  • Assessment of Transport Corridors 9
    PaRt 3: assessment of tRansPoRt CoRRiDoRs 9. Regional Rail link (west of weRRibee to DeeR PaRk) The proposal for the Regional Rail Link – west of Werribee to Deer Park is being planned in an integrated manner with the changes to Melbourne’s Urban Growth Boundary, the Outer Metropolitan Ring / E6 Transport Corridor and the preservation of grasslands areas in Melbourne’s west. The Regional Rail Link can allow urban growth areas in Melbourne’s west to be served by high-quality public transport infrastructure early on in their development. It is of strategic importance to Victoria in achieving its wider transport planning vision as outlined in The Victorian Transport Plan and urban growth planning as outlined in Melbourne 2030 and Melbourne @ 5 million. 9.1 Understanding the Corridor The Regional Rail Link – west of Werribee to Deer Park is a 30 kilometre long section of up to 50 kilometres of the rail project linking the Melbourne-Geelong railway west of Werribee to Southern Cross Station via the Melbourne-Ballarat railway, connecting at Deer Park. The other section of the Regional Rail Link uses the existing rail corridors between Southern Cross Station and Deer Park. Both sections of the overall Regional Rail Link can be developed independently of each other, although both are proposed to be developed together to reduce construction times and ensure overall project benefits are realised as early as possible. 9.2 assessment The selection and assessment process to determine the alignment for the Regional Rail Link – west of Werribee to Deer Park involved: > Preparing route concepts to identify a broad range of options considering engineering constraints and benefits.

  • Annual Report
    Annual Report 2019/2020 BENDIGO FOODSHARE ABN: 80673290971| PHONE: 03 5444 3409 FACTORY: 2/ 43 HAVILAH ROAD, LONG GULLY VICTORIA, 3550 WEB: WWW.BENDIGOFOODSHARE.ORG.AU Chairperson’s Report Well, what a rollercoaster of a year it has been. In 2019 our amazing team stepped in to double our supermarket food rescue, increase growing, cooking and sharing food, and reduce waste. With a great band of local service clubs, our Mobile Christmas Food Pantry helped get food out over the holidays. We paused and took a breath in February and then COVID struck. Since then it’s the support from you, our community, that has kept Bendigo Foodshare going. There are many highlights. I cannot name them all, but standing out are: When many of our older volunteers had to self-isolate, 246 new volunteers answered our call for help. The City of Greater Bendigo supported us with fluoro vests, hand sanitiser and access to their online volunteer management system. Local farmers have been donating much-appreciated food, including apples, chickpeas, lentils, chickens, pumpkins and local fruit and vegetables and more. Through Cafes for COVID, our local cafes and schools have produced meals for people in need. We couldn’t run our fundraising, but your donations have kept our lights on and our fridges operating. With the pandemic continuing, work hasn’t stopped. Many more changes are underway to empower our volunteer teams and keep them safe during these difficult times. I would like to thank everyone who has worked tirelessly so that we can: continue to source, rescue, sort and warehouse food, and get it out to people in need across the region; teach skills for food security; and keep our community in touch with us through the many stories and the highs and lows of life at Bendigo Foodshare.
