1500 – 2000 vehicles per day. Clearly the traffic volumes on this road exceed 1000 AADT for the majority of its length. The high population and development pressures in conjunction with rising property costs in Sydney and also in Newcastle have seen high growth rates in the City of Maitland and Dungog LGA’s with Dungog preparing a new Local Environmental Plan in 2005 to address the significant growth rates in the shire. In 2004 Maitland had the largest population growth of any inland NSW city. Criteria 3 Links major regions throughout the State with each other. • Provides a long distance connection between regions not already provided for in the network defined by the above criteria or “missing links” that complete long distance connections between the network already defined by the above and • Sustains a high flow of general traffic (generally 500 AADT) over long distances (100km) or • Significant long distance freight or coach route The Dungog and Gloucester LGAs are the “missing link”. There is no State (or Federal) Road servicing these shires at all as shown by Figure 1 below. Figure 1 - Showing lack of State Road network between Pacific, Oxley and New England Highways A State road will link Maitland to Bucketts Way via Dungog and connect a number of Regional Roads from Clarence Town and Gresford to enhance the State Road network. The regions that will be serviced by this road are bounded to the East by the Pacific Highway and the west by the New England Highway north of Hexham. State Roads servicing the lower North Coast between the New England highway and the Pacific Highway are non existent between the confluence of these two major highways at Hexham and the Oxley Highway (approximately 100 km north of Hexham). This lack of linkage between NSW’s two busiest highways and the two major links to Queensland results in a void of transport connections in the Dungog and Gloucester area and limits transport between these two centers to their closest regional centers. • Sustains a high flow of general traffic (generally 500 AADT) over long distances (100km) or The present Regional Road has an AADT of 2000 to 16000 vehicles in the southern portion of the Dungog shire through to Maitland and is seeing a continuing increase in both light and heavy traffic. The distance of the total route from Maitland to the Bucketts Way is in the order of 80 km. The AADT in the Northern section of the route is in the order of 400 vehicles per day. The proportion of heavy vehicles from the RIC quarry and delivering freight, varying from livestock, timber, fertilizers, farm machinery building products etc on this road was recorded at 18% averaged over a 4 week period in 2004! All household and industry supplies must come by road transport because there is no alternative means of freight service. This road is an essential link between the RIC Quarry at Martins Creek and the Bucketts Way and New England Highway in support of railways, roads and industry in the Hunter Region. In order to meet the continuing growth in demand, RIC has increased its output from 373,550 tonnes in 1993/94 to 772,983 tonnes in 2003/04 equivalent to approximately 30,000 loaded truck movements annually. In 1986 approximately 80% of the output from this quarry was transported by rail, but now this situation has been reversed in favour of road transport. • Significant long distance freight or coach route Dungog is situated on the Northern Rail line and a State Road through Dungog will provide a link to the rail network. This rail network is an important transport link for both passenger and freight services.

  • Infrastructure Funding Performance Monitor
    UDIA NSW | 2020 Infrastructure Funding Performance Monitor $2.7 billion is currently held as a restricted asset by Councils for the delivery of infrastructure • The current total balance of contributions held across the Greater Sydney megaregion is $2.7 billion, with the average amount held by a Council sitting at $56 million. • Every year new housing contributes almost $900 million to local infrastructure, Executive roads, stormwater, open space and community facilities across the Greater Sydney megaregion through the infrastructure charging framework. It is expected Summary that this infrastructure is built with the funds that are paid. • However, only 64% of the contributions that are paid for were spent in the last three years. Average Total Expenditure Total Income Balance E/I ($’000) ($’000) ($’000) Total 0.64 $650,679 $876,767 $2,653,316 Contributions Under a s7.11 0.85 $564,670 $711,912 $2,330,289 or s7.12 Under a s7.4 0.62 $41,640 $124,180 $259,501 The amount of unspent funding has increased over the past three years • Since FY16 total unspent contributions have increased 33% from $1.98 billion to over $2.65 billion.

If necessary, the State Government should step-in to support Councils get infrastructure on the ground. Increased funding does not correlate to increased infrastructure delivery • The scatter graphs here show an extremely weak relationship between cash held and expenditure ratios.

  • M1 Pacific Motorway Extension to Raymond Terrace
    M1 Pacific Motorway extension to Raymond Terrace Project update – Environmental Impact Statement July 2021 You are invited to make a submission on the M1 Pacific Motorway extension to Raymond Terrace Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The Australian and NSW governments have committed $2 billion to deliver the M1 Pacific Motorway extension to Raymond Terrace and Hexham Straight projects. The extension would boost the regional economy and improve connectivity, road transport eciency and safety for local and interstate motorists. The project addresses a key national motorway ‘missing link’ between Sydney and Brisbane as the existing M1 Pacific Motorway, New England Highway and Pacific Highway carry some of the highest trac volumes across the Hunter. Better movement of Once complete, the extension would remove up to 25,000 vehicles a day from key congestion and freight merge points along this corridor and would help keep freight, commuters and tourists moving. The project includes 15 kilometres of dual carriageway and provides motorway access from the existing road network from four new Saving motorists interchanges at Black Hill, Tarro, Tomago and up to Raymond Terrace. 9 minutes during peak time The project also includes a 2.6 kilometre viaduct over the Hunter River and floodplain, the Main North Rail Line, and the New England Highway. It would also provide new bridge crossings over Bypass up to local waterways at Tarro and Raymond Terrace, and an overpass for Masonite Road at Heatherbrae. 5 trac lights Key benefits On opening, the M1 Pacific Motorway extension to Raymond Terrace would save motorists between seven and nine minutes of travel time during peak periods, bypass up to five sets of trac lights and reduce trac demand on existing key routes across the road The key benefits of the proposed extension network.

All roads may lead to Rome, but please do not forget that on Saturday, October 17, when the good people of Bulga invite you to visit their own part of our national thor- oughfare system (Inlet Road, to be exact) for not one, but two momentous walks down memory lane. To begin with, it’s about 200 years since that remarkable figure of colonial exploration, John Howe, capped his opening of the Patrick Plains with the first (white) sighting of the idyllic paradise our First Peoples knew as Bulga. And never let us forget that, without the unique bushcraft and calm perseverance of the native Australians John Howe recruited for his squad, our beautiful patch may have waited much longer to become recognised on the map of pre-Federation New South Wales. The second stanza on the playlist for October is meant to be an equally whole- hearted tribute to our forebears—but perhaps a little more restrained and intro- spective than our Bulga commemoration: we’re remembering the dedication of that consecrated gateway to the fallen, the War Memorial Gates at the Recreation Ground.
